There's no need for this, since parents entrust schools to supervise their children (read: control their interactions) during the school day. Outside of school, making sure you know whom your child is hanging out with, where they are, establishing a curfew, and other such limits are all generally hallmarks of good parenting.

There are obviously limits to the degree to which parents can/should control their kids, but not allowing a kid to interact with strangers on the internet falls well within them. Knowing (and controlling) which of your child's peers they are communicating with is no different from keeping tabs on which home your child is visiting (and staying in touch with friends' parents wherever needed), or which of their friends they're hanging out with at the mall.

I was compelled to chime in on this thread because it resonates with me, personally. I'm an Indian raised by immigrant parents, and growing up one of the most stark observations I made was just how coddled my American friends could sometimes come across — they could more or less get whatever they wanted or do whatever they wanted. My parents established boundaries over the kinds of games I played, whom I hung out with, and the activities I partook in. Not being able to get what you want sometimes, or do what the "cool kids" are doing is just a part of growing up for lots of people. I wouldn't call it "abuse", and that kind of discipline definitely set me up for success in the real world. I continue to have a great relationship with my parents, and intend to raise my children with the same kind of discipline.
You have the right to talk all you want. You don't have the right to force anyone to listen to you, nor to prevent others from pursuing their daily lives. Nor does freedom of speech imply that your speech is free from repercussions. The government (federal, state, or local) cannot prevent you from saying most things, or retaliating against you. But most everyone else can within the bounds of legality.

Freedom of speech means you can stand on the corner and yell about the "undisputed benefits of cryptocurrencies". It also means me and a group of my friends can surround you and sing "Baby Shark" repeatedly at the top of our lungs, drowning out your message.
Completely understand where you are coming from. I think a combo of both can be important. Some depth at one org is important to see the results of some of your decisions/actions.
+1 to this. I didn't start talking to one until my late 20's and my only regret is not starting sooner.
I can't help but feel like non-profits who name themselves after decentralized movements are often a grift. They count on people not knowing the difference and giving them money to support a cause they may or may not actually contribute to.

I should point out that this isn't universally true, the woman who set up the initial "Woman's March" event on Facebook, Teresa Shook, founded an organization of the same name, so there is some legitimacy to that org's claim there.
This event was ~9 years ago. Thats eons in the tech industry.

I'll grant you that most people will likely prefer PC gaming on Wimdows, but the claim of any sort of gaming is excessive. There is a large selection of native games from many publishers and in many genres for Linux. You won't have to go without if you're simply looking for a good time. That's before considering emulation, Proton, and the likes. Of course, a desire to play particular titles is going to be hit-or-miss.
>does that, absent a financial emergency power, mean we should normalize allowing foreign money to bankroll people with semis to blockade cities under the flag of protest?

If you're against that, the reasonable reaction would be to block foreign transfers and/or freeze the portion of funds that came from foreign sources, not ban them from the financial system entirely. Imagine the government shutting down an opposition candidate's campaign entirely, because it received a little too much money from foreign donors.
Maybe consider Planetscale / Vitess
Think of the following: there are many many paths to get from one location to another on a plane. If you imagine a function on the plane, it’s behavior as you walk along each part would have a sanity constraint. That (along with the constraints of behavior under complex conjugation, should you choose to impose “analyticity”) adds up to a lot of constraints, which is the “structure” in complex numbers — which makes complex analysis simple.
More questions to hopefully help you determine when you've found what you're looking for:

In the deadline-based environments you've worked in, what has provided you with reassurance about the quality of the code?

Is it your own assessment of the code, and/or the techniques you discovered by reading it, and/or the culture surrounding defect resolution?
Sean Kevin Campbell's article was some great investigative journalism. Highly recommend reading to anyone interested in deeper knowledge about this controversy. I've seen several pundits (on "both" sides) regurgitate his work inaccurately, so think reading his article directly is important.

You might be 10 years luckier. Consider home prices in 2019 versus 2009.
Since these firms charge a % of the deal they have an incentive to get higher valuations. It also looks good on their resume. But you can just look at their portfolio and see the exists they worked on, the valuation, who the acquirer was, etc. You can try and reach out to some founders to check if they liked working with the advisor too.
Very interesting.

Not using victims name. They are a minor. Report the facts. "A young man was shot dead by a former police officer after the man blew a whole in his front door. The young man had stalked the daughter living at the house." Facts. You'd need far better writing than mine, of course.

The piece is not a report. This is a shock / emotion piece and is part of the US behavior of sexualizing young girls. It is promoting her. You may find it reasonable that a 15 year old girl has one million followers, at least one of whom purchased pictures from her for $300. Or you may not. I'm just saying that the article is part of that system, and that putting yourself out there is going to get this kind of attention and that it demonstrably works as a means to get famous.
> They need to study deeper, why these young men engage in criminal activities in the first place, only to find themselves arrested and later ineligible for any job.

To be fair, almost all of the young men I knew growing up (in an affluent chunk of society) engaged in what were then criminal activities. Almost nobody established a criminal record because everyone was wealthy enough to be insulated from law enforcement (they could do the criminal activities in parents' basements and college dorms).

Maybe part of the issue is that many non-harmful behaviors have been criminalized.
Native code compilers have existed since about 2000 in commercial compilers, and there are JIT caches as well.
Right, but that's also true for the long jump. Why not use progressive approach for the distance? (I'm not advocating, just raising question to show that there is no design involved, mostly tradition)

Television emerged much later than most of Olympic sports, but affect many sports a lot, especially the one where international federation rips the TV rights fees (some sports delegate it to the local organizing federations and care less). For example, compulsory figures disappeared from figure skating largely because they didn't "sell" on TV and wasn't exciting to watch. Or table tennis ball got bigger to slow down the game and make it more appealing for TV.

And yet I'd love to see some research on theory of sports where spectators engagement was part of the model. For example in track cycling there is a weird discipline of individual sprint, where, as name suggests, the one who gets faster to the finish line wins. But here is the catch – they don't care about time, only about who crosses the line first. Given that airpressure behind fast-moving rider is low and saves around 30% of energy, it creates an incentive to be the second most of the time. Which leads to the weird interplay between cyclists where the literally stand still sometimes instead of rushing to the finish line. The even weirdest part is that this moment of suspension and speeding up like crazy after standing still – most exciting moment for spectators.

If we could have a framework to plug in all the requirements and constraints of the specific sport, and choose the trade-offs we want (including interest for viewers as you mentioned) based on model and not just intuition or loudest voice in the federation...
All you said are Russian propaganda talking points.

For example, how many TV stations has Russia shut down? Oh, all of them which dare to criticise Putin. Is this reason to now invade Russia?
Thank you for clarifying my post. That is indeed what what I meant.
That's fine, but there better not be any future articles with headlines like "People have fled the urban core and now the city is facing a tax crisis".

It's why newer versions of Firefox and Safari use segmented caches. Which, of course, means that loading fonts from a CDN no longer buys you anything at all.
Why would I want to choose software based on how well it worked for unintelligent people? Lets take installing software on Ubuntu. If you are used to downloading exes and msis a software store is an additional detail worse it doesn't have absolutely everything you could ever want right off the bat so you now need to learn about software sources.

On net I think the benefit of both is massive over simply downloading exes and msis but for some degree of user you have already crossed the threshhold of complexity they will sit down for. Isn't it ultimately OK to have different software for Grandma to watch netflix on and for techies to have on their desktop?
What's with all the paywall comments? I don't see one, with or without my adblocker running.
The benefit of an IDE is integrating compiler/editor/debugger/test runner/linter/profiler/source control/etc

If these things somehow prevent you from writing code that is as good as it would be without these integrations then what on earth were you doing? Apart from the “copilot” like things (which almost no one uses and which is orthogonal to the concept of IDEs, any editor can have that) what is “IDE-driven development”? Taking the first autocomplete suggestion after typing a dot in Java? instead of what? Reading docs? It’s not like the IDE having autocompletion for valid method names is forcing your hand to blindly take the first one or the wrong one? This reads a bit like that rant against syntax highlighting making developers bad.
> Gaining fortune through fame is a sucker's game

There is great wisdom in this line. I would extend that to say that true freedom is the ability to 'do what you want, when you want.'

Money is one pillar of this. It grants you the ability to have the material resources to do what you want. But, 2 confounders get in the way. Time and physical/environmental constraints. If you are gaining money (1 pillar) by compromising the others. Your net freedom stays the same.

This includes all sort of suckers games:

* Anonymity allows you to get away with anything without anyone noticing. Your example, addresses that freedom tradeoff.

* Working long hours (in something unfulfilling) involves trading off time for money

* Back breaking involves trading health for money

A truly wealthy person is anonymous, rich and has all the time in the world, because they don't need to work to sustain their wealth.

> I’m doing all i can to not get full-time employed. My biggest fear is mediocracy

I have a couple of years of work experience and studied for 8 years. I studied so much because science is my religion (10 years worth of degrees).

In any case, here is what I thought: I want to be rich now. Why? I want freedom. Alright. I'm not rich. Can I still get freedom? I did some calculations and noticed that in The Netherlands, I can get a salary of 5000 euro's right now (as the upperbound). So if I manage to work 3 days, then I get 3000 euro's (gross) which is more than enough. In The Netherlands, it's relatively doable to find jobs for 4 days, so finding a 3 day job should be doable.

Then it dawned on me. Do I want to work less? No, I need to work a bit to keep my mind sharp. I need to have a few days in the week where I don't fully do what I want, but where I do an activity that is highly logical (i.e. programming).

Currently I'm in a 4 day job situation, I'm enjoying my extra day off. I'm enjoying the remote flexibility. I'm enjoying the possibility to go to the office when I want to (the company is in a neighbouring country, so it's a small vacation really). I'm also enjoying the ability to start at 12 instead of 9.

I failed my way up. I graduated cum laude with game-design and graduated almost cum laude with computer science. No big tech company gave me a graduate interview. I became depressed because no one gave me a chance. People on HN reached out though but I mishandled it. That depression caused 18 months of applying for jobs and that's when I started my ascent of failing upwards. I started at a startup that underpaid me for 6 months, I left there because I wasn't passionate about them and because I felt underpaid. Then I went to unemployment benefits for 3 months, and I got my second job soon after. The second job was more high profile and better paid. I was let go because they felt I was too slow (after 6 months again). Now I'm on my third job and my "experience" allow me to command a salary between 4000 to 5000 euro's. It's kind of ridiculous that 2 years ago I could only get half that salary. I feel that I didn't even gain that much experience with those two jobs. I gained much more experience studying and doing jobs during my study days (as a software engineer and coding instructor).

So yea, that's my story. You can definitely see some things you might want to avoid ;-)

All I'm saying is: if you want to live now, find a 3 day job and make sure you live the rest of the 4 days. Currently I'm hyper focused on learning mathematics next to my job. Learning mathematics gives me real depth. Doing my job is okay and keeps my engine warm and running.
That's the point - a former embezzler being hired as a plumber is different than hiring them as a bookkeeper.

However, until the employees are more scarce than jobs, there's no reason to hire an ex-con and every reason to skip over them (bureaucratically speaking).

To counter that you'd need to offer incentives TO hire them - tax write-offs or something, or liability protections.

Or you have to expunge records at some point, which is another issue because that only affects government records, not other things background checks may find.
No, she was well known to the guides I was with, and we'd been following her for a while before she got up on that termite mound. I was lucky to get that shot, as she was being harassed by a hyena who didn't want her around, and she only sat down there for about a minute.
It's the analytics. If you want to see it really go crazy, just swivel your mouse cursor around over its window. It's tracking all that movement, and your CPU will spike. If you want it to blow up completely, block the telemetry endpoint and it'll just keep your every movement in RAM until you have none left and need to restart it.

I guess Twitter tries to get a cut off the Reddit pie.
This misses the point. There's an obvious solution: disallow employers (except in outlier cases where there are safety concerns) from using criminal background checks in hiring decisions.

> My parents are millionaires and they havent given me anything post undergraduate.

So they gave you everything until you were basically 22? Do you even realize how much of your life they've set up for you?

Generational wealth is mostly irrelevant for most kids anyway. They're not getting the wealth until the parents die (Parents tend to die when kids are in their 50s). The grandchildren will receive it much sooner than the parents will (in terms of relative position to their birth).
1st you shouldn't trust any site with anything.

BUT if you trust it with anything it's a password so that only you can prove that you are you. And then you use server side nonce hashing to ONLY compute that part securely wasting only the required cycles one each end to proove you are you period!

Then, if for some reason you need additional security on some ulterior action, say a payment, you just do the same trick again. That way you save your servers and the electricity grid from encrypting every meaningless cat picture in the world just because you are paranoid.

Electricity is not an energy source, we are going to pay a very high price for it soon. It's the most liquid energy form we have and therefor when oil becomes illiquid (both litteraly and economically because the quality of oil is degrading at a rapid pace) prices in electrons (which have no quality properties that differ) will explode!

Again read the RFC https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2289, and think about where you want to spend you energy, more customers or less energy for your own kids.
First off, congratulations! Chiming in as someone that interned at fb summer of 2016 (menlo park) and worked there from 2017 to 2020 (seattle)

Obviously your mileage will vary. The company was in a very different state in 2016 than it is now, but I'll list out the pros and cons I had going through the internship:

Pros

- Pay is good

- Free food is nice (if you're in person)

- Most if not all the people I worked w were great

- Nice to have some brand name on your resume

- This number may have changed but the signing bonus they gave to return interns starting fulltime was $75k so if you get an offer, this can put a real dent into your student loans if you have any

- It's maybe valuable to experience what the vibe is at a big tech company at least once (this was my reasoning for accepting the offer since prior to this I had only interned at smaller start-ups)

Cons

- The intern classes were v big and as a result, I didn't feel the same intern camaraderie I felt at internships elsewhere (also did not help that I was living in SF and commuting to Menlo Park, but also the intern events had like hundreds of people and always felt impersonal to me)

- I didn't feel like I was well matched to the intern project I ended up working on. While it was a part of the stack I wanted to work on, I was p disinterested in the actual substance of the work. Unfortunately interns don't get too much say on what they work on

- Similarly, who your manager ends up being and what the culture of the team you're working with will really impact your experience. I found I couldn't relate to a lot of the folks on my team as an intern (they were mostly parents that lived in the south bay which nothing against it but idk, me at 21 found this p jarring)

- A lot of Meta's tooling is internally built/maintained. While you're gonna be able to take what you learn and apply it to other places, they'll likely require some translation. A simple example is Meta uses mercurial whereas most places use git. (FWIW I actually prefer mercurial now having worked there full-time for 3+ years)

- Everything else having to do w Meta in the news etc.

I'd say if you do end up accepting, try to renegotiate it to a smaller engineering office, since the vibe at those places will end up being a lot different from the main campus (and IMO more "homey"). Personally, I found my internship experience pretty meh, but hey I accepted a full-time offer there (mostly to pay off student loans lmao) - but ended up staying way longer bc I ended up working on a team and product space I really vibed with.
There are actually three different justifications for prison:

* Retribution ("a punishment")

* General prevention ("a jailed person cannot keep hurting others and prison threat is a deterrent")

* Special prevention (rehabilitation)

Last time I looked, most countries are mostly for general prevention with a pinch of special prevention. Retribution is not currently defensible philosofically or technically, though some people errounesly think it's the basis of the system.
