> even cars are doing it

Cars are not doing it. Like I said: provide a source that isn't your own suspicions and anecdata.

I am a shareholder of an auto insurance company, and our actuaries would know if cars were doing it. There is a lot of very high-quality data about vehicle reliability, and major trends are very visible.

Car companies are often stupid and/or evil, but they can't (and don't) precisely plan obsolescence. Car usage is a huge bell curve, with the average American driving ~15k miles/year, but large groups of people driving far less or far more. You couldn't possibly plan a car to fail at X years.
This was hard to read. I felt like the content was a little repetitive - maybe for SEO purposes? And full of over the top superlatives, mostly focused on the performance per dollar, and mostly ignoring the increased costs of motherboards (DDR5 aside) over the prior generation or the current generation of the competitor's product. [0] Not to mention focusing on an OS that basically no one uses right now.

I'm sorry but it reads more like an ad. And just because it often needs to be said, I have no brand loyalty here, and mostly think brand loyalty in this space is kind of dumb.

[0]: An example:

```Given its more amenable $409 price tag, it is quite shocking to see the Core i7-12700K deliver such a stunning blow to the $549 Ryzen 9 5900X in threaded work, highlighting the advantages of the x86 hybrid architecture.```

I'd love to save $140 and get better performance, but where am I getting a motherboard that doesn't eat up most of that savings? Maybe it exists, but it's not mentioned. That's fine, it's a CPU review, but then leave the dollar figures out of it if they aren't complete.
So get them from archive.org and let them duke it out.
Comparing death rates in the population is a misleading comparison. In a world of endemic measles most people get measles at some point; new outbreaks tend to hit mostly children, because they weren't born yet during the previous outbreak. To compare disease lethality we have to look at the number of infected patients, not the total population.

If measles were a brand-new disease introduced today, it would also be a bloodbath.

> So that made me think the dopamine addiction/dopamine fasting people had a point.

The term is nebulous, but I think you're mixing concepts.

Taking a break from video games to do other things is a great idea.

But the "dopamine fasting" people have evolved the idea to the point that you would have to take a break from everything enjoyable during the down time. That is, no socialization, no music, no enjoyable foods, and nothing that might make you happy.

And that's the misconception: You don't have to be miserable to restore the enjoyment of one specific thing. You just have to take a break and do something else.

These people would be far happier if they took a break from their easy rewarding activities (Twitter, Netflix, whatever) and simply got up and did anything else, like going outside, going for a walk, socializing with friends, cooking an elaborate meal and inviting some guests over. You don't have to become miserable in general. Diversity of experiences and moderation of the easy rewards is key.

The awesome thing about that period was how we learned. You'd be on a web page, see something funky (positioning, rounded corners, etc) and be like "how the heck did they do that?".

Business losses offset profit, rather than taxes owed, and though losses can be carried forward for years to offset taxes, a company does at some point need to turn a profit for the tax benefits of its losses to matter at all. The article mentions that the company took investor money for this, and it seems to be a fairly small pharma R&D company, so I doubt they have some pile of other successful drugs that they are offsetting these losses against.

But moreover, losing money for tax purposes only makes sense in a narrow window dictated by tax rate. Leaving aside tricky confounders like government R&D grants, if your corporate tax rate is say, 10%, and you have an investment opportunity that won’t turn a cash profit but will grow the value of your business by 95% of what you invest, it can make sense to make an unprofitable investment and lose 5% on it over realizing the profits, paying taxes, and losing 10% on it. But for this to make sense you have to have an investment opportunity that already very close to breakeven, corporate tax rates aren’t that high. And just throwing money away to count the losses on your taxes never makes sense.
The referenced Huberman podcast is pretty thorough (from my lay-perspective) and covers most of the nuance that you mention.
Many things they do now days is fraudulent. 90% of my orders over $100 are open-box or straight up used items, but they still charge full price on these items. If you're even more unlucky, you might get counterfeit products too despite ordering from the genuine manufacturer on Amazon's page.
> Assembly is the fastest if you know what you are doing, very few know what they are doing.

Just a nitpick but for any reasonably sized code, no. While some people can indeed do impressive optimizations on small segments of assembly, they are humans and they will fail to do trivial optimizations that are reliably done by compilers.

Well, unless the copyright holder of that code decide to use another licence in the future — then the snapshot that was licensed as GPL will remain available to you, but the main strand of development may not.

But yes, if this copyright is spread over many people (as it is in this case), then re-licensing is a herculean effort that is especially unlikely to succeed if it's designed to take away user rights, so in that sense a GPL'd project is more likely to remain open.

> any part that still works reliably at the end of the design lifespan is a candidate for cost cutting in the next iteration

This assumes a positive correlation between quality and price for parts. That isn't always the case. There's no reason a better part will be more expensive.

And again, you're ignoring my primary argument: "lifespan" is not measurable in calendar years for electronics. Some people I know use their laptops 360 hrs/mo, and some people (like me) only use them when traveling, ~20 hrs/mo.

After a calendar year of that, my laptop has only 240 hrs of life lost, while another laptop might have 4,000+ hrs of life lost.

Please provide a source about how a hardware manufacturer (without the aid of software) could plan for a component to fail after either 240 hrs of usage or 4,000 hrs of usage.

While this is very true and we should absolutely consider the emotional cost others bear from our actions. I wonder how much we should really be valuing the emotional cost of industrial barons which is the modern farmer. Especially as we consider that other humans also have emotional attachments to wildlife. When we see a healthy ecosystem we are happy, and when we hear about a wolf that was killed we are sad.

You are a customer. There was a big issue in BC, your package from amazon was delayed and they refunded your money in full.

You are complaining because

1) the refund took two days to process, which you claim is unreasonable.

2) You are also complaining based on your emails that they didn't offer you a "rain cheque", depsite the fact that amazon does not offer rain cheque's, and in fact changes prices of item you have put in your cart.

You have now contacted a consumer protection advocate with this claim of fraud.

Good luck! This is the MOST ridiculous consumer complaint I have seen.

Are sellers treated like crap? For sure, that is a given. Sellers are not amazon's customers, there is no seller obsession, their is a customer obsession, and for the metrics amazon is watching what they did here probably makes sense, they can restock and reship these items to places they can deliver to.
> the business itself would always be there to contribute to cover the shortfall

This is problematic because companies aren't eternal, and stock performance is somewhat liked to economic conditions, so if stocks are struggling, the company might be struggling, making the pension obligations a double-whammy, actually putting the health of the company at risk.

These days, in the US, there seem to be a lot of romantic notions of pensions, and I'm not against them per se, but having them managed and tied to employers was a really bad idea.

Even something like "c" does not look like a good name anymore. For example searching for something C related often turns up hundreds of links for C++, C# many of them not relevant to the search topic.

Competition is not solely about the working environment.

Competition also happens in the social environment both during working hours with co-workers but most importantly once you clock out.

Once you clock out the competition moves to other venues: the bar, the club, the parking lot, the gym, the shooting range...

Each of those venues is embedded in the big city.

If you frequent certain places in NYC/LA and you know how to carry yourself and are socially competent, sooner rather than later you'd be offered a role in some independent film.

Also Poker games, big sport events which double as networking opportuinities, tennis clubs, yacht clubs....
For a company of that size, this must be trivial for Shopify to implement. Have a search engine that can search across all their stores, let stores to opt-in, curate/categorize the products very well, let users search with very narrow parameters, and above all, don't do "sponsored" listings (charge a $10 fee per store per month, or something like that) . The only tricky thing here would be the order of listings - which product comes first among competing stores? That would require some thought.

Imagine a brand new, tiny, unknown seller. This feature alone might be worth it for the seller to sign up with Shopify.

Because we tolerate it.

It doesn't seem so long ago we didn't have much of an ability to pick what music we listened to. This will seem alien to younger HNers, but it is true. You listened to what was played. Sure, there were records and 8 tracks et al, but portability was limited. Not being able to choose what we listened, when you listened to it, or how you listened to it to peaked with disco - the backlash hit simply because you could not escape it...it was EVERYWHERE....radio, tv, movies, commercials...it died of overexposure.

Then for a hot minute - about 35ish years - we had complete freedom to choose how and what we listen to. Starting at about 1980 with the Sony Walkman + cassette, you could organize music to be portable the way you wanted, at a price of time and effort. This price dropped to almost nothing by the mid 2010s with mp3s and mp3 players. Complete musical freedom!

The problem? Even "almost nothing" wasn't good enough, we demanded it to be "nothing". So here come the streaming services to rescue us from the burden of work required to maintain our freedom....

I just made this account to say that this really resonated with me. I also have a decent size of group of friends who I can relax and feel energized afterwards. We also drink and generally don't have a lot of social formalities.

But nothing drains my energy like my family and in-laws. We are from developing country with a lot of social and religious rules. And whenever I am with them I am not being myself. I have to keep my shield up.

Also I disagree with another sibling commenter said that the most of judging is only in our own mind. In my case when I turned 40, I decided enough is enough, I will just be myself with my family. I slowly lowered my guards, talked about movies that I really like, how I really treat my kids, what I really do on weekends, stopped eating obscene amount of food with them, etc.

And immediately, there was onslaught of judgemental comments, comments about accepting our new countries culture and forgetting our better culture (\s). But what really bothered me was the comments about my parenting style and how I was ruining my kids' life.
