>> Joining together for a common purpose
> ... is political.

I think the author is referring to the mission statement of companies. While some missions statements have political elements, I can see plenty of mission statements that give a common purpose and are not political. Examples: "Accellerate the advent of sustainable transport" -- Tesla, "Build the best CPU" -- Intel (?).

It is well known that a strong mission statement is an important motivation for people to join and continue to work at companies (e.g. Pink's Autonomy, Mastery and Purpose Framework). So to describe a company as a group of people who are joining together for a common purpose is not wrong.

(Of course, there are of course many more factors that influence work-place selection and motivation.)

Can you elaborate where you see this all rooted in politics?

Really cool story.

Often it feels like "developer UI" is just "slap some buttons around and hook them to the handlers, call it a day". At least that's how Gimp feels to this day.
Is that how you characterise the activism at bandcamp, which said "maybe this racist list of 'funny names' is racist, and maybe we shouldn't do that?"

Because, to write off 'how about not being racist' as "saying the right words and dis-empower Gen-X", or "[using] a platform for their own interests" is ...

racist.

And being anti-racist is political activism, and that's good.
I believe Yabai requires you to turn off SIP. However I really appreciate these security features so I never tried it.
Awesome, so now I'm inspired to try some web graphics. This being HN, can someone suggest a good place to start in terms of tutorials/learning resources?
Also I think it is good to be able to use the python code as testcases/validation on smaller datasets for the C code.
They likely mean any cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is simply the only type that is generally known and hence synonymous with all things crypto.

Wow docker company has so little goodwill left to erode. Truly rock bottom.
I was about to post this. Highly recommend it for anyone interested in dishwasher efficiency.
That was my attitude for a long time.

Til I realised it was a false dichotomy.

I don't want to work for a company that puts its need above mine. That company isn't worth my energy.

The correct decision is to take an approach that involves producing quality code and documentation as you go.

If you don't have the time available to do that then you don't actually have the time to do that piece of work.

Doing so regardless, or becoming expeditors is the worst thing you can do for a company. It creates a race to the bottom which in turn creates a god awful place to work.

This feedback loop continues to worsen as you struggle to hire and struggle to retain.

Eventually, you're fucking Comcast.

Not sure where you get that from, "Bob" is made/from Paris, France https://daan.tech/en/about-daan-tech/

In Western/South West Europe (Portugal, Spain, France), full-sized dishwashers are a bit more uncommon I think, especially in single/double room flats in bigger metropolitan areas where flat sizes tend to be in the smaller range. As an anecdote, I've lived in maybe ~20 places and only two of them had come with a dishwasher, only one of them was an apartment.

This is the first time I hear about "Bob" and my current place couldn't fit a full-size dishwater but in order to save time and water, I might actually get this. The price is a bit high for what it is though.
Very much actively doing so on my end where nearly all work in the industry is in Python, with some Matlab, C, C++, and Julia sprinkled in.

Python is a great high level language for basically everything, but hardcore low latency apps. I can parse text, connect to databases, do sparse matrix computations on massive matrices, calculate network flows, generate large node-graph diagrams, use a Python based API to connect to any vendor software I've seen, do any kind of statistical analysis thing I need with pandas, amazing and free IDE allows me to use a REPL, code editor, and data structure viewer with ease, Python notebooks for education...etc etc. I've frequently found that I can rewrite a vendor's 10k line C++ program in a few pages of Python as the built-in Python data structures make text parsing extremely flexible and simple.
Wait, why is this a controversial stand?

Is it really that bad to not wanting a random torch app to not use all your monthly data on God knows what?

Mhm. If you are single and use one plate, one cup per meal, you run the dishwasher every two days.
> If laying down your belief that racism is harmful and wrong is necessary for you 'mission', then the mission is itself harmful and wrong, and no amount of 'fellowship' is going to change that.

Absolutely! I did not see anyone at Basecamp questioning this.
My understanding is that lethality and transmisability are typically a one or the other type situation. Viruses like HIV and to some extent COVID that kill their host effectively but slowly are rare. The typical case is to either multiple quickly inside one host (i.e. kill the host quickly) or move quickly from host to host (i.e. spread rapidly without killing the host because you need the host to be a vector)
I cannot take the style of that article seriously. It seems to be about the magazine Signal, a Nazi magazine. E.g.:

> Signal was an insidious tool of Nazi ideology, meant to counteract an image of fanaticism and indiscriminate violence: by late autumn 1943, as many Jews as Signal readers had been murdered in Poland’s extermination camps.

There is absolutely no relation between the magazine and the Holocaust. The date is arbitrarily chosen. And reading literally, it says that millions of Signal readers had been murdered. It's writing at its worst.

For those of you who haven't opened the article yet, a question: can you guess which person is named first, in the article's opening sentence, two words in?
If Google or Facebook would have had to pay the full license fees for one of the major Unix distributions they would have simply never gotten off the ground in the first place. One of those 'uncomfortable truths' I guess that people simply don't want to acknowledge.

You judge from a subjective view. There's no discoverability in the screenshot you shared.

It's all subjective and a product for the mass market looks different from a product that serves a very specific niche.
Maybe they should be held responsible for the scam apps they let through then. Seems like they can afford it right?

No, because the federal government, including the post office, has sovereign immunity from lawsuits. There is the Federal Tort Claims Act that carves out some exceptions but I think is silent on the Post Office. Here is an article from the claims journal: https://www.claimsjournal.com/columns/road-to-recovery/2020/...

I once worked on a case where the client was hit by a bus operated by the County (so a local government in a particular state), the suit was not entirely barred but there was a cap on damages which would not otherwise exist if say it were a bus being operated by a private company (which would of course generally have a commercial insurance policy as well). It has been almost 10 years but at the time I think the cap was $200,000. Interestingly there is/was a mechanism to request the state (I think the state legislature) waive the damages cap on a case by case basis, but unless your firm was politically connected and donated to political campaigns good luck with that.
Presumably from £ being the primary currency in the readme. I think GP means the hacking is from UK, (and contributors) rather than the manufacturer of this mental device, which is surprising because who in the UK would have one of these when 'normal' dishwashers are basically ubiquitous.
Given the cartridge pricing, the machine itself is likely a loss leader, or at best sold at low margins.
The tabs are ridiculously ineffective! I had issues for a year with my dishwasher until one of the handymen looking at it suggested to use the powder detergent for the compartments instead. Tried it once and it made a night-and-day difference. Never going back to those shitty tabs if I end up with a full-sized dishwasher in the future.
I wish entire wikipedia was as informative as this one page.

Would be happy to pay for some commercial encyclopedia of that kind and quality.

When I was a child I absolutely loved Encarta 96. It fit on a single CD and had enough interactive material. With today’s computing, network and disk possibilities I don’t see any reasons why nowadays there is no single curated source of truth about the world around us.

Instead, all the information is spread around the vast amount of resources around World Wide Web and in order to find something meaningful you sometimes have to trudge through hordes of bullshit.
1. I can dig splitting up big tech companies, that can make sense in some form.
2. But why should workers get 78% of profits? Since when is that a sensible thing to do for a company?
Sounds like a terrible idea. You loose the fallback, because Markdown treated as HTML instead of text is pretty much unreadable. (block the script to see what I mean: the rules about newlines etc in HTML do work differently)
You might have already tried this: I’ve had fantastic performance starting a remote emacs server and using emacs (often in terminal mode) through ssh. It certainly has a one time cost: setup your local terminal for all keys to go through, and sync your init files. I still use tramp for certain rare cases but most work happens on 3 remote and 1 local machine with four different emacs servers running, and a couple of additional non-development machines that I simply ssh into from within emacs shells.
It really isn’t, right?

I didn’t do it much. My wife seemed to think it was her job, and I wasn’t going to argue.

But I was surprised to discover that infant poop doesn’t hardly smell. And also surprised that when I got puked on, it didn’t bother me... it felt as if I had thrown up on myself, which is not fun, but also not really that terrible.
This is proper HN content!

Read an interesting article that stated that crypto is not private enough to enable good money transfer for criminals. Cash is still the best. In general it stated that crypto currencies are rather useless.

https://www.currentaffairs.org/2021/04/why-cryptocurrency-is...

And a couple notes about blockchain

Personally I have not dig deeper into the pros and cons of crypto but my gut feeling is that it’s pretty useless.

You have the evidence in front of you. It seems like you didn't test the question out before putting it in front of interviewees. You need to take into account stress as well.

I've been in my current place for about 5 years and have never used the dishwasher. Sink works fine and is almost instant if you wash everything immediately.
That article doesn't disprove a microwave attack at all, it just says there is no known public evidence that matches up with what is described.

Fact is that if this is real, it is the work of a sophisticated adversary that may have found a novel way to attack people. Even going back to the 60's there was stuff done in spycraft that would seem implausible to most people even today.

A relevant example is the use of microwaves to activate a passive antenna through walls to eaves drop on conversations (look up "The Thing Listening Device). Again this was done many decades ago. Not too far fetched to consider that maybe Russia intelligence services found a way to weaponized microwaves.

I think many product designers try to replicate the success of printer cartridges. I try to avoid buying any device that limits the input or supply especially those that require a cartridge.

It's a clear method to milk consumers and they can hardly justify the benefit in most cases.

I even don't buy the idea of capsule coffee machines. I like those that give you the option to use pads, but not those that only accept capsule. The environment impact is one reason, but I also want the freedom of choosing the supply and the having control on the running cost.
If the questions can just be remembered then they're completely pointless

As I've mentioned it allows you to audit the generated files. You can run scanners on the result if you want to.
I’m not really sure what point you’re trying to make. For lack of a better word you seem salty about something but it’s really not clear exactly what. Do you want a 90's era “powered by Linux” image on the Google or Facebook homepage?

However the fact remains: Facebook’s use of PHP is an implementation detail, as is it’s use of Linux.

My experience as well, different tabs have massively different quality.
You are pretty much exactly describing how corruption works in a well regulated country. Since officials can't just pick the contractor but have to take the cheapest bid for the given requirements, they have to doctor the requirements until the contractor they want to hire has the best chance of making the best bid (or be the only contractor that effectively make a bid at all). This is exactly how it works from the lowest up to the highest level of government.

Since actual corruption is so hard to measure, we rank countries along a line of "corruption perception", i.e. how confident are people. Germany has an extremely good reputation. I believe you have to look at individual projects though and use a first principles approach: how much should it cost? What level of incompetence is believable vs plain corruption? Does the project make sense given larger government policy in the first place? Airport Berlin-Brandenburg, Wirecard, Nordstream are just the larger known cases, where corruption is the only possible explanation, there are tons of smaller projects as well, on which nobody bothers to put the spotlight.
Yes, I found it strange that anyone in the UK would find value in this device enough to ship one... nevermind hack the cartridge.
Tiresome how so many of these projects have to become a platform for politics that have absolutely nothing to do with the project goals.

So, this is a terrible UI for the feature, but there is an X button which hides the dialog. Apparently it used to be called "snooze", from this blog post [0]. All in all, it's really gross that they put an "upgrade to not update" logo on the button, but the actual behavior and the underlying reasons for it make sense. Supporting older versions is hard, if you are going to indefinitely ban a version, it's going to increase the burden of support on Docker, so they make it a pro feature.

I usually buy Dawn dish soap. It really works well. A machinist friend of mine said they use it as a degreaser at work.

A few weeks ago while standing ten deep in Safeway, I read the label.

Right on front, they listed at least 11 ingredients. Nothing looked outrageous, but I thought about all the times I didn't rinse that well.

I now stoped using it on my dishes.

I think the lawyers told them to list the ingredients in bold print?

Anyhoo--I now rinse much better than before, and on the lookout for just plain soap.
common purpose and are not political. Examples: "Accellerate the advent of sustainable transport" -- Tesla

Tesla is extremely political if you want it to be. Exactly what you choose to mean by the word 'sustainable' has all kinds of political implications. The core argument for going electric and solar over internal combustion and coal power is rooted in the environmental movement and based on a belief in global warming and climate change. That is 'political'

Equally pushing for autonomous driving can be seen as taking stance against all the people that will lose their jobs if self driving cars and trucks become a reality. Clearly taking a stance for Capital and against The Workers. That is 'political'.
Yeah, it's especially egregious between pro-nuclear and pro-solar activists, where they fight each other while hydrocarbons keep being burnt. It's insane.
I recall reading somewhere the majority of the power consumed by the helicopter is used for heat to prolong the life of the battery cells.
The code you to actually use it is pretty dangerous - you need to keep the index and “main pointer” in separate variables, but always use them together. And indexes are all plain untyped integers, so no compiler will warn you if you use wrong index variable. And GC is no longer thing, so “write after free” and friends come back.

Going to column arrays in high-level languages brings back many of the C bugs that we really hoped to forget.
Pretty much lost me on the presentation; finally lost me on 'these things completely fly in the face of the way most dishwashers are designed to work'.

Uh, what? Must be a US thing, whatever the alternative is, because that's (those detergent, salt, perfume, whatever else tablets in a water-soluble wrapper are) all I've ever known. (UK.)

You can pick old cars which are easy to fix and barely have any software. Old Volvos come to mind. They are also very safe, not just for their age. If safety is a primary concern you might consider something ridiculously massive like an F350. Those vehicles also don't have a lot of Software and with the weight and the size most modern SUVs with sleeping drivers will simply be consumed.
First line: "Trump"; second line: "Nazi". Sociology should be renamed "far-left propaganda". This is the most bullshit science ever.

There very well could be a selective outrage, but I'm almost as far removed from this as possible. HN as a groupmind usually scolds the official government, because the assumption is that they have the most effective control over behavior of people.

I simply said that Modi/BJP is responsible wherever they are.

Of course the other parties are responsible too.

And we can simply apply the Spiderman rule: more power, more responsibility. Modi is the PM, BJP is the ruling party. (And yes, of course in some states BJP's influence is lesser than some other party's. And there the responsibility of that particular party is greater.)

On top of all this it also depends what was the rhetoric of the other parties. Were they also loudly claiming victory over the pandemic? Naturally Modi trapped himself into a bit of a corner with that. (Even if facists can usually disregard/bend reality, but we shall see how the electorate takes this dissonance.)

Maybe that is the price of censorship resistance. Maybe that is the price of sound money. Maybe if you don’t have a system like this imperial hegemonic nations like the US will print money to stay ahead with impunity. Maybe, for all those things, that’s a price worth paying.
You should dig a little deeper, so that you get an actual understanding instead of a gut feeling about something you don't know anything about. Read about the technology, learn how it works, read what proponents like about it and what opponents dislike about it. That way you can form a proper opinion.
Some UK flats are tiny and can't fit a full-size dishwasher.

Well, in this case this was during a Q&A session, so he was likely asked about bitcoin by shareholders (it was a shareholder meeting) to get his opinion.

Plus he makes it clear in the article that he finds it distasteful "shuffling out of your extra billions of billions of dollars to somebody who just invented a new financial product out of thin air."

Which I mean, if you're somebody who has "extra billions of dollars" lying around, you might not care to shuffle it around either.

As for other billionaires, at least one is actually into bitcoin (Elon Musk).
