I don't mind the concept of ads. I didn't really mind early ads on the web. They were a lot like magazine ads, the website owners would run ads in the same broad interest category as their site. Then early AdTech happened and went fucking insane. Google's early text ads, before the DoubleCkick reverse takeover, were a sane reaction to insane web ads. Google's ads too went insane.

Now ads aren't just ads but crazy tracking mechanisms. Because of the opaque system of ad brokers they're also a malware vector because no one vets anything because money. They also very helpfully push me towards monthly data caps by loading megabytes of extra scripts on every page load and things like auto-playing videos.

So while I don't mind advertising conceptually, fuck ads and AdTech. I do everything possible to block ads just to make browsing usable, to say nothing of privacy or malware. I just hit the good ol' Back button whenever I get a "disable your adblocker" message. Disabling ad blocking doesn't just mean I see ads, it means I can barely read a web page and have to run megabytes of scripts that do who knows what.
Not sure why Intel is buying SiFive.

And I dont understand why Nvidia wants to buy ARM either.

Normally for 99% of other companies doing M&A I dont understand, the probability of CEO having self interest on their CV or dump strategy thinking are to blame.

But this is Jensen Huang and Pat Gelsinger. Which means I must be missing something.
Oh ok. Let me state China’s political interest: to not have their political sovereignty violated and be carved up by Western powers.
Not quite as simple as that. I could have still used the Hashicorp code wrongly.

Wait I read that as they start earlier, and take the time off as planned, later. Only because the exact same thing happened to me, maybe it's ambiguous?
The next great step would be to manage Tax collecting from Stripe Customer Portal. In this wet a website could redirect the user directly to stripe to fill all information for invoicing instead of saving locally, validating and sent them to stripe
I don't want deflation for one very obvious reason: I have a mortgage and it is much larger than the amount of cash I keep on hand.

Deflation is very bad for average consumers because most average consumers are in debt.
This should work with ZeroTier's Ethernet bridging capability. You could have a WiFi network that bridged right into a virtual Ethernet network that spanned sites.
Click through detection requires inclusion of at least a newsletter id in a query parameter, or something along those lines, for the links provided within the newsletter. Without that, there’s not enough specificity to get anything other than a rough idea of how many people might have clicked the link right after you sent the email.
For what it's worth, when I joined Stripe (a bit closer to 400), I told my manager that I had a 2-week vacation after my first week of work, and they were totally fine with it! I suspect this is more of a "setting expectations early" and the cost of making a change
It couldn't be disabled either without breaking out the wire snips and selectively disabling stuff and hoping that that would not have further averse affects. That car had a radar unit behind the front license plate and a camera mounted in the windshield. No idea which of the two was responsible for the false triggers.
> spent the last year field-monitoring vaccine trials

As an adult that was vaccinated, thank you for doing your part to get us all here.
>This is true for every disease. If possible it's always smart not to inject yourself with stuff.

Maybe in a vacuum where everyone else around you is guaranteed to get the shot, but based on what I saw from friends and family who contracted COVID, what I've read about its long term effects, and the ongoing uptake of the vaccine I would not say the science inclines me to take my chances without immunity.
> How could that be bad for journalism?

I don't know about journalism per se, but for journalists, they presumably arrived at the status quo as the profit maximizing option, and removing it will, to varying degrees, impoverish them.

One of the best changes I made during the pandemic for my mental health was realizing that I was starting to fall into that mental trap too and deliberately deciding not too.

I'm not always great at it, but since then, I have started to try to interpret most things I read online as charitably as possible, especially when I choose to respond to someone.

As if by magic, once I did, I started seeing that the world was a more positive place than I had realized. So much of my perception of negativity was something I was creating in the process of interpretation. It wasn't in the data itself.

Giving people more of the benefit of the doubt does set me up to occasionally be suckered. I accept that as a worthwhile price to pay to give kindness towards the majority of other people who are acting in good faith.

Sort of like the value of money, society is what we believe it to be.
I agree completely, but there are two common/popular perspectives to insurance value add. One views it as a risk pool for catastrophic events like you describe. Another views it as a service that prices risk for you to help you pay it in installments. OP seemed to be gunning for the second perspective of what insurance does based on language.

However you want to interpret insurance, there's clearly a conflict of interest that the business based entirely around assessing and managing risk publishes information that risk is higher than people thought and they are therefor more relevant as a business than people thought.
Uhhh, you don't click through a EULA in the car. You do it when you sign the purchase agreement. Do you not read those things?
Yes, very good comment; pity to those of who have lived it. I am living it now! It's kind of fascinating really, to see the coping mechanisms in a dying company. The people on the lower rungs seeming to go along with the same charade over and over, going through the motions. Waiting for another storm to pass, to get home to their families at the end of the day.
Logical Fallacies Explained
This is really important: Health care should be really, really easy to afford.

For some comparison: Since I moved out of the states, I pay less than $300 a year out of pocket (in general). My biggest expenses - a neurologist, for example - costs less than $50. As does the ER, honestly, or the clinic that deals with injuries (the ER will send folks over there). The rest is taxes, and taxes are lower than federal + state + insurance premiums in the US.

Additionally, it isn't just insurance. If you work while the normal doctor is open and you don't have paid sick days, you might not be able to go to the doctor even if health care is free simply because you can't afford to miss work. You need paid time off for this sort of thing - and honestly, parents need more days since they have responsibility for than one person.

>> Yes, yes, yes. I am totally convinced that we can all start working 20 hours per week starting next Monday and the world will just keep going as normal. Only we will be healthier, happier and richer.

Well no. Because some people will use that to work 2 jobs and make twice as much money. Then inflation will take that into account, prices will rise, and everyone will end up working 2 20-hour jobs. If you ever want to work significantly less hours I suspect it will require laws forbidding people to work more than X, and even then people will take that second job under the table.

I suggest your interpretation of such reasoning is questionable? I would posit any serious medical and or regulatory body is fully aware that an absolute statement like "no known mechanism" resulting in complications isn't worth much in the face of highly complex and sometimes still little understood mammal bio-chemistry?

What can be asserted with confidence though, is that in the presence of vaccines, severe effects of a infectious disease like COVID are significantly reduced - to the great benefit of the health system and society overall - and that, due to the quite different biological responses to vaccine vs. actual infection, severe effects in general are reduced massively. See lame-robot-hoax's comments.

Nothing in life and certainly with regards to COVID is entirely risk free.
How is changing a number not changing the code?

The autonomous claim that you have made more than once, whether true or not, does not change the fact that the smart contract is doing money transmission.
I too find the reasoning odd. I work extensively with times in my day job. If a time period starts at 2021-06-10Z22:23:00 and finishes at 2021-06-10Z22:23:01 then that represents one second. For it to represent two seconds, the end time would be 2021-06-10Z22:23:01.999... which is the same as 2021-06-10Z22:23:02. If the RFC does not explicitely state that this is the desired interpretation, I find it odd to assume this is the case.
What's the behavior your trying to get the AI to do in this example? Learn how to compute the power of 2? This is a task that can be accomplished much more simply with a different reward system. For example, have A always equal 1 and B equal 2 if it is a power if 2 and 0 otherwise.

I understand you can use non real numbers, that's not what I was asking. I'm asking what's a behaviour you can't replicate using a reward system based on real numbers.
Yes, of course they should get help, I'm mostly talking of why it's perceived that way.
I just bought a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek that's surprisingly dumb. All mechanical controls and a basic infotainment system that isn't required for the car to operate. AFAIK it doesn't have any cloud capabilities and isn't connected to the internet. I imagine the latest models are the same since they look similar inside.
Don't forget commute times, which can be bad especially in high cost of living cities where you have to live really far from things to afford a decent place.

For us it saved everyone an average of 1-2 hours per day.

Also consider the energy savings. Commuting by car every day uses tons of energy. Of course this is somewhat offset by more HVAC being consumed by houses, but I highly doubt that totally erases the savings from not driving so much. Cars are very energy intensive.

What makes you think fusion is feasible at anything less than stellar scale? It's been known about for 80 years or so at this point and still hasn't reached breakeven. No other technology has taken anywhere near that long to even be demonstrated as feasible.
If you are allowed to share, what is the typical OEM specified lifetime for the infotainment flash part? I guessed 10 years in my original comment, but that was a gut instinct and completely uninformed.
I just want the ability to time-gate notifications. It's convenient that I can shut off notifications from Teams when I'm on vacation, but why isn't it possible to disable notifications from Teams between 6pm-6am and on the weekends? Why can't I disable push notifications from my work email on Saturday and Sunday? It's the one single quality of life feature I've most hoped to see in every iOS update since they introduced granular notification control.
I switched to Jellyfin fully (from MythTV) shortly after its fork from Emby a couple of years ago.

I would suggest taking another look at it. It has really improved over the last couple of years and seems to have a very active development community that is engaged with its users. They have a dedicated subreddit and they post there a lot. [0]

I find the web interface functional enough, but the dedicated "Jellyfin" apps for Roku or Android are slightly disappointing still. They are definitely usable, just not as slick as better commercial apps. However, there is an excellent Jellyfin for Kodi addon, and that is what I use on PC and Android TV. [1]

I do have an actual mini ITX PC to host the media, an old-ish i3, which I would strongly recommend over something like a Pi.

Not sure why teh parent post got downvoted - we have plenty of examples right here in the various sub threads of people telling us exactly that. Almost none of all those who wrote a comment with their own anecdote seem to have reported it, many only realizing that there even is anything worth reporting after reading this discussion right here.

For most people it is perfectly normal not to report anything unless it's bad enough that they have to see a doctor. Most people already expect some side effects for a few days since we've been told to expect it, for anyone following the media.

A statement about under-reporting is not automatically "anti-vax".
The covid spike protein binds ace2 so the immune response to bind the spike could bind ace2 as well. Normally this is mitigated by a self selection filter but it is not out of the question that you could develop an autoimmune response.

It has caused inflation. In assets. The stock market has gone through the roof. So have some other assets, like cryptocurrencies and some real estate.

What it hasn't caused is significant inflation in consumer goods. That "hockey stick" has been going on for north of a decade, and the inflation rate for consumer goods has been under target for most of that time.

The increased money supply isn't in the hands of consumers. The only money given directly to consumers was given at a time when enormous numbers of them were out of work, reducing demand. More dollars aren't chasing fewer goods and services. They're chasing the same supply of stocks (and houses and Bitcoins).

It's long past time for the Fed to stop giving money to the asset markets. It's not "trickling down" in the form of business creation, as they hoped. It's just being used to pump up stock prices.

But that also means that this isn't the sky-is-falling inflation monetarists have predicted 97 out of the last 2 times. This really, genuinely is part of all of that "garbage" you're so tired of hearing about but which is actually true.

The inflation you seek really is obvious. It's right there, in the stock market. It doesn't require complicated analysis to see it.
You can compare apples and oranges just fine.

(You are working to argue that the comparison being made isn't useful and haven't gotten there. For instance, if I was going to build a company, I'd certainly want to know what parts of a culture were important to a company that compared so well against the longer working company)
Giving employees the choice to work remotely or come into an office is the best approach. There are tradeoffs to each, and it should really be up to the individual to decide what is best for them.
Excellent point. And I would have innoculated every single one of my kids in a heartbeat, knowing the risks, because smallpox is such a vicious disease.
What do you think about the possibility of smaller/cheaper/easier 5-axis mills?
There are two variants of the vaccine:

One is mRNA (?) variant that gets into your cells and makes them produce just the spike protein. This lets your immune system find this protein out and make antibodies.

The other contains instead a partially destroyed viruses which trains the immune system directly on all their parts - the shell, the spikes, etc.

I don't remember which company makes which kind but both are in production.
Ask HN: Feeling completely stuck, not sure what to do now
Background: Software developer with around 5 yoe, prior hobbyist for many more. Have been underpaid most of my career, found out I don’t particularly care for it. I’ve been basically been stagnating since I entered the field

I don’t see a good way For a while now, I’be considering going back to school for an unrelated field, but every time I’ve tried I can’t afford it. This is due to various reasons which aren’t worth going into, some my fault and some I can’t control. I can’t even afford to go back to a community college at the moment for stupid reasons. Money is one thing, but the time/opportunity cost is significantly worse. I could maybe manage to afford it, by waiting one or two years, but that’s pushing too much time and reduces the value I’d get out of it.

I’ve Aldo considered maybe trying to move to a different area in software development that I may like better, but that’s an even bigger gamble than going back to school. I’m unlikely to be good enough to work on the things that interest me, plus there’s a smaller amount of roles that tend to lean towards the senior side. My background and experience will almost certainly be a mismatch. It’d probably take me a year or two to feel anywhere near confident enough to apply, and I don’t want to sit around for much longer. I feel that I have a way better chance of getting into school, following through and doing what I need to get a decent job in a new field versus being able to get a job in software development I would like, though the payoff may be a bit quicker/ come a bit sooner. Not too interested in just jumping into any old position making more than I do either, been there done that. Money isn’t a huge concern in the long term anyway. I’ve barely been able to bring myself to write much code in that last couple years. It’s fun to think about, talk about and occasionally plan, but I’d rather just do something else most of the time.
I personally felt more connected and more aware of what everyone was doing when we switched to remote because people had to overcommunicate and write docs instead of having private conversations I wasn’t invited to.
I can't speak directly for OP, but I think the specific part you are quoting was being facetious. No one would consider power windows as a "smart" feature. But where is the line between a smart power window and a dumb power window? For example, are they just simple windows with an up and down button? Are there options for disabling the window buttons in the back seat for child safety? Are there options for the back seat windows to only go down halfway? Will the windows go down completely with one touch or do you have to hold the button? Can you set the windows to close when you turn off the ignition or lock the car? You might not care about any of those features, but some people will. That is what leads to bloat.

> how do you tell if your team is spending 50% of the time slacking

You don't! As long as they deliver what you ask of them, and do it well, it is none of your business if they used 40 hours a week or 1 hour a week doing it, if they played with their kid while doing it, loaded their dishwasher, or called their mother while doing it.
Basically: I feel really stuck, I’ve identified a couple paths out, but they both require me to remain stuck for longer than I think I can take, one is more appealing, but is expensive in time and money, the other is less appealing, less likely to be achieved, but may come with a quicker and bigger payout. Any ideas on what I should do?

But they do? Apple is literally in the news business, the services business (many of which rely on ad revenue to compete with Apple's own services), increasingly in the ad business itself (revenue is expected to rise to 11 billion in 2025, growing quickly)[1], and as I just laid out in the post above, has a huge interest in just laying waste to independent revenue streams outside of their own channels, in the exact same way digital platforms overall benefited from laying waste to the small and mid-sized ad-industry.

That’s true, but extremely unlikely politically.

As it stands today, using local action and control to make new oil infrastructure painful and expensive to build is the best way for activists to raise the cost of oil and trim its consumption. This comes with obvious tradeoffs, rail transit is less safe, but it’s an available avenue given that the legislature is hopelessly corrupt and unwilling to do anything to curb oil consumption directly.

I didn’t get the impression they were saying never to do it (maybe I missed that bit in the text).

I think they specifically said, when piping, don’t force functions to handle the error of the upstream function.

Because each error needs to be handled differently, the downstream function’s implementation becomes tied to the upstream function. Then the downstream function is only usable with said upstream function.
