"It’s just hazing."

I think you've found the core idea.

Some profession include situations with actual stress and mortal danger. Doing good programming should be more like solving high school math problems in solitude than a high pressure social interaction.

Or: if your development environment has high stress interaction get a consultant to settle the issue, you likely have multiple issues that need to be dealt with.
Your rules are good but this:

>Palmitic acid is in everything.

Should have no effect on our judgement regarding its safety. Probably the story of our times seen from the future will be how we failed to account for extremely widespread use of very minorly dangerous products. See stuff like microplastics which took a couple decades to go from research to ban. Take the famous example from Fight Club:

>The car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside. Now, should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. ... If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one.

Except we've moved even one degree from that now, think of a variable Y which is the cost to even figure out what B is. If you're a company selling a dangerous product you don't just have to consider X, you can also factor in Y as a proxy for long/hard entities will have to fight just to figure out the harm you're doing. So we should think about both sides of the coin, that the research is good enough to show there is an effect but also that we're not increasing Y to completely unreasonable amounts.
Not exactly young here, but I disable contents for this reason among many others. I will not make my own videos a platform for intentionally hurtful comments, off-topic arguments between commentators, or rants.

Some other reasons:

I find it irresponsible on Youtube's part, to maintain a commenting platform with such a tremendous budget, and yet without meaningful discussion moderation tools that could be found on much lower-end platforms. These tools are a minimum bar for basically not promoting abusive behavior.

Also, disabling comments helps me to communicate that they are not a channel I monitor for feedback or questions. I just don't have the time to monitor them, and in Youtube's case this means I either have a potential commenting cesspool on my hands or no comments at all.

To some people this is a huge red flag maybe, but I would wonder if they really understand what it's like to be a publisher on the platform. Again and again I have seen good channels derailed by the absolutely broken commenter-publisher feedback loop...
Slight tagent but do you and many others here appear mere hours after their project is mentioned? Pure luck or a large percentage of HN users are querying the api to see who mentions their projects?
The Model S was a significantly higher volume and lower cost car than the Roadster that came before it.

The Model 3 was a significantly higher volume and lower cost car than the Model S that came before it.

Eventually they hit a wall in terms of the cost of the raw materials and labor to build the battery and drive train, but I'm not convinced they are there yet.

Also, TSLA could very well find a Tim Cook to Elon Musk's Steve Jobs: someone familiar with logistics to take over the vision and mass produce it.
Removing the dislike count is the worst possible thing YouTube could do. Youtube is not just people talking about their day or political content. It is practical content, like how-to videos, and entertainment. When you search how to do something the number one indicator it will be useful or helpful video is the dislikes. This is critical for sifting through all of the garbage videos that don’t work or aren’t related who are just trying to make a buck or get views. Even in entertainment dislikes offers the same feedback, and while it’s not a perfect measure, it absolutely provides a good indicator.
I still won't even buy a car with GPS. Seems I'm in a vanishing minority. It won't pass, because people born after 1990 have spent their adult lives in a world with surveillance machines in their pockets at all times. Their cars are just big phones. By 2040 you probably won't even be allowed to drive your own vehicle.
There's no salvaging what SO has become - the place where good complex questions are promptly closed by uninformed moderators. The place where questions about new versions of software are closed as duplicates of questions about older obsolete versions whose answers are no longer relevant. The place where popular questions with hundreds of upvotes and strong discussions are closed as off-topic.
> Those in the experiment could still see and use the public dislike button, but because the count was not visible to them, we found that they were less likely to target a video’s dislike button to drive up the count.

I don't understand this part. So, hiding the dislike count means less people will dislike.

Then what's the point of disliking a video? It provides much less feedback to a creator than just commenting, it's more often used as a signal to other viewers. If it's hidden, there's really no point of including it at all. In fact, why not remove likes too? And while we're at it, let's remove the view count too.

This is a really strange change, and I'm not sure that I'm happy about it.
Hmmm...

I mean, those are bad investment that those investors probably shouldn't have made. But that's really on the investors, unless the founders were somehow lying about what they were doing.

> I've been a part of companies where the owners cashed out millions of dollars after round 3 of funding where the business never really sustained itself, yet continued to receive funding.

Just as an example, founders don't cash out without the investors knowing about it. It's a negotiation in which the investors knowingly decide that it's worth paying millions to founders in order to get a piece of the company.

That might be wrong! It might be a bad investment. But it is in no way fraud, and there is no reason at all to feel bad for those investors - we're not even talking about retail investors, we're talking about investors who pay lawyers and accountants 10s of thousands to do due diligence on companies, and who negotiate for a living.

That is nothing at all like a ponzi scheme (again, unless someone is lying somewhere along the way / committing fraud).

If prices are increasing faster than the maintenance that is needed :)

Hoarding used cars for a slightly long time will have them deteriorate somewhat. Some will have small issues, some might have bigger. Theoretical value might be higher, but when selling time comes the practical value might be a disappointment. Getting them ready for sale will have costs.

Car dealers just go for fast profit, like they always did.
A few reasons to use Kubernetes Operators (and some not to)
My guess is the opposite :) Chinese bonds have nice high yields and there's a load of money from western companies looking for yield.

Until recently they were considered (by most people) to be a relatively safe bet, so why wouldn't there be a load of money in there...
Here's one (negative!) result on trying to detect dark matter with LIGO:

I mean, IIRC Apple was the first company to use the phrase "personal computer," so perhaps literally true? If not quite what you meant.
I have to admit I still fail to understand why the laser would somehow travel to the past.

> That laser beam will appear at the location you pointed it however many light years in the past it would have taken for light to travel to its destination and then return over time to the moment you fired the laser.

No... I mean, you'd be able to see the laser button being pushed 20 years later (assuming 20 LY distance), but the laser light appears before this (because it was magical superluminal laser with polarized hull plating and photons that travel 20 LY in a second, or such).

This doesn't mean the laser push has not happened at the moment when the laser dot appears. It has. This is why you see the dot. Far away someone must have pushed the button at this very instant. You just haven't observed the push yet because of the large distance (and speed of light slower than the magical superluminal laser).
Every video that correctly describes the benefits of the COVID vaccine and makes it to the front page is spammed with dislikes, and this constitutes a major threat to public health. No, this is actually a very important change.
Big part of the valuation is the partnership with Amazon for commercial vehicles which you don't seem to be considering. Those vehicles are in the 100k+ price bracket.
Notably, HN does this too for the YC company job ads shown on the HN front page. Allowing users to comment on your job ad will inevitably lead to negative content so HN disables it.

(Though compared to reddit ads, these job listing have a very light touch. And they’re just a free perk for YC companies)
Instead of leaving two trailing spaces, I tend to just use `<br>`, which is more explicit.

This and soybean oil.
Job pressure and interview pressure have almost nothing to do with each other besides that both phrases end in " pressure".

You don't understand the problem, and are doubling down on the solution. Sadly common.
I want to understand that second sentence better. Is it the same sentiment as the Bukowski quote stating “The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence”?
I started to reintroduce them into my vocabulary. I found myself qualifying nearly everything, and it decreases the clarity of the discussion, feels lawyer-like. I'm not drafting a contract (most of the time), but trying to communicate a complicated principle in a few words, where every extra word detracts from the meaning.

> People have been talking about the "rickety foundation" of China for decades

Economically, sure. (Those always struck me as sour grapes or a fundamental misunderstanding of how debt works in a centrally-planned economy.)

Politically, however, the CCP had intraparty competition that avoided the sort of rot that felled the Soviets. It also kept the Party thinking long term. Hong Kong and Taiwan are good examples of Xi's impatience. Absent intervention, Hong Kong would have uncontroversially folded into China in 2047. The combination of China's military and economic prowess, then, could have encouraged peaceful unification with Taiwan. But Xi was impatient. He wanted it in his lifetime. So he rushed Hong Kong and screwed up not only Taiwan, but relations with all his neighbors, from the Philippines to India.

Dictators like to style themselves as monarchs. But monarchy has a continuity that dictatorships don't. That makes them more impatient and more unstable, particularly at the transfer of power.
I find it is an incredible indicator for low view-count videos. If dislikes are greater than likes it's a pretty good indicator you should just skip.

Seems like it'd be useful to hide the dislike count only after the video gets a certain number of likes.
That sounds like a fixable problem that's not the core technology. Major legacy car makers have made mistakes thousands of times more stupid and dangerous.
I think the idea of the algorithm interview is to see if you were awake in class while getting the degree and whether you can think on your feet. For other classes it's more difficult to come up with questions that aim for the same.

They used the Fawlty Towers bit where he literally made fun of hitler...

The bit I'm sure he was referencing was the "Mr Hilter" bits in Monty Python... He literally played Hitler to make fun of him...

It is hilarious though that Cleese can Godwin any argument instantly.
A friend owns a high line/niche used car dealership and his service shop, who has a legendary mechanic, has not increased rates at all but just got more selective about the service work they are doing. Also, effectively no new service customers as they are booked solid for months.
> I doubt every browser bundles its own decoding and playback engine.

Not sure if that is the case on Mac but I am pretty sure Firefox bundle its own decoding and playback engine on Windows. And the same for Chrome. ( They are practically a mini OS ) The only one using OS default is Safari. Hence why supporting VP9 or other codec require an OS update.

Unless of course it is Hardware Accelerated Decoding.
COP26: Germany fails to sign up to 2040 combustion engine phaseout
I write a variety of CLI tools for my own use in Java.

On this low-end Chromebook (Samsung Chromebook 3 with a Celeron N3060 @1.60GHz) I can start the JVM, load the classes for my CLI program, and print a help message,

jpavel@penguin:~$ time rcr -h
Usage: RCloner <config path> get|put <entry> [args]
RCloner <config path> list

real 0m0.316s
user 0m0.208s
sys 0m0.126s

in less than 1/3 of a second. And this is with stock openjdk version 1.8.0_302, which doesn't include the startup time improvements of Java 10 & 12.

Sure, I wouldn't write utilities meant to be piped one into another, but for standalone CLI tools, the JVM startup time isn't prohibitive at all.
This only proves the point to remove the dislikes as clearly those are coordinated dislike attacks. The subject matter in that video doesn't even have anything worth liking or disliking; it was pretty standard stuff. The screenshot you show has the person shown disliking it - whomever took the screenshot has an agenda. And that Twitter account speaks for itself.
It sounds like the study points to the idea that "talk through your reasoning" is a bad interview approach.

The last interview sequence I needed to do they put me in front of an online IDE and said "go code." They also said I could use my OWN IDE if I had it set up. One even said "you can finish it later (post-interview) if you want."

The candidates giving up: Some nontrivial percentage of CS students are just ... not capable developers. That's why we use programming tests to begin with.

Programming tests may be the worst possible way to assess candidates, but they also seem to be the only way to assess candidates that doesn't involve paying them for a trial period, which really only works for companies large enough to be able to waste a lot of money.

China builds housing in advance of demand. In the United States, we fail to build housing even in the face of demand.

There's pros and cons to either system, but so far, the demand has largely arrived. The ghost cities of 2010 are now bustling metropolises. The ghost cities of 2020... Are on track to become bustling metropolises.

China has added ~500 million people to its cities over the past 50 years. 'Build in anticipation of demand' seems like a sensible approach to this sort of thing.
People would rather watch whatever validate their biases, and would rarely dislike something that does not. And the engagement algorithm would work towards that.

For those reasons, the dislike button is not going to be a great loss for anyone but those who were using it quite seldomly, and they are a minority.
My first thought was that comments in many online spaces, including youtube, can simply be mean. If I was responsible for the online presence of a course I wouldn't want my lecturers to have to deal with random people commenting on their bad haircut or annoying voice, for example.
This is like Amazon letting anyone review a product, but only showing you how many 5-star reviews there are. Completely useless.
> And maybe the thing you write will be a crock of shit.

Because we definitely need more of that.

If there's one thing the Internet is not lacking, it's ideas written down before they're fully thought through.
Parent comment's reason is better, IMHO. Level12 isn't really much more biblical than Water25.

Honestly I thought this is just another Level N technology company.
It’s never a single winner in the market. Sure, Tesla may be superior in some regards(battery tech, better motors) that are critical to an EV, but other car makers bring something else to the table while being reasonably close on range. I for one don’t like the Tesla “All in a single touch screen” interface. Neither do I want my car to constantly update its firmware automatically(chasing a wild auto driving fantasy and SV dreams). I just want my car as an effective tool and be open. I’d love to use CarPlay like on other cars… Tesla?

Not to say that other car makers are perfect. Competition is always good for the consumer.
The lease automatically converted to a month to month after the one year term ended. This thread seems to cover a similar scenario.[1]

I suppose the downside is they could give me the boot with 30 days notice. FWIW I've contacted them several times to try and just sign a lease but the property has been bought out and had it's management office staff swapped out a few times so the whole thing is a mess.

I used to not understand why videos had dislikes even when they haven't premiered yet. But then one day, I realized that in order for YouTube to stop recommending me some channels, I had to press the dislike button.

YouTube recommendation is so bad. Even when you aren't interested in something, they keep on showing it until you click on it. For example, I watched a few Squid Game videos a few weeks ago. Suddenly, because Ben Shapiro did a video on Squid Game, it kept on showing me that thumbnail for days.

The algorithm should have realized that his channel was much more about right wing news than Squid Game and shouldn't have shown it every single day on my recommendation. I don't watch any politics on YouTube.

The worst part was if I clicked on the video, it would re-enforce the algorithm that I wanted right wing news. So the only option was to click the dislike button. It feel like I was force to click the button.
Yes, but cause and effect are reversed from the teacher's perspective. They mark the video as "made for kids" because that's the easiest way to disable comments.
It's because they want to reap the benefits of a social platform without actually participating in a social aspects of said platform. It's an expense to have someone going through comments.

Most organizations (education, government, for-profit, NPO, you name it) that use Twitter rarely if ever interact with any other Twitter account except for preplanned promotional stuff. If you noticed, Twitter added the ability to limit replies. That was solely to please the corporate world who don't like it when someone jumps on the stage that is their platform.

McDonalds doesn't like it when they tweet about their "green initiative" and PETA replies to the tweet with something about beef using x amount of land and y water compared to other food sources, or just a GIF of a cow getting slaughtered. BMW doesn't like it if they tweet about how much they spend on training techs for "world class service" but someone replies with a picture of an engine with a hole in the block because a dealer tech forgot to tighten the oil plug properly after an oil change. Limiting tweet replies means that tweeting for corporations is now a "safe space."

There's an entire business segment dedicated to providing tools to social media teams to alert them if someone who actually is "important" interacts with their social media account. Patrick Stewart tweets about his Juicero blows a fuse? He gets a replacement hand-delivered by a young marketing intern in a star trek uniform who gushes about how she grew up being a fan of "Bev."

You tweet about your juicero blowing a fuse? Nobody at Juicero even sees the tweet, because their social media monitoring tool looked at your profile, saw you rarely get more than 30 views and 2-3 engagements, and knew you represented zero threat to the brand.
Setting aside the whole “fair” issue, I suspect Alphabet could convince a lot of execs to risk going to jail for a lot less than the fine levied here.

Corporations don’t go to jail.
Yeah, the situation is unfortunate. I don't really see a way out though, because government salaries are just not able to compete with the private sector - how is the government going to attract good people?

Let's be honest here - our world is headed towards "Snow Crash". All you can do is hope you land in a good burbclave.
Supply chain is still struggling. Chip shortage is still a problem.

I cannot buy a car at a reasonable price. I'm in manufacturing and our company is constantly rising prices due to shipping issues and high cost to ship overseas.

This will pass, imo but I'm not an economist. I'm just a schmuck with CS degree that can tap a keyboard and produce some code.

I got a MASSIVE (50%) raise this year so I'm going to wait till my next review to worry about inflation.
> Nobody has a perfect day, everyday, but someone performing this kind of service should genuinely enjoy serving people [..]

Q: When you arrive in a restaurant and your server pitches up and says "Hi, how are you?" in a super-bright, ultra-cheerful way, do you immediately think:

a) wow, they genuinely enjoy serving people
or
b) they've been told/taught to greet customers that way, _every single time_

?
I see, but I’m not sure I agree. I don’t see how, e.g., believing that experts should decide how to socialize children, or that the non-discrimination principle overrides even self determination, is an extension of liberalism. Fundamentally, the new ideology isn’t pluralist, which seems like a big difference.

I’m inclined to agree with those who see it as a neo-Puritanism: https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/revenge-of-...
Of course it is. While shitcoins at least have some possibility to work in some limited context, NFTs are a clear scam. The easiest way to get it - it is because every single word said about them by authors is a lie today. Literally nothing of the advertised features exist in reality today.
Yeah, I tried that out. It works pretty well, except that it's not always obvious how the files relate to each other at a glance - I tried it out on an Org-mode file with a lot of small headlines, so that made it more difficult. It would be nice to see in my modeline which window shows which part of the file.
Some of the tech team at Sirona are here, if people have questions.
Google Summer of Code in 2022 – No longer limited to students
Probably a lot. And they won't be served anymore. All the more reason the government has to mandate serving disabled people.

You're arguing that the free market will serve disabled people. That's been tried many times, and it never works out. That's why the government mandates serving disabled people.

And let's not even talk about the ethics of suggesting that disabled people get charged more just for being disabled, something they don't have control over.
The battery is still one of the more expensive components and it is only going to get cheaper.

Tesla are also vertically integrated - they are geared to catch more revenue than just the car sales. They're in a prime position to take the running costs - fuel cost (superchargers), insurance (software edge) and eventually repairs and finance.

Traditional companies have that too - VW have insurance, Volvo have finance and all dealers have repairs. However Tesla have a serious information edge in all of those areas, they look like a real next generation company there.
