I don't think you can build this as a habit. This comes from a deeper level.

For me, I've always believed that wealth comes from God. Hard work is a form of respect given, to honor that. To me, working is sort of a religious act, like an offering or prayer. One of the main differences is that I'm willing to work really hard even when not paid well or acknowledged, because I believe the rewards for it are indirect.
A pissing match between two billionaires isn’t something I give a shit about.
I have seen the "very little demonstrable harm" you mentioned with my own eyes in real time. It was little more than serendipity that saved lives that day. If someone did do what you described then IMHO they would be recklessly endangering the lives of others and should be treated accordingly.
Receiving of certain bands is prohibited, from memory the ones used on cordless phones and something else. All devices sold, say frequency analyzers, have to have a bandgap for them to pass FCC validation. It is common to remove these bandgaps and ignore the law because everyone seems to accept they are really dumb and they wreck the sensitivity of the instrument.

I too liked them.

Well the downfall of Amazon has started. Yes the 2 do stand out and in my opinion.

>They lead with empathy, have fun at work, and make it easy for others to have fun.

Fun at work? Which idiot came up with this? The definition of work is, what is _not_ fun. While it is critical to make work as tolerable as one can. Aiming to make it fun is either an exercise in naivety which will infantalize the workforce, or an act of insincerity.

Post-scarcity retirement is an interesting topic, but the author carefully avoids it by focusing on redistribution and distaste for the values he sees in "hard-working" people.

My point is that no congresspeople would sign off on a law that would stifle innovation to such a degree. Customers should be given the tools to make better decisions regarding the repairability of products if they so choose to factor that into their purchasing decision, but if it means outright stopping purely positive improvements like faster CPUs then it's both harmful to consumers and not a law that would pass congress.

A lesser extreme is the southbridge/northbridge and how CPUs are becoming SoCs. If that fails, you pretty much have to buy a new CPU, when previously you could technically replace it if you wanted. Would have such a version of the R2R law prevented this?
This is a Tony the Pony situation almost.
There was literally a congressional hearing months ago about this. It's not like it's new that there is attention on this from the federal level.

I'm aware. Have you not seen the occasional news articles where someone with a cell/GPS jammer gets caught and fined for it? Last one I remember was a trucker jamming his company's GPS to prevent speed tracking.

It's reasonable to expect the end user to not break the law because enforcement is possible. Even if enforcement was impossible, prior restraint of natural rights to just do stuff should not be on the table. Should we ban CNCs because you can use CNCs to build things that kill people?
There is this Erlang unit, for the number of simultaneous calls a telecommunication system can handle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erlang_(unit) It's dimensionless, because it multiplies the rate that calls are initiated by the average length of a call: 'calls / second' by 'seconds / call'. Dimensionless.

But that makes little sense - we're measuring the number of simultaneous calls. It gets reflected in buffers, circuits, sockets, channels allocated, etc.

It would be better to consider 'call starts / second' as the rate at which calls are initiated, and the average 'call.seconds / call start', which when multiplies gives the more sensible unit 'call'.

Or simpler: just measure the average length in seconds. So we have so many 'calls / second' initiated, and the average length is so many 'seconds', which when multiplied again gives a unit of 'call'.
They are lobbying to maintain the status quo. I think their big fear is some politician deciding to sell off the amateur spectrum to Verizon or getting convinced by Cisco that ham radio is bad for wifi and needs to be more tightly regulated.

That said, I cannot speak to whether they are efficient at their lobbying or not.

You didn’t live thru 1999-2001 then. Just cuz a company has an IPO doesn’t mean they have a viable business.
I would be genuinely interested in a multi-decade grid of what various price points bought in inflation-adjusted dollars by year for say, dell or compaq/hp over the years, say for price points in increments of $500.

Like my rock-bottom "Workforce 486" that was $2000 back in 1993 or so: 486 dx2/66, 250MB HDD, 4MB RAM ordered from the back of Computer Shopper.
Yes, that is true, but hard to convince users to upgrade when the installer refuse to run on their 3+ years old computer.

My desktop is less than 1 year old and still Windows 11 wont install because the disk is formatted using MBR. I know how to fix that. It involves formatting the disk and change bios settings and a lot of work. I can do that. I don't know anyone outside my tech circle that could do the same.

When a <1 year old computer cant be effortless upgraded Microsoft has a big problem.

> For whatever reason, speculation is pretty rampant whenever it comes to Tesla accidents.

That, and we seem to hear about every single Tesla that gets into an accident in detail, whereas with other cars there's just a brief blurb during the news about how another 10 car pile-up blocked the freeway for an hour.

So I wonder at this point which PR firm is making sure that every single Tesla accident makes the news?
I once had a car that you couldn't take the head rest off without laying the back right down first...
A pretty disappointing piece.

Used hind-site to change earlier value judgements to be more political correct, and just pointed out times they made simple mistakes.

How about times they said someone was great and now realise it was garbage, or vise-verse.

We've all re watched movies we thought were good and now realise they were crap and the opposite. Or not liked a movie but later came to understand it had components of value outside of what we like.

That must also happen in art. We also know critics often (most of the time?) get caught up in group think, why not talk about that?

It feels like their job interview answer of tell us about something you'd like to improve.

New firmware update going out restores safety features with vision only. Consumer Reports made the 3 its top pick again due to this.

https://www.consumerreports.org/car-safety/tesla-model-3-reg... (Tesla Model 3 Regains CR Top Pick Status and IIHS Safety Award; New IIHS testing shows that Tesla’s new camera-based system provides effective automatic emergency braking)

> The Tesla Model 3 has regained its status as a Consumer Reports Top Pick after independent tests proved the effectiveness of its new camera-based automatic emergency braking (AEB) and forward collision warning (FCW) systems.

> Earlier today, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety released the first evaluations of new Tesla vehicles that use a camera-based system for AEB and FCW. Because of their performance, the Model 3 will once again get a Top Safety Pick+ designation, which is the IIHS’ highest safety award.

> “Given the IIHS’ recent evaluations of Tesla’s new camera-based system on its Model 3 and consistent with CR’s integration of IIHS ratings into our recommendations, CR is restoring the car’s Top Pick status,” says Jake Fisher, senior director of CR’s Auto Test Center.
I use disposable emails all the time, since nowadays you can't get the "free" wi-fi from business without a freaking registration.
It's not that I can't find it. It's that I have no interest in pursuing it. I am extremely content and satisfied with my life. See no point in chasing things I don't need.

This is the problem. I tell people I'm not interested in being happy, and they take that to mean my life sucks (for lack of a better term). Nothing is further from the truth. Unlike my happiness oriented friends, I am extremely content. I have a beautiful wife and lovely children. My family lives close by. I have close friends. I want for nothing. People tell me I smile a lot.

But I have no feeling I'd describe as happy. I'm not sad. I'm just content. I see no point in seeking the thrill of happiness, just like I see no point seeking the thrill of skydiving. I intellectually see how such fleeting experiences could be nice, but I don't want or need them

That would only be a problem if you didn't ultimately require email verification.

Her work is pure positive externality: nobody has incentive to pay for it. Journals barely care about fraud (as long as it's not caught by someone else), reviewers don't have much incentive to check carefully for it (and might even be in on the fraud), and the authors engaging in fraud obviously prefer that journals not look too closely.

There are many more interested parties than journals, reviewers, and authors. Universities have incentives to protect their reputations from fraudulent scientists; funding agencies have incentives to protect their funds from being misused, etc. Certainly they don't have resources to exhaustively check the outputs of their scientists, however, and it seems difficult or impossible to quantify the return on investment of such proactive research integrity efforts.

This seems like an area where one of the large science-focused philanthropic organizations -- the Gates Foundation, Allen Institute, Chan Zuckerberg, HHMI, etc. -- would be well positioned to have a huge impact on the quality of scientific output and also reap a large return in terms of positive press for their efforts. Any of these organizations could easily fund an entire team of Elisabeth Biks, not to mention an AI team on the side to augment and partially automate this work.
So far I haven't figured out a way to organize my shadow knowledge.

Shadow knowledge definition:

Say you are writing a GUI application and you choose QT with C++. Now that QT has good documentation but definitely not everything is there, so there is a lot of trials and errors and even more Stackoverfoo. A lot of "shadow knowledge" is in understanding the documentation in the right way, knowing which phrase to Google and applying everything you learned in coding.

However in most of cases, those shadow knowledge becomes obsolete:

Scenario 1 - This is a one shot project, and you won't come back for a long time. So these "shadow knowledge" won't make much sense when you do come back, say, after 6 months. You have to record the "meta shadow knowledge" of these "shadow knowledge". For example, why did I bookmark this stackoverflow post? Why did I write these 3 lines of code? Essentially, you have to record every thought process and hopefully the future you understnad most of them.

Scenario 2 - You continue to make QT applications, one after another, and eventually these shadow knowledge becomes second instinct and you never need to look at the notes again.

I came across this article from Airbnb's engineering team. It's an interesting take on attempting to maintain engineering velocity while supporting multiple platforms with evergrowing requirements. Down the line, I am not convinced it will not create more problems than it tries to solve. Interested in hearing viewpoints from HN community on such an approach.
Sounds like my prediction was on point then. They kicked out one of the two reasonable projects they were working on.
> As far as I'm concerned, "being happy" is about how your baseline level of emotion is. When nothing in particular is happening, let's say if you lied down for a minute, are you stressed, depressed, worried, miserable, feeling like you are wasting time idling and really should be doing something else?

Nope. I love doing nothing. Have no care in the world. Don't feel stressed. Don't feel miserable. I don't feel anything. Should I think about my life, I feel content. But contentedness is different from happiness, because I am content even when I am quite obviously suffering or in pain. For example, I recently sprained my back quite hard. Was I uncontented? Not at all. Even while in pain, I was perfectly fine.

> Alright, so maybe your idea of what others mean by happiness is not what I'd expect. I don't think most people would define happiness as a permanent state of being.

But this is the very definition of happiness I believe is pushed on us by the pschology-industrial complex, and is the one I reject. Certainly, the fleeting feeling of 'happiness' exists. I just don't believe the psychobabble version of happiness exists. Moreover, I think it would be extremely depressing if it did.

> . It doesn't mean you can't have a bad day, or that you take bad things with a smile. It means you take neutral things with a smile!

I guess I find this strange, because even when I have a bad day, I'm typically extremely optimistic. As I've said elsewhere, I'm an eternal optimist.

> I don't feel like happiness is something you chase, or some out of reach goal that requires years of devoted training.

I think you're arguing against a strawman. You call happiness, what I call neutrality or maybe contentedness. This article is not about that. It's about something else.

Indeed, and the feeling of earning something is termed 'achievement'.

Hi! I'm a self-taught computer programmer with interest in math and science.

If you are working on a project that is math-heavy or is all about science, do contact me(even just to say hi!)

I've been in a few job/internship interviews only to realize I really want to do is to research and create things: be it in academia or in a company. I found it to be a niche harder to find opportunities for in comparison to, say, react/typescript/fullstack work.

See you!

> People in single-family zones (wealthy) are slowing the supply increase in apartments which is allowing prices to rise.

Seattle has not enough homes? Just build them. Give tax credits to construction companies, give tax credits to construction workers, give land for free to construction companies, ease regulations, reroute budget to transportation, and you will have a lot of new homes quickly.

If you rob the rich to punish them for their hard work, you won't have more homes. You will have fewer rich people.

(Also, it is rich people who drive construction of new homes, not poor people.)

> You can't get rid of poverty without going through the wealthy.

Yes you can, and there is a ton of ways to do that.

For example, medical insurance is expensive. Increasing the taxes for the rich won't make it cheap. But better regulations (anti-monopolies, easier licenses, transparent prices etc) will make it cheaper.

What else is too expensive? It can be fixed similarly.
Thanks for the details, I was mentioning them from memory as well as eliding some details for brevity (though none that I thought changed the nature of my point).

> Police horse and dog: people could be arrested for "threatening, abusive or insulting" speech in public at the time. The police, being wankers, overused their discretion on "insulting" speech and so the law was changed in 2013 to remove "insulting" as a criterion.

Yes, this is consistent with my point. Abuse of the spirit of any law is a given, and it's part of what goes into assessment of whether a law is wise or not. It would be great if we could pass laws that could identify and laser-target "bad" speech in perpetuity with no potential for abuse, but that's just now how law works and proneness to abuse is a central part of the criticism.

> [count dankula and snoop Dogg lyric]

In what way my summary misleading? I think perhaps we have different notions of what's relevant here. Training a dog to react to "gas the jews" isn't categorically different from training a dog to respond to seig Heil with a nazi salute. In fact, it's the exact same joke.

> The guy repeatedly left the cartoons in airport _prayer-rooms_.

I was mistaken about this story, thanks for clarifying. I'm not sure where I got the impression that it occurred in restrooms.

>Downplaying the parts people actually got angry about makes it seem like you're complaining about the people getting angry about the actions rather than the trials and punishments.

This is a pretty wild assumption about ny motivations. Your descriptions are as easily described as "downplaying" the relative triviality of the acts: in the case of Dankula, you mention "gas the jews" without mentioning that it was a trigger word for another dog trick (use/mention distinction), and in the case of the snoop Dogg lyric, you leave out 1) that "she copied the lyrics from a friend’s Instagram account, which were used by thousands of people to pay tribute to Frankie Murphy" and 2) the complaints centered entirely on use of the word "nigga", which is even more ridiculous than the violent content (as her lawyer pointed out, should Jay-Z be fined for using the same language during a Glastonbury performance?)

Though I don't think the reason you left these out is because you're trying to mislead: your focus was "why people were angry", and mine was "how absurd the incidents are to the sensibilities of citizens of a country with robust speech protections". Whether or not people get angry is immaterial to my point, which is the exact opposite of caring enough about their anger to downplay it. The absurdity comes from the idea that it's workable for the state to be coordinating speech at such a ridiculously low level.
Spamhaus successfully blocks connection attempts by their SaaS service for not identifying itself with a valid domain.
An alternative is to use the prefix only, e.g. 500m (=0.5), 700n (=0.0000007), 5.1k (=5,100). This is easy enough though it can clash with non-standard multiples (MM suffix, M misspelled as m, B for billion, ...). The U is quite unnecessary.
