The exact situation is (intentionally or not) very obscure to outsiders. There’s a research paper[0] dedicated to the question of who actually owns Huawei. Its authors found that:

> The Huawei operating company is 100% owned by a holding company, which is in turn approximately 1% owned by Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei and 99% owned by an entity called a “trade union committee” for the holding company.

> We know nothing about the internal governance procedures of the trade union committee. We do not know who the committee members or other trade union leaders are, or how they are selected.

> Trade union members have no right to assets held by a trade union.

> What have been called “employee shares” in “Huawei” are in fact at most contractual interests in a profit-sharing scheme.

> Given the public nature of trade unions in China, if the ownership stake of the trade union committee is genuine, and if the trade union and its committee function as trade unions generally function in China, then Huawei may be deemed effectively state-owned.

> Regardless of who, in a practical sense, owns and controls Huawei, it is clear that the employees do not.

For what it’s worth, Huawei’s own legal chief described[1] it as a private company back in 2019.

I agree with you, the difference is what are perceivable dangers and what not. The problem about the treadmill is that for a child (and an adult) the treadmill is not immediately dangerous, in particular the danger of being sucked under.

Modern playground design is actually taking this into consideration by designing with manageable dangers (climbing up high ladders etc.) but removing things that are not obviously dangerous, like for example gaps where heads can get stuck
So, does no one else see this as a referral gimmick site? I don't see anything on this site that is really buy for life.
Question: How do you pull all this info? Web scraping? Official APIs?
This is a classic...
AAA Games, stable drivers variety of Windows/Mac only Apps.
That's not at all what I'm suggesting.

What I'm saying is that when applying first-order thinking, it sounds like "more tax" would hurt. Therefore people who ask for more tax are most likely thinking a bit farther than the tip of their nose.
Genuine question, what do you mean by "use Cardano"?
Use it for what? Can I create borrowing/lending decentralized platforms?

Can I launch my NFT marketplace on it (at this moment)? Or perhaps create a DAO for the governance of a Dapp?

I don't understand how Cardano is even a choice right now.
I've looked at G15 Ryzen - it's USB 3.2 and sould out - so no USB 4.0 and limited availability like I said. I don't have any inside scoops into this industry but it could easily be that they are putting the new/untested parts in to lower tier products and reserving top tier ones for the tested configuration with a partner they know can deliver. Put it simply - X1 with AMD would probably sell out in a week, then they would be stuck with people waiting for that one over Intel, and they would cross Intel who still supplies them the majority of chips - sounds like a lose-lose to me.

I'd like to get a top tier AMD ultra portable for sure (eg. a Surface Pro) but AMD seems completely owhervelmed by demand in all areas and they prioirtise laptops the lowest (from their own release timelines and previous statements)
People really have trouble understanding run-off events. You do realize that global temperature increase will not be linear? A slight increase in temperature melts ice that previously trapped plenty of CO2, which will increase the green house effect, increasing temperatures, and here is your feed back loop.
AWS Amplify is an abomination and should never be used.
And how do you expose that function globally ?

Annotations and CGLib -> reflection nonsense and boilerplate - if you tried that and compare it to something like a dynamic language with open types (eg. JS/TS) you are just being dishonest if you're saying the two are anywhere close to comparable.

I remember doing a node ORM extension where I just injected standard revision management primitives into the entity as a part of repository. That would take an insane ammount of work in Java in comparison to get the same API functionality (namely it was mostly transaparent to the consumer)
The WAT talk was rhetorically nice because it managed to joke about weird corners of the language without going into ranty programmer mode, but opted for a more gentle style of bemused boggling.

It also kind of cemented for me that weird edge cases don't actually matter in practice (in my experience), and that a language can have lots to make fun of while still being lovely to use.

Income inequality is a destabilizing force. One of the purposes of taxation is wealth redistribution, and that can be "mathematically" quite useful if you like your system to have an equilibrium state.

> He wasn't bad as an engineer, but he had this crazy OCD to a point that even keys in YAML file should be ordered alphabetically.

Eh, I am guilty of that (for myself, I don't run around other people's code).

I don't know if it's OCD but I clearly remember the moment I decided to order keys (in yaml, json, etc.): after a debugging session where I lost time because I was scanning whole lists with my eyes, looking for a particular key and thought "it'd be easier if it was ordered according to alphabet and not domains of concern".

Wasn't there a debate/online conversation about `girly code` a decade ago ? About tabs, alignment, etc ? Thank you prettier :).
You can decide to give a bonus because your company did well, and tell folks it is probably a one-time bonus.

It is a bit difficult to then make this apply to Netflix, though: They are Huge at this point. If I remember correctly, they profit. They can probably safely give small raises, increasing overall financial security for workers. They can, however, still give employees a one-time bonus.
Because there's a BDFL at the top. Linus understands that the whole point of a kernel is having a stable binary interface to run programs on, anytime somebody wants to break userspace he goes on a rant and rejects the idea, rightfully so.

Many other projects do not follow this way of thinking or don't have a BDFL. They break API's because... someone felt like it? Every once in a while I dig into the changelogs or migration guides of projects (sometimes they don't even have a migration guide which is just awful) and you'll see things like changed names of functions, swapped argument orders or even complete removal of functions. But why? We don't know and my guess is it usually boils down to someone "feeling like it".
Kudos for that clarification. Years ago we did a bit of consultancy at a fashion company who drove their biannual fashion releases via data held in Excel, and their pain point was that even scrolling through the rows was agonisingly slow. Clearly all those people needed was either better desktop machines and/or an RDBMS, not an entirely new technology !
What's your source for debunking my definition? What's your own definition? According to social sciences, and according to Wikipedia:

> Left-wing politics supports social equality and egalitarianism, often in critique of social hierarchy. Left-wing politics typically involves a concern for those in society whom its adherents perceive as disadvantaged relative to others as well as a belief that there are unjustified inequalities that need to be reduced or abolished.[1] According to emeritus professor of economics Barry Clark, left-wing supporters "claim that human development flourishes when individuals engage in cooperative, mutually respectful relations that can thrive only when excessive differences in status, power, and wealth are eliminated."

> Leftist economic beliefs range from Keynesian economics and the welfare state through industrial democracy and the social market to the nationalization of the economy and central planning, to the anarcho-syndicalist advocacy of a council- and assembly-based self-managed anarchist communism.

Social-liberal keynesian economics, according to that definition, is very-moderate left politics (center-left), whereas marxism or anarchism are more on the left. See also politicalcompass.org to get more information on this topic you obviously don't know about despite trying to lecture me.

Also related, in the field of software engineering, we use the word "copyleft" precisely as in "abolition of private property" because copyright ensures monopoly on ideas and their expression (private property), whereas copyleft ensures they belong to everyone (collective property).

As an end note, please note that abolishing private property doesn't mean taking away people's possessions/belongings. We anarchists refer to that as usage-based property (not sure about translation, we use "propriété d'usage" in french) where property is based on needs and not on the dogmatic worship of a piece of paper (property title). That is a central disagreement with the marxists who believe a central State and its police ("dictatorship of the proletariat") should be in charge of deciding what you can or can't use, which is effectively the same as private property with the State as owner/enforcer of everything.
According to the article the majority of hashing power is situated in China, so China does control Bitcoin after all. So people are gambling their life savings on a coin controlled by the CCP.
Gaseuous lead condenses on all cooler surfaces, but due to the high surface tension of liquid lead, doesn't bond to those surfaces. Leading to a cover of mobile lead dust over everything, which makes breathing dangerous. Touching it is also not that healthy because the dust has a high surface area, is already oxidized and therefore too easy to dissolve in bodily fluids and sweat.

The situation is of course dependent on a whole lot of boiling lead having been around, solid cold lead doesn't really produce a lot of dust if you leave it alone.
Have you been googling about your symptoms, illnesses or anything else that can have a connection to drugs like Voltaren?
I am management and I work at a company that is similar to the post you are replying to and I would never get used to it. If someone does get used to it they have serious value issues (same as if employees take bonuses for granted).
Yes, many places are willing to have lower productivity in exchange for higher quality of life. The US has a different culture and has most economically dominant companies.
The reader will find dozens of suggestion in this thread about how coin X is more "efficient".

Note that efficiency would mean producing the same properties but with less resources. Not merely using less resources. While experimentation is certainly desired, it's a fallacy that any coin has actually reproduced bitcoin in a more efficient way.

To name a couple,

- Bitcoin had what some call an "immaculate conception" where there was no expectation that such a system would work in the first place and where the founder was anonymous. This creates a very different history in comparison with the founder led, pre mined, frothy market launches of today.

- Bitcoin has stood the test of time. With each year in production that passes, there is more confidence that the system and specific implementation is sound.

Once these other coins have stood in the market for 10 years straight and continued to retain the confidence in their protocol, the comparisons can start.

I’ve found executives often play this game of ”I solved the problem” when they have in fact found someone else to fix things.
A lot of back-end people have already moved into ML or blockchain and I expect the trend to continue.

I'm surprised to see Alpha Centauri mentioned only once. It was a real gem and truly ahead of its time with some of its mechanics. The storytelling (something Civilization never really bothered with) was also something special.
Absolutely. Please lead me not into temptation with regards to giving me yet one more reason to bitch about how much it sucks to be me with regards to sexism on HN.

But in this case real corruption would be a former employee of theirs regularly bending the rules for them. If no one else was chronically a day late and dollar short and expecting accommodation and understanding for it, telling them "no" and expecting them to actually comply with the rules is called professional ethics not corruption.

Lots of shitty people get away with their shit by counting on other people being "nice" and honorable no matter how badly they themselves behave. That's actual corruption and such people often want to argue that not going along with their garbage is somehow you doing something wrong when, in fact, going along with their expectation of special dispensation in the name of "niceness" is the bad thing.

Giggling at their crap biting them in the ass because someone is actually enforcing the rules for once instead of rewarding their manipulative BS is not corruption. It's schadenfreude.

People who are used to doing the right thing even when it pains them very much are not bad people for getting a small thrill out of karma being a bitch to chronic assholes who think the rules don't apply to them.

I don't know if this was an instance of corruption or not. Neither do you. The devil is in the details and neither of us knows all of the details.

But, no, "clearly and obviously corruption" is not true. There are other possible explanations.

Having dealt with asshole customers who wanted the moon when the rules explicitly forbade that, I can well imagine this was only schadenfreude and he didn't know how to clearly explain that when he told the anecdote years after the fact to a group of friends.

Do you really think "good government" means someone staying late and doing work off the clock because their jackass former employer is showing up again just as the place is being locked up? If they weren't routinely a minute too late, this wouldn't have cost them anything on the order of the amount of money they screwed him out of.

I don't think such accommodation would constitute good government. The fact that being held to the rules was a constant source of friction that cost them royally implicitly suggests they didn't play by the rules. It implicitly suggests they routinely and regularly were late and their paperwork was botched and they expected to simply get away with it.

Being screwed by them wrt the bonus money may have protected him from stupidly "being nice" to them and thereby ending up on legal charges for corruption. That is often a slippery slope where "just this once because we are friends" becomes "in for a penny, in for a pound" and you don't know how to back out of it without being burned.
They both suffer from the same problem, of being treated as a private market and not as common/public goods. Housing and Internet should be free for everyone, just like food/healthcare/education...
The OP basically admitted to fraud and you're throwing "success is robbery" around? No, but robbery is robbery. What is this "boys will be boys" talk? Well golly gee them boys sure got up to some corporate fraud but gosh darn if they ain't good at heart. Nearly facing consequences sure rattled their jimmies good! Aww shucks I can't stay mad at them; go ahead, give em their million dollar exit! Now get on, ya little rascal!
This kind of thing is why we don't do daily standups anymore. The gradual psychological grind of the same, forced interpersonal dynamics every 24 hours can get to be incredibly oppressive.
If people are using Bitcoin to exfiltrate cash and skirt monetary controls then they'd definitely want to tank Bitcoin.
The dsym is basically just a macho anyways. It used to just emit it as part of the main binary and then asked dsymutil to split it off.

If you do want to retain it entirely you can set `split-debuginfo` to `off` and it will remain in the final executable.

The advantage of the `unpacked` version is that the debug info just stays associated with the original object files instead of the executable. This makes handling them harder obviously but is good enough for a lot of use cases.
> the answer here is maybe making sure kids can't activate it

That doesn't help if a kid or pet are caught in there while the adult is on the treadmill, especially at higher speeds or when reaction time is slowed due to wearing headphones.

The answer is to install protection. Having slats instead of the classic band doesn't make it impossible to protect that pinch point, rather just makes the machine bulkier (longer) and less aesthetically pleasing. There are plenty of mechanisms and sensors that can detect something being caught in there and immediately stop operation but they cost more.

See the video above, with the small child being slowly pulled under the treadmill. The machine not being able to detect *it lifted off the ground repeatedly while operating" in order to come to a full stop immediately is the kind of thing that happens when half-assed engineers meet half-assed managers, thinking they can make a "full-assed" product.
No I’m almost certain I haven’t. Because I’ve used it before and I don’t really have any questions about it so I ran out and I just go buy more.

At this stage I’m just assuming it’s a coincidence.

It has made me realize the holy grail for google and advertisers is to access your bank transactions and advertise to you based on that.
I can relate to each one of those points. It's awful to feel treated unequally even though you're doing the same work. Before this trend of remote work, usually the solution was to just migrate to a developed country.

A. Laws aren’t written in plain English (or other vernacular), they are written in legalese. This is why lawyers have to train so long and why people should not represent themselves.

B. Hence the alternative of “don’t let the company which runs the algorithm benefit from the results of that algorithm”, which I’ve phrased differently in each post on this topic.

There are really clear conflicts of interests, even if you believe (as I happen to) that they are not exploiting their positions to the detriment of consumers: Google has products and services which people search for using Google’s own algorithm; Apple gets to write and enforce the rules of the App Store while having products in that store; Amazon sells both e-book readers and owns a e-book brand & platform, and would benefit from the Amazon.{com|co.uk|de|etc} stores listing the Kindle devices higher than they might otherwise be.

Again, I am not claiming they are actually engaging in anti-consumer behaviours (that would be outside of my expertise, and anecdotally I don’t feel like I’m being harmed by any of this), I’m saying it’s a conflict of interest and society is suspicious.
Interesting UI. Huge titles next to minuscule fonts (webapp and mac app). Also wasn't aware you get an allotment of just a few tasks before you have to pay.

Cool problem space though. I do think the amount of friction that exists to do these "microtasks" on a day to day is ridiculous. That said, I have just built my own solutions to these problems and this value proposition wasn't quite enough to sway me into using the product.

If I had one recommendation, I would say fix the UI/UX. If it was pretty and usable, you could get some buyers.
I’ve used Gerrit at 3 different places, now including at Google. It is, by far, the best git experience.

The patch workflow is smooth and just a great experience. It is vastly improved by some git aliases (which you can set up in your gitconfig), but is, in general, very smooth. It allows for local branches to a single upstream, topic tagging, and a reasonable learning curve. Much better than GH.

It would be very well served to have a web-based offering (like GitHub/Lab).
As a small caveat, the 5.6 weeks (28 days) is allowed to include the eight statutory bank holidays, and almost always does (i.e. the worker can't insist that they not be paid for the bank holiday, and take the holiday day some other time). So the minimum amount of non-discretionary holiday that a worker can accrue is usually four weeks.

In practice the actual baseline offered in many jobs seems to be five weeks, plus bank holidays.
Authors have the same problem as musicians.

And app developers.
"13th payment" is the same as getting paid every two weeks (quite common), but concentrated onto one moment instead of evenly paced.
In management you can't really deflect responsibility downwards.
My experience from western Europe is that only regulation forces ISPs to play fair with competitors. Even while the law is VERY VERY clear about it, they're still playing deaf and you essentially have to go to court to have the law applied (which smaller providers can't afford). Deregulation means supremacy of the private company, without any legal recourse, which can never be fair to users.
Do you really not think accomplices to a crime ever deserve to face consequences for the crime? It sucks what OP went through but I'm not going to say a bank robber shouldn't go to jail because he's real sad about the whole thing.
Is it an American thing to vigorously defend corporations from accountability to the public?

Twitter and even here seem full of people defending Peloton when clearly there have been enough incidents to warrant some design changes.

It seems like a lot of people want to advocate returning to a time where businesses had little responsibility when it came to the dangerous products they churned out.

There are plenty of developing countries where this is still the case and lots of people/children unnecessarily die as a result. I imagine it would be hell to live in a place where many innocuous products are dangerous and people reguarly lose their kids. I don't want to live in that world.
Fair enough yeah I do agree with the spectrum between "jaded employee" and "enthusiastic achiever"
