The author thinks that laughter, comedy will be used in that case as an oppressive mean of compliance, confusion and blinding, so as to extinguish or constraint moral considerations and humanity feelings.

And that kind of ring a bell when listening to a few friends/family that have been touched by far/alt-right discourse the past few years.

Of course, there will be people to react - but comedy, as any other, is a tool to gather masses of people in one specific direction.

I only think that violent, dictatorial personalities cannot keep self-distancing themselves long enough to stay the comedy posture. They will crack ugly soon enough.
> But they say the worst punishment was being sent to the school's basement. Lütfullah says the teachers told him ghosts lived there, and children including him were locked there in the dark, alone, for hours at a time.

I wasn't aware the US or Canadian governments had institutionalized these kinds of punishment (or similar) to specifically indigenous people in a peaceful period. Was this really the case and were could I read more about it?

In any case I don't think it's fair to compare present crimes of a country with past crimes of another, if anything, it would be fair to compare present crimes of both countries. It's hard to find a country a century ago that didn't behave like an absolute savage.

Most people can read 5-10x faster than they can speak. Videos are very difficult to skim compared to text. If your video is trying to inform people, and there is no emotional content that's lost by cutting, then you're playing a losing game time-wise against just publishing text. People get bored pretty quickly, so people use jump cutting on YouTube to increase information bandwidth from the default that's frankly unacceptably slow to many viewers. None of it actually ends up fast enough for me, it is rare that I will suffer through a YouTube video that I could read about instead. In order to beat reading, IMO you need to use the visual bandwidth too, like 3Blue1Brown does. A talking head YouTube video is the worst of all worlds, but that's where people's audiences are, so they're just trying to make it bearable.

Cutting also removes ums and ahs. Newsreaders take ages to get good at this at speed, so giving people these tools makes video more accessible as a publishing medium.

This doesn't make sense. A skilless women can always be a prostitute. And they earn a lot better than construction workers who aren't exactly skillless in the first place given they are capable of doing physical labour. Men are paid for their ability to work, while women's bodies have intrinsic value just for being a female. I know it's not the most politically correct example, but skillless women are clearly valued more than their counterpart men, reason why you don't see as many homeless women as men.

Before making any change to kernel you need a strong use case description and explanation why it's not possible with current methods. Often, building this case is harder/more time consuming than writing the code itself.

This is kindof a soft-RFC model. You drum the drum until there is enough understanding and momentum to get the change in.

What I liked about math in engineering school was that after a certain point, it was really all about numerical methods. Because it is such an applied field, of course you want actual numbers - that's your bread and butter. You first learn the basics, the same way a mathematician learns something, but afterwards it's all simulation and approximations.

During grad school, however, there was a complete shift from this - IMO. You suddenly had more classes with with math for mathematicians. Of course, this was because you took a lot more advanced and cutting edge classes, which were often built on various fields of math. New tech often follows that route...breakthrough discoveries in math or physics, which is often described in dense mathematical language. Before it eventually gets more applied and approximated forms, which are more suited for real-life uses.

I've also noticed that working engineers tend to be much better at mental computation, than most researchers / scientists. But that obviously comes from years of work experience.

Once I got past calculus, it seemed like we stopped caring about numbers. Plenty of 0s and 1s, the occasion 2, but rarely a 3 or higher. I remember one theorem had a 24 in the derivation (Stone-Weierstrass, I want to say?) and we were all amazed.

Given that, who needs arithmetic?

> What's "up" isn't strictly generational, but a question of who's fallen into a black hole where they waste their time on social media and have no work ethic because they've never felt the slightest need or pressure to scrub toilets or bus tables. I'm thankful to be from a generation where we had to do grunt work, from well before 16, and where friends were people you hung out with in real life when your job was done. What we're really seeing is the halo effect of pampering and coddling of kids

'rants' like this scare the shit out of me. minimum wages have not kept up with inflation and gig work platforms and zero hour contracts have killed unions. financialization of the housing market means working class people are becoming lifelong renters. you see this and tell me people are lazy and that we are coddling children? huh?

> If anyone had complained they were too good to do hard work in the '90s, you would have risked being seen as an elite rich snob.

> The boomers did a real bad job of raising their kids.

i think you'd benefit from applying a marxist/dialectical materialist lens that recognizes that real power coming from belonging to the propertied class. you seem to be close to it yet you are still using a term like 'boomer', which is in my opinion a useless term as it suggests that all folks from the baby boomer generation have much in common; which is not the case as some are born into the propertied class and have a lot of opportunities and chances to fail and get back up again. most boomers are born working class and thus without those chances (on somewhat of a scale of course, but more often than not it means a much tougher path in life).

Looks like things escalated since 2008.
I know it's not the point, but how/why did you have $100 worth of pizza in the refrigerator?

Edit: I'm trying to imagine scenarios where that could happen, I have two so far. You ordered pizza for a meeting that got canceled, and the office refrigerator was huge. Or you ordered from a fancy pizza place that had waygu or something as a topping. I'm sorry, I don't know why this is bothering me so much.

> relatively conservative improvement on the existing f-22

F-22 is an air superiority fighter for the Cold War. It's a nice bird, sure, but it is... obsolete?

What tasks it can do _now_ what cannot be solved by a force of F-15/18 + F-35 with a complement of UAVs? The only one what comes to mind is a deep incursions into the enemy territory... which is realistically wouldn't be needed, because the only two countries what could require such operations by the time of such operations would required would already end the war or end the war by a nuclear fire.

> working against, eg china

Exactly like it's described. Bait at the front, trucks at 50-150km behind, local C2 and data aggregation in F-35s spread behind the front.

The difference between fighting a ragtags with AKs and a country with a sophisticated AA system is what you WANT to provoke AA so it would disclose its position and so you could react to it. Also it means you /will have/ a big amount of losses and of course you would prefer to lose UAVs or at most the type you have 3x in the inventory.

> A reason to never build an awesome fighter jet again?

Why not? Build it. But never let it fly where it can be actually shot down.

The US knew when <X> satellite imagery company's satellites were going to go overhead at some US base, waited for the image to be taken and then moved all its aircraft before a missile attack recently by Iran (or Iran proxies).

They know 100% who is buying what imagery, and when the satellites will be overhead.

There is 0% chance that this is a mistake. I wouldn't be surprised if the US can OK or not OK the images that make their way to Google Maps - in France, every government site gets censored before it makes its way to Google Maps.

>But that's also probably why the rent in Paris or Berlin is less than the rent in New York or San Francisco.

Rent price in absolute terms is meaningless. You should look relative as in at the local rent/income ratios. Parisians and Berliners do pay less rent than New Yorkers but they earn way less too.

Also poor and dirty Berlin is not comparable to NY, SF or even Paris, even though some techies make good money there.
> An English translation only came about in 2017, already at the close of the ‘populist’ decade.

As a citizen of Germany I would have classified Trump as the epitome of populist politics (not that there are a myriad other examples around the world).

Worse than that is the mention of Housekeeping/Janitorial which in high demand areas pays around $40/hour and might even fill a schedule. At these typical rates that means something like $30k-$50k/year which is not enough to live well in areas with demand for these services and is also around that level where taxes begin to sharply increase and take a large part of any extra that is earned. So why aren't people choosing to be badly compensated for demeaning low status work? It is a bizarre mystery to be sure.
I was born in '65. My dad had a regular job, mum didn't work and I have 3 siblings. We lived, what would be classed today as, a lower middle-class lifestyle.

Aside from earnings and cost of living, the one thing I believe that has changed is that I don't remember knowing of many people living a much better life than I was at the time.

Now it seems everyone is, even those earning much less than I do. Driving a car you could never be able to buy outright, multiple foreign holidays, fine dining and designer clothing are pretty much the norm these days because, somehow, people feel entitled to such a lifestyle regardless of their ability to finance it.

Here we go again. Based on what? I have no clue what you're referring to. But I see this kind of comment on HN again and again. There was a couple of throwaway accounts used to make allegations about them, and then a blogger who cited those throwaway posts and then HN posts that cited the blogger (infinite loop of "evidence"!) and when I asked for at least some explanation of their claims(because I actually work in the display industry), I never got a reply. Look at my comment history. Nobody has ever given me an answer to above that is even remotely believable.
SIMD was a issue but now mitigated.
I think for Linus Media Group the main "meta" issue is that they don't have a dedicated member of staff to handle boring day-to-day IT / sysadmin tasks that you don't make videos about. A video about building a crazy storage server is content for a video so gets done, but somebody needs to make sure its still working / updated, and you don't make videos about routine maintenance that so its forgotten.

Although everyone else can learn the important lesson that RAID / ZFS isn't magic and you need to have stuff setup correctly and monitored. The fact that RAID isn't a backup as well[1].

[1] Although if the LMG servers affected are just for data hoarding raw footage that is unlikely to be needed again, it's possible the risk / cost balance pushes away from backups and just relying on RAID, but that's a niche case (and they lost the gamble...).
So how do you connect to the device? Serial? or it drops a file in a virtual drive?
Er. Python is one of, if not the most popular languages on the planet, and its official/primary implementation is only just now moving towards JIT, having been interpreted for the previous 3 decades.

I worked in a role at Amazon that required me to interact with a different team every 1-3 weeks. I would often sit directly with the teams as I was doing work with them for the duration.

There are teams at Amazon full of some of the best technical and professional managers on the planet. There are teams at Amazon that are so brutally driven that they will sacrifice anything, even accepting an incomplete pentest audit and a forgoing week's worth of sleep, to hit a launch date.

I personally had a close friend on my team get PIPed and it was obviously a play from management to get rid of him. I have another friend who had to take months off after leaving because of the abuse she experienced. I have other close friends who have stayed for years.

It's such a big organization and the leadership chains are so decentralized that you get a wide variety of emergent patterns, and the decentralization makes it hard for people across the organization to know about the experiences of other teams.

Edit: in general I wouldn't say the horror stories are the norm at all from what I've seen.
I have always aimed to have a day job in fields that I'm interested in. Not everyone has this luxury, but I have. So for me, considering I am currently in a situation I really like, "enough" _right now_ is being able to pay my bills and have my entertainment expenses while also being able to save/invest a reasonable amount on the side for retirement. I would not, for example, stop what I'm doing just because another higher earning offer comes along. I like what I'm doing and make enough doing it.

I live in a country with a general and occupational pension scheme, but I also save on the side for myself. This is not only to supplement that, but in case one day I decide to just do something totally different. Go start a farm or something, even though that's not what I want to do right now. For me, that feeling of freedom of being able to pivot whenever I want to something else is the _long term_ sweet spot of "enough". It's a hard goal to reach, because I get anxious about finances when I'm not earning even though I have savings in the bank, so that number will have to be especially high for me to feel safe. But I think it is doable.

The Life in The Simpsons Is No Longer Attainable

The most famous dysfunctional family of 1990s television enjoyed, by today’s standards, an almost dreamily secure existence.

This, I hate that we spend so much time on build related stuff.

If your concern is what it will do for housing prices for the most poor-- those are the people receiving section 8 (about 8% of the population).

If you're talking about the next slug up in income: they'd have some more money. Assuming 100% of this money is captured by necessities is pessimistic, IMO. And since we'd be getting rid of e.g. EITC, as you get to higher incomes UBI doesn't necessarily inject a ton more cash into the household.

UBI is redistributive. It inherently moves money around; purchasing power for some (the poorest) will increase and for others (the richest) will decrease. Yes, shocks to pricing will erode a small part of this effect.

One other thing to note: a UBI makes living in lower cost of living areas (with more housing supply) much more attractive, and makes relocation feasible for populations that never had the money to move. $1K/mo from the feds goes much further in Wyoming than San Francisco.
All these incredible security measures, and yet multiple people talking about them on a public forum...
