Absolutely agreed. The other big example I can think of is Kojima, one of very few game directors I personally consider a true auteur. I just wish he still has people around him that could tell him, "So the player defeats the boss, learns about her genuinely heartbreaking tragic backstory as victim to vicious war crimes, and then... takes photos of her in lingerie? While she walks around and makes suggestive poses? Is... Is that really the tone we want to go for at this point?"

It's a shame, considering how on-point a lot of the messages in his earlier games were (the speech by the AI on the role of automated systems filtering human knowledge to "create context" out of endless junk data streams - in a game that came out in 2001! - always sticks out to me), even if sometimes his actual scientific knowledge was a bit shaky. (You know why Solid Snake never lost his full head of hair? Male pattern baldness is a dominant gene!)
You can sue them, you just won't win if it goes to trial. But most lawsuits don't end in a courtroom. It's sometimes cheaper to pay off a lawsuit you'd win in court than to go through the process.
And if you read any of the profiles of Chris Roberts or people talking about working at RSI on Star Citizen (Kotaku did a multi-part series on it years ago), you'll see an image of nothing more than a petty, micromanaging boss who does nothing but interfere in literally everything, resulting in a dysfunctional studio. This isn't surprising; any cursory glance at their roadmaps, their former promises, their history, their delays etc, clearly paints a picture of severe mismanagement, no matter how much fans excuse it.

In fact, one aspect of Freelancer that's been left to history is the fact that when Microsoft bought some equity in his studio before acquiring them entirely, some producers claimed he later used part of that money to fund his failed movie ventures instead of Freelancer, which were also later held afloat by a weird German tax fraud scheme (the mastermind of which later went to jail, which also resulted in German law changing and his whole excursion into the film industry collapsing instantly). His response to this was "it's fine, because it was general equity stake and not earmarked for Freelancer." The fact they had to wrestle Freelancer away from him is absolutely not surprising when he quite literally was dicking around on C-tier shitfilms like Wing Commander while people busted their ass.

People here are mentioning the notion of auteurs, of visionaries, etc. I disagree; that's an insult to actual creatives. Hideo Kojima is creative and has proven himself time and time again with both his repeated success and his wide array of unusual work. Everything I've seen of him indicates to me that Chris Roberts is, essentially, an overly ambitious child of a man and petty boss who was lucky Richard Garriott ever gave him a chance, and has ridden on almost nothing more than his legacy at Origin Systems, and has been desperately attempting to capture that again ever since.

There's a weird sort of reverse classism I saw in my relatives going up. You might summarize it as 'people without dirt under their nails don't understand shit'.

As someone who went through endurance sports, being the fix-it guy, and a CS program I always sort of had one foot in both worlds and didn't really engage in this kind of rhetoric.

But as I've been accumulating more woodworking tools and getting a lot of dirt under my nails building a giant garden, I'm starting to see their point.

This device is going to gum up, being exposed to UV all day, dust, wind, and rain. The tolerances on this device are way tighter than any in situ environment is going to allow. And you're going to kneel on that track and it's gonna hurt like a motherfucker.

Can confirm the first part - had the utility turn on a meter remotely, so they can turn it off too.

Also, around here (Portugal) you're billed for the maximum power in your contract - it starts at 3.45 kVA, I think, with 6.9 and 10.35 levels commonly available (at 230 volts, that's 15, 30 or 45 amps). Used to be that a hardware circuit breaker enforced that limit, nowadays it's the meter cutting off supply in case of excess power draw.

Can you point to a source?

All I can find are articles such as this one https://www.tu.no/artikler/apner-tesla-offentlige-ladestasjo... that talk about Tesla bidding for contracts to install charging stations and that the conditions of the contracts require the stations to be open to other brands of car.

The article points out that Tesla can do this by dedicating part of the station to third party chargers.

So it isn't because they are being forced to do it nor is it necessarily the case that Tesla's own network would be involved.

If your concern is in the long term, wouldn't you want to put your trust in the most mature and long lasting project today (i.e. gpg)? Nobody can see the future, but given that gpg is open source and has been actively developed for over 20 years I feel comfortable trusting it to continue to exist.
> a likely repeatable formula for success: make a game that will catch on amongst these couple-dozen Twitch influencers.

Sure, but like half the world's game devs are all trying to do exactly that right now.

Similar to the stock market, game development is an novelty-based ecosystem. That means that there is essentially no long-term repeatable formula for success. Any formula will eventually discovered by others, over-exploited, and players will lose interest and go elsewhere.
What is Low Code? The article never defines it.
What you want to measure and what you actually can measure are usually very distinct things, that's where "operationalization" comes in.

You have a target that you can't measure directly, hence you measure a proxy. That only works for as long as people don't game it and aim for the proxy instead of the actual target. Also, in addition, at least in research every statistician worth their salt knows that their proxy is not the actual thing and only their best effort at approximating it, hence in good studies, limitations of the methodology are extensively discussed.

Importantly, the moment you realise that your proxy is being gamed, you need to switch proxy.

I think this is only one example of this annoying trend of pretending to be "data-driven" by coopting numbers and fancy statistics without also adopting everything we know about uncertainty and how we can quantify it. "Data" in many businesses often implies a level of clarity ("look, the graph always goes up") that often does not actually exist and I suspect that this can be hard to understand for certain types of managers.
Probably interesting because meta: I plan to research better sources for information access by vetting the YC/HN www sites linked by the submitters. This, in order to find new good and reliable sources of information and similar, which are currently extremely scarce in my pool.

This is not learning a skill, but it is an enabler for learning: first, using the correct sources for studying which will be identified, and first, because it will be projectedly a time-saver (processing bad information is very time consuming, a waste).
Lots of abuses of data are "contractually" forbidden.
This is an interesting side effect of open source. Companies can not afford to break their customers deployments and so tend to bend over backwards to guarantee backwards compatibility. But in open source that link is much more tenuous and project reputation does not directly translate into monetary value in most cases, especially if there is no commercial model attached to a particular solution.

This is made worse by the fact that open source is typically developed with a very early public release to drive adoption, rather than that the first decade or so the solution is battle tested in-house and only released when most of the kinks have been worked out.
I do a lot of home gardening. In my front yard I have four 10x5' raised beds for annuals. I setup drip tape on a timer and mulch with straw. Beyond that I do almost zero work to maintain the plants. Occasional weeding when I see weeds starting to crowd out a productive plant and certain plants need to be pruned to form.

I really can't see the value add from adding a CNC machine to each raised bed.
> You seem to be confusing "theys". The question is what motivates participants, not what motivates researchers.

Contrarily, you seem to be confusing “theys”, yourself.

There exist participants that are motivated by participating in research that benefits society.

Just like there exist individuals motivated by lending their computing resources to the various @Home research efforts.
this is a paternalistic point of view. People should be entitled to accumulate data about their own body -- any "negative" ramifications of this are personal problems.
Curious, how are you learning graphic design?
Part of the problem with large internet platforms is that parts of 'my data' is inextricably linked to 'your data', even to the extent that 'my data' only exists on some platforms as data points in 'your data'. In that sense any opt-in choice given to another is yet another privacy breach on their 'contacts' for example.

I've seen the opinion expressed that part of the reason society allows this type of surveillance is that so many members of our society don't understand the details or scope. If true, whatever discussions we have about this should include the idea that we're proposing to increase the scope of the problem while researching it.
What would be the problem with naming the company here if everything said is the truth and there is no IP being disclosed or other issues like that?

This is similar to when I see people posting in local contexts (like on FB groups) that so and so local company provided terrible service but the poster doesn't want to name names.

What good is done if names aren't named? If we have a name, then things get fixed. Otherwise there is no feedback loop so there's really no point.
The Wikipedia page indeed is interesting. As I note above, it mentions the shift of 4.5% of the police budget to violence prevention and mental health response teams. In addition, if you look at violent crime in Minneapolis, the chronology of the spike doesn't line up with your contentions. It does line up with economic effects of the coronavirus and with the effects of the protests here (I'm including arson committed by folks from outstate MN or WI here, and I don't think that ought to be blamed on Minneapolitans. That stuff stopped when we shut down the highways, and if suburbanites and rural folks stopped driving here to commit their crimes and buy their drugs we'd all be better off.)

The situation in Minneapolis is complex, but we're all confused by the fact that all the new developments are selling condos starting at $900,000 and you can get artisanal hand-made tacos from Nixta and stand in line for a block in this dystopian ghost town to spend $17 on a pizza from Boludo.... But hey, gotta serve the narrative, eh?
I don't think this was the poster's attempt to "devolve" the discussion. Simply sharing an anecdote that he thought might prove worthy of consideration for those who are suffering burnout.

I also suffered burnout at a job, but I didn't realize it until I was receiving therapy related to my anxiety. I don't know anything about meds or ADHD since that isn't anything I have experience with, but I think it's worth doing some introspection on one's self to see if there are thoughts or tendencies that are also there underneath the burnout.
Ah, and don't forget FireWire.
I think you need at least two major releases (or two years) where you can do things the old way or the new way.

Some organizations have a long path to production for runtimes and would prefer to skip releases. Requiring a code change to be tied to the runtime update makes things harder and encourages staying on the old release forever.

After nearly 13 years out of it, I picked up a 3D printer. I did a fair amount of printing and modeling in my last years of college, but since transitioning into programming not long after graduation it's been something that I hadn't had the time for, or the avenue to apply it.

So far I've had more failed prints than successes over the last week or two, but I'm still excited to be doing it. I'm learning the ins and outs, which were different from the last printers I worked with. The wheels are churning as to what I can make, and I'm very excited to continue exploring and "resharpening" the skills that I once had.
Hey, you might like to try get.catenabible.com - we have a large catholic, orthodox, and protestant user base interested in understanding Christianity from the early Christian interpretation. Hope you find it helpful, God bless!
If it benefits you. For example, if there are people in a specific group that you'd like to be a part of, defending the persons honor they they are condemning will not earn you points at all. I know people like to act like you can get through life being a damn saint all the time but that is such a facade. The reason the people in power are where they are is because they made fun of the right people with the "right" people. Their status grew and they could eventually form themselves how they wanted to because they had enough power to influence how others figured out who was appropriate to make fun of and such.

It's a subtle trust mechanism between people. It determines who you are and what you're willing to partake in but with minor repercussions involved if it's discovered by someone else who may care. I mean think of this, if you participated in the #metoo movement and your case did not lead to any convictions, do you seriously think anybody will not come up to that person without any trust reservations from the start? It's public knowledge you will go public with something you perceive as wrongdoing against you. So if I accidentally offend you, now I might be concerned you may use that to damage my reputation down the line.

As a former "always follow logic and be nice christian" person, you will never get anywhere butting heads with people for the sake of righteousness. You will go the way of Thomas Moore, get your head chopped off, and the world will proceed without your input interfering again.
Sounds like an oxymoron. Like hoarding toilet paper, gasoline, water during times of emergency, it limits the true supply.

You could argue the “true price” is what the scalpers charge (who will stop drinking water when the prices skyrocket?).

But in reality they squeeze the supply to create artificial scarcity. Any economist knows this is market manipulation.
Retailers are also have strict liability for the products they sell. When something goes wrong, it is up to them to make customers right and go after the manufacturer to recover those damages.
Short selling is perhaps ok but definitely not naked short selling
Where did I say preferential treatment is bad?

I think you are missing my point.

Here's another quick take:

If I am going to enter into a non-trivial business relationship with a supplier and I have multiple equivalent options, I will avoid a supplier with potential conflicts of interest with competitors. If it is important enough for that supplier to get business from many potential large customers, they must avoid having conflict-of-interest issues.

I have a relevant example from a project we are working on right now. It's a specialized aircraft simulator.

We have about $250K in CNC laser tube cutting and welding work we need to outsource to a vendor with the right capabilities. We have been in conversations with about a dozen of them. One of them has a consulting relationship with a company that is a competitor to our client. Not a direct competitor (not the same product) but close enough to raise a question. We had to disqualify this vendor on that basis.

In fact, this sort of thing is so important in business that the vendor actually brought up the conflict of interest to us. We didn't know about it. They informed us that a potential conflict existed and suggested they should not be be considered for the contract.

That's what I think Panasonic is doing. If they want to go after relationships with direct Tesla competitors it is a lot easier to manage if there are no conflicts. Owning billions in stock on one company and none of the others is a clear conflict.

Remember that owning stock in a company means you are an owner of the company. It is YOUR company. Becoming a supplier to companies that compete with a company you own is a very clear conflict minefield.

Paging TaylorAlexander... what's your take?
it does not take much, I usually ask candidates on-site, to review real production PR. I would also keep around pieces of real production code and ask the candidate to either fill in additional/missing functionalities, or ask them what changes/tests if any they would implement and why.

Basically testing real day-to-day job. If you were to work in this company and you were given this task, how would you approach it?

You can easily tell which people care, strive for good practices and who have high quality standards vs the ones who tend to just hack things together.

It worked well for me, and never regretted any hiring.

Yup. I feel like a bunch of stuff is absolutely invisible to my industry bubble until it has a standout hit that makes a ton of money or starts getting talked about by someone everyone knows and trusts and then becomes impossible to ignore. And the lesson then should not be that "wow this is a perfectly replicatable formula" but, "maybe some of our assumptions are wrong."

Which makes me further think -- how many OTHER transformative trends are we missing, because they AREN'T money or media based and thus destined to eventually pierce our industry bubble?

My research says this claim is false. The mortality rate for COVID-19 for all age groups is much higher that mortality rates for drivers.

How I compared the risks:

In New York the mortality rate for COVID-19 for all age groups over 18 was found to be at least 0.2%[1]. The CDC[2] reports 18-29 years at 0.5%, 30-39 at 1.4%, 40-49 at 3.5%, 50-64 at 16.4%.

There were 36,560[3] motor vehicle related deaths in 2018 in the US. With 273,602,100[4] cars on the road one could make a rough estimate of mortality of 0.013%. This number is conservatively high since it does not include passengers.
