Because that's the nature of bubbles?

Though bubbles are a bad analogy: actual bubbles burst, economic bubbles deflate - not because of a puncture, but because they were continuously filled with air from a source that at some point can't provide it anymore.
It seems to me that real estate will be one of the first bubbles to pop big like it did in 2008. Long term you might be ok, but it could take 10 years to recover what you paid for it when considering inflation. If you are pessimistic, moving into real estate as a hedge seems like a bad idea.
The viral part of GPL only applies when code is statically linked against other GPL code. Anything statically linked to GPL code becomes GPL.

However, distributing GPL code along side proprietary libraries that are dynamically linked together on the user's machine is allowed.

How do you conclude that quietly integrating malware into an image viewer was done "in good faith"? Because the author didn't twirl their mustache when they did it and claimed surprise that people were mad?
Just last week I read about these search operators like site:example.com and learned that you can also use them to block certain sites (with -sites:example.com) and combine them. That gave me the idea to build a UI that manages allowed/blocked sites and always adds them as a chain of operators to the query.

Today I had some free time so I've build https://my-search.surge.sh/ as POC.
It's a just static site. Everything is stored in localStorage. Works with Google and DuckDuckGo.

For now it's just a fun experiment, nothing more. Repo linked in the About page. Feedback welcome! :)

DISCLAIMER: I am not the developer, nor am in any way involved with ImageGlass.

Wow, this thread is like 35 minutes old and people are already jumping to conclusions, bashing the developer, bringing out the torches to burn them at stake.

Really disappointed seeing this on HN...

Perhaps the title itself is insinuating, and people are not patient enough to dig any deeper. Perhaps someone can add [quickly reverted] or something to the title?

That being said, I really wonder why people 100% believe other people act in bad faith. Looking into that Github issue (https://github.com/d2phap/ImageGlass/issues/1252 ), it feels more like the dev was not aware of the issues with the bad actor in question, and was also very quick to revert the issue and pull the affected release from Github. This is the best someone can do under this situation, and I'm sure they must have felt quite stressful... Maybe they are, even now, feeling the stress if they stumble upon this thread.

If the dev reads this: You did a great job fixing the issue, congrats!

Toxicity like this kills many projects and dreams, by the way.

EDIT: My argument rests on the assumption that the dev was acting in good faith. If it is proven to be otherwise, I will gladly retract my statement and apologize.
Well, it's a good question. How can you trust someone who thought this was okay? Even if they're just too ignorant to realize what they were doing, that's also a good reason not to trust them. What else will they think is a good idea?
You are right.

everyone makes a mistake at some point and the fact that the dev used the ip hijacking service's name in the commit message to me signals that he wasn't aware of how shady it is

Even if he was, a comment like "I don't think this is acceptable and will fork" is a lot more appropriate than "don't talk shit"
> But that can still result in negative returns on your investments.

Negative nominal returns, especially in the short term, yes. I don't dispute it, and if I said anything in the thread to suggest otherwise, I apologize. I'm concerned about long term real returns, in terms of something like purchasing power parity.
Depends on how much the real estate market is being fueled by the Stock Market. We've seen a bull market now for the last, what, 13 years? Is this continual wealth driving all the other prices upward?

As we saw in 2008/2009, financial markets are linked more so than they tell you. Diversifying your portfolio is a good idea, but having both real estate and stock investments is probably not in fact diversifying.
> Did that guy make a mistake? Obviously. Was it in good faith? It seemed so.

Adding unwitting users' computers to a proxy network by default is so obviously and blatantly unethical, it beggars belief. I'm not angry at the creator, because they seem oblivious. I am, however, extremely saddened and frustrated by their obliviousness. Like in no universe is it ever OK to do this even if nobody responds to your discord poll. It takes a real failure in responsible, ethical upbringing to get here. It takes a lack of consideration and empathy for other people to believe that including this isn't an act of aggression towards everyone who encounters the software.
Gwenview is pretty great, if there are builds for your platform then I highly recommend it. It's always been the perfect balance of well-designed and feature-filled for my uses.

How about opening a room and not having it scroll forever out from under me? How about clicking on a chat link to a long thread (or scrolling up to it) and having that scroll away randomly out from under me?

There’s very basic usability and performance things that frustrate me on a fundamental level. The rest is at the margins.

Also, the builtin @silent way to chat a thread without notifying anyone is gold. Same goes for reminders. Also it’s chat + a consistent way to communicate out for a team. Workplace solves actual problems working with other people. Google Chat simply does slack-like chat, and poorly at that.

Edit: also all those things are drastically simpler than inline threads but not as sexy which tells you something about what the incentive structure looks like here. Disclaimer. I’m an ex googler. Thought chat was good when it came out but it’s regressed since then.
Because tons of professions, small business, workers laid off, etc suffered from the lockdowns, so there was not exactly clear that "people had more money to spend".

> all you can do is hire based on past success

That’s kinda what they do.

You are put through an initial ringer to vet for basic fit and competence. Then you get a take-home exercise that consists of several business case studies. You have to detail a strategy for what you would do in that situation, support your argument with research, etc. My girlfriend said it’s a lot like writing a term paper in college.

Last time she interviewed it took her I think 2 or 3 days of full-time work to do the case studies.

Then you go back and defend/present/discuss your work at an interview.

Her job consists of doing basically that, but with a team, larger consequences, more direct ownership, and loooooonger processes because so many people get involved in everything. Her team is strategizing what could become a trillion dollar product (in like 10 years) if they get it right. It’s pretty cool.

> Have you considered that 99%+ of cases are mild or asymptomatic and that this reasoning amounts to confirmation bias? Especially with Omicron? Moreso in healthy people under 50 who are orders of magnitude less likely to suffer severe illness or complications.

Omicron is 90% less deadly than delta for unvaccinated people and there is a 100% lower risk to need mechanical ventilation, according to this paper:

https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.01.11.22269045v...

During the delta wave covid survivors had better immunization than people with only vaccination. This contradicts some of the mandates that are currently in place, such as in Germany, were people who previously recovered are still required to get a subsequent shot:

> This isn't the damn plague and it's high time we stopped acting like it was.

During the pandemic I looked up information about the public reaction to the Spanish Flu. It was almost exactly the same, including vaccines with unclear efficacy and anti-mask groups. However, the Spanish Flu killed up to 50 million people while the world's population was only 1.6 billion and it only took a couple of months.

Inflation. Food, bills, gas, etc.

This is not quite correct. Printing money does create inflation. Cross sector inflation does lead to devaluation of liquidity, but wealth includes more than cash on hand.
Wow, that was exceptionally well-stated. he defanged the majority of people who would verbally disagree with him with carefully stated conditions. And points out that the establishment has been entirely too self-confident wtihout expressing the limits of its knowledge.

It's pretty clear at this point, with the nature of omicron, that we will now be transitioning to an entirely new phase where large numbers of people ignore public health officials because they focus entirely too much on the most vulnerable at the expense of the mostly robust.

You're no worse off than any other human being that has ever lived. The fact that we have better understanding of economics simply allows us to actually know about the problems that people in the past went through blindly.

Generally speaking, humans have never had it so good as we do now:

> ou can't make people happy by law. If you said to a bunch of average people two hundred years ago "Would you be happy in a world where medical care is widely available, houses are clean, the world's music and sights and foods can be brought into your home at small cost, travelling even 100 miles is easy, childbirth is generally not fatal to mother or child, you don't have to die of dental abcesses and you don't have to do what the squire tells you" they'd think you were talking about the New Jerusalem and say 'yes'.

You probably have a warm and comfortable place to live that doesn't take much effort/energy to keep going. You have easy access to food and aren't subsistence farming or worrying about starvation. You have clean water and sanitation. You have the access to the best medicine that humanity has ever known.

You don't understand what the phrase "well under" means, do you? It means less than. Videos use less than 10MB/s. Netflix estimates 1-7GB per hour. Games need to load that much data in under a minute. Games don't stream data over an hour, they need to load a world instantly and can then stream in things you don't see. It's those bursts that matter, as that's what players are stuck waiting on to complete before they can get back to playing.

Think of it as if video keyframes were 1GB. Video streaming wouldn't exist in such a world as nobody is going to watch a loading spinner for 20 minutes. No, it'd all be a world of pre-fetched, downloaded content. Which unsurprisingly is exactly how game stores & consoles work.

What’s the distribution, though.

When I started as an engineer in a small startup over a decade ago, the ratio was similar, but mostly the higher ups were parents. The vast majority of engineering, sales and marketing were either unmarried or childless.

Many companies offering high salaries also have parental leave, so this may not be a factor either.
This is an ML framework (I'm not actually sure what it does) made by McKinsey. I don't know if it was always open sourced but now it has been "donated to the community" which I think means abandoned?

I'd be very curious to hear if anyone has used it and what impressions are on it's value. I've only heard some businessy talking points about it, and am hopefully understandably skeptical. If someone not from McKinsey had used it, I'd love to hear impressions.

I think there's a place for a lot of players: TypeScript, Python, Go, etc.

Rust however is not just an interesting side step like most languages that cannot point to real, measurable gains. When there are a limited number of languages that can fill a niche (systems, highest performance, limits on memory consumption), one of them has demonstrable improvements in ergonomics, stability, and security, and it has funding from an array of deep pockets, it would be a fool's errand to discount it even if it has a steeper learning curve than Python.
