These corporate platforms are an extension of the Corporatist state, receiving protections & privileges from the state to grant them a monopoly over their domain. They are extensions of the government, collaborating to enforce rules that is outside of the government's charter. If the state did not want these corporations to hold so much power or even to exist, these corporations would not. If there was a true free market, these corporations would not have as much power. However, the state sanctions these corporations to hold their positions. This public/private partnership cartel is how power is consolidated over all domains of life. This is not a free market.

Claiming that these corporations have the "freedom of speech" is just like claiming that the government has the "freedom of speech". These corporations are an extension of the government. This is why a company needs to hire many lawyers, have a political presence, & often has many ex-3 letter agency executive/board members once it reaches a certain size. These corporations can do things that the official government cannot, yet they are controlled by the same networks that control the official government.

> If your desire is only deterministic iteration, just use a hash function that gives that to you.

For one thing, even with a deterministic hash function, the keys still have to be hashable in some deterministic way - no using pointer values as hash codes. Making objects properly hashable is always possible to do, but in many languages it requires additional work, so people often don’t bother, at the cost of nondeterminism. Insertion-order maps make determinism ‘just work’.

Even assuming you do have a deterministically hashable objects and a deterministic hash function, then sure, the map is deterministic in the sense that starting from an empty map and performing the exact same series of operations gives you the same iteration order. If you run the same program on the same inputs, you should get the same output. And often that is all you need.

But sometimes you want one part of the program to be deterministic even if another part is changing, and nicely-behaved hash maps can make that easier. For example: both insertion-order maps and sorted maps, but not standard hash maps even with a deterministic hash function, share the property that adding a new element won’t change the relative order of two existing elements. If you’re mutating one part of a map and not another part, yet the latter part is changing order anyway, in some sense that part of the map is behaving nondeterministically.

Similarly, they both share the property that a map->list->map round trip, or map->string->map round trip, results in an indistinguishable map. So it’s easier to guarantee that a program behaves deterministically even if you sometimes need to (nondeterministically) pause it, serialize its state to disk, and reload it later.

They are growing, and with an increase in size they have to have significant dissonance within the team - it's only natural.

Maybe a few of the older guns at YC still like to think that they continue to be the place where a hypothesis is evaluated purely for its potential but its not - which is sad because the world now desperately needs what YC once was.

Disclaimer: I was an intern at Micron while 3D XPoint was in development. I am entirely unfamiliar with the Lehi facility.

I can't say what I saw of fab production in Boise made it a "bad job", but like anything, there is a range of experiences. I've worked in a variety of manufacturing environments, and while clean rooms are certainly different than the others, I'd probably prefer it if I were a production employee. Personally I'd prefer it to cutting protein, but different strokes for different folks.

Overall it looks like Micron is taking a hit, given that they bought Intel's 49% stake for 1.5 billion less than 3 years ago. https://siliconangle.com/2019/01/15/micron-buy-intels-stake-...

Semiconductors inherently have a plethora of harsh chemicals involved. The country as a whole did a terrible job with waste management until we {society} got serious about not being absolutely awful to the environment. There are many waste sites which were never really documented, the environment wasn't considered when selecting them, etc. If that was the state of affairs at the time, it's not surprising that there are superfund sites at former clean rooms.

It does become difficult applying current standards to past actions. The condoned practice for certain categories of chemicals was to bury them. When those best practices are changed, you can't reasonably just dig it all up and deal with it. Digging it up is sometimes more hazardous to the environment than leaving it be. Some manufacturers have teams of contractors on site dealing with legacy waste issues. They're conducting and reviewing soil and water samples, reviewing drawings with known dump sites, water monitoring, etc before allowing any dirt to be moved.

I moderately agree, but

>It would be more concerning if they actually believed their monstrous opinions in earnest and were not even posting them anonymously.

There are still plenty of people who believe their monstrous opinions in earnest but exclusively post them anonymously because they know they would be direly ostracized if they posted anything akin to it with their real identity, or perhaps even a pseudonymous identity.

There absolutely are many people who fall into the other category that you describe, but on an anonymous website like 4chan, the ratio between the sincere and non-sincere hateful and/or psychotic and/or psychopathic posters unfortunately seems to have started gradually skewing further and further towards the former over time. Especially starting after 2014, once Gamergate etc. signaled (and maybe partly caused) the current wave of ideological polarization we've all been living in since.

I agree not all standards are great. But they're *standards*. As in, you really should, because everyone else agreed it was a good idea. The time for vetoing it was when it was being decided (and Apple does shoot down tons of proposals), not when everyone else already agreed is was a good idea.

It's not that Safari doesn't get these features - it gets them years later than the competition. The problem with these big companies (Google is bad as well) is that they're too big to fail. If they don't like something, then the standard isn't their standard.

Same thing with radians (a "dimensionless" unit) -- angle is the ratio of two lengths, arc length/radius, so technically dimensionless, but those two lengths are not of the same thing. I always felt more comfortable saying "pi radians" rather than just "pi" because radians feel like a real unit in the same way that units-east-per-unit-north do.

I wonder if there's been any study into when it's ok to cancel two of the same unit and when it's better to leave it as a ratio of two quantities with the same unit but describing different dimensions. Is there a way to make this notion precise?

This isn't a tenable argument for two reasons:

1. How far off the bell curve do we need to go? Do we trade all rights to do anything for diminishing returns in safety?

2. These modifications are happening right now. Bad instances are usually caught by EMS system tests or by people reporting gaps in cell coverage, etc, and are generally purpose build jammers. There are not many instances of frequency overlap. For most goods, especially consumer telecommunications equipment, other bands are protected by the fact the equipment is given a specific range to operate in anyway.

That's a ton of cash, but I believe that this eye-watering number is based upon the fair-market value of equity _granted_ in a particular year. That is, other executives might actually have higher total compensation based upon vesting if they received grants (say) 18 months ago.

It's still a crazy ass number but maybe not crazy at the level of "this person is more important than the CEO."

Except Google maintains the code that performs those checks. Rolling out changes to key checking will result in a longer transition, but it is more legitimate than demanding developers hand over private signing keys. And in the meanwhile Google Play store knows which phones have been updated, so it can provided the slimmed-down Google-signed APKs to them, and the universal developer-signed APKs to everyone else.

I just created and consumed a secret message. It seemed to work. Plus, I didn't have to create an account. Easy to use. I also love the name.

I noticed in the FAQ you refer to your three secret types as text, redirect, and neogram. In other places you seem to call redirect "link". Could be a naming consistency fix.

Features like delete after N visits or by X date might be useful too.

I'm a little confused about the use case. Maybe I'm boring, but who would I need to send a scrt.link to? I can think of bad use cases, for example maybe a botnet could propagate messages through this, or share credentials that would change after using or something. I can't really think of other use cases though without going a bit unrealistic.

I read the FAQ about why I should use it. I'm not sure it's great for credentials because if they aren't continually going to be available through the link, the other party will need to copy them.

If I'm doing something with minor security concerns, e.g. sharing the Netflix password, I'm just going to send it over text or whatever. If it gets compromised I'll just reset and change it. If I'm doing something with significant security concerns, e.g. sharing credential to access a production database at work, then I'm obviously not going to use this due to trustworthiness concerns.
This seems odd. When I applied, they asked me for my W-2 to get my income.
> I used LabVIEW extensively for a few months

I’m not sure that a few months is enough to understand the true pros and cons of a language. I’m using Elixir in my day job now and have used F# for side projects, and it’s not clear to me any one is faster to program in, especially for GUIs. LabVIEW actually shines, contrary to popular but inexperienced opinion, for large projects. I have used LabVIEW rather extensively, and it seems any project would have seen massive delays if I used something else, which is why I didn’t.

But I can indeed see an argument for strain when using the mouse so much. I have experienced that before and improved my ergonomic setup. As an aside, it is curious to me that many programmers are heavy PC gamers as the one true way to game and don’t complain about the mouse use there but will throw out all sorts of complaints when using it to program or use tools.

> New ideas in graphical software require software intensive effort to try out.

This “problem” isn’t inherent to graphical programming though. It’s because legions of programmers are convinced that text=programming and have spent decades writing text-only tools. You see this friction when using LabVIEW with GitHub, whose tooling is incompatible with the diff and merge tools that come with LabVIEW, which makes GitHub look outdated and not LabVIEW.

I’m actually working on ideas to build a toolkit for graphical programming languages. There are certainly challenges though, such as the desktop GUI ecosystem being a mess and reliance upon graph data structures and algorithms (like automatic layout).

> On the other hand, there does seem to be something about data flow programming (LabVIEW, Excel) that is attractive to beginners

Dataflow is attractive to advanced users as well, which is part of the draw to languages like F#, Elixir, Racket, Clojure, etc. Although, the dataflow in LabVIEW is actually more advanced, which is basically a multithreaded and branched version of the single threaded linear pipelines found in the languages I mentioned. Working in F# and Elixir with pipes can be pretty irritating sometimes given my knowledge of LabVIEW.

Some people want to receive marketing emails. The exact same emails are spam to the rest of us. If you default opt-in users and don't make blanket unsubscription from all marketing emails easy (and make the clear distinction [both internally and externally] between emails regarding the existing functionality of products/services that we've already paid for and emails to ask for more revenue from us, which includes copy supported by advertisers), then you're a spammer, simple as that.

Spammers aren't necessarily evil, but definitely annoying, and annoying customers is a good way to lose them. It's easy to drink the coolaid and eat the dogfood when you're paid to like it or have a passion for creating it but potential customers have roughly the opposite incentive and it pays to remember that.

I receive a lot of unread, unwanted email from companies I pay money to every month. It's ridiculous.
As I understand it there is no central network. So nodes inside the firewall only see internal transactions. Nodes outside the firewall only see external transactions.
