The problem you keep running into is that if we, as a society, value free speech, then we, as a society, also value the angry mob, because they are also exhibiting free speech! You can't just ignore the angry mob's rights, just because you don't like what they're saying.

If you like free speech and dislike cancel culture, the people to be angry at are the decision makers who kowtow to the mob's demands, not the mob itself (since they're just exercising their free speech, which you claim to support), but even then, aren't those decision makers just expressing themselves, too?
Interesting I had an OLD project associated with a Gmail email address that would send emails in some cases.

There's only 1 real answer to hiring.

Make sure the candidate's personality is a good fit for the team, have them do a fair coding question, and then hire them quickly. Give them 3 months to become productive and if not, fire them quickly and give a 3 month severance package.

You can probably analyze the data and figure out which of the employees are good at spotting good candidates and lean on them to make the decisions, but overall fast-hire-fast-fire is the best for everyone, except for fake candidates.

This also gives you the opportunity to take chances on borderline candidates or candidates with less experience.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_the_Universe :

> Lloyd also postulates that the Universe can be fully simulated using a quantum computer; however, in the absence of a theory of quantum gravity, such a simulation is not yet possible. "Particles not only collide, they compute."

Quantum on Silicon looks cheaper in today dollars.

Devide the universe in QFT field-equal halves A and B, take energy from A to make B look like A, then add qubit error correction, and tell me if there's enough energy to simulate the actual universe on a universe QC with no instruction pipeline.
I did this. I had a folder with a few printed sheets of code hiding some slightly tricky C/C++ bugs from our codebase. I would ask the candidate to see if they could identify the issue. I don't think anyone ever actually got them but at least I got an idea of their thought process and experience. So mixed results.

Some points from the All in Pod.

1. The Twitter board of directors has become a status thing. It's like a country club. They don't have real skin in the game; they don't own much stock. They're not aligned with the shareholders. It's about status and cultural power.

2. Why should we believe that the company will become more valuable when the stock price is where it was way back in December 2013? Compare to how the S&P or Tesla did during this period. Twitter has languished for a long time.

3. They should put it to shareholder vote.

4. One AI engineer from Tesla could solve Twitter's bot and spam problem.

5. The elites have somehow inverted history so they now believe that it is not censorship that is the favored tool of fascists and authoritarians, even though every fascist and despot in history used censorship to maintain power, but instead believe free speech, free discourse, and free thought are the instruments of repression.
Why would you slaughter humans? They have more value to society than meat, such as in economic output. Non-human animals have no such utility, that's why they're used for meat. (Well, I guess draft animals have been used in farming, so that's extra utility they have, but we have industrialization for that now.)
Sure he could pay for it, but buying the company (and taking it private) is potentially a way to get paid for access. Web archives - like common crawl - are snap shots of the past, but twitter users react and discuss events in real time.

Reliably parsing and interpreting new, potentially unreliable data is part of that whole AI-complete thing.
The people I know who like to drink the most are also people I would say are highly anxious, which makes me wonder if they're using alcohol as self medication. Just an informal observation---not claiming a universal truth here.
Parler failed because it was never actually able to do and be what the incoming user base thought they were promised —- a free, uncensored bastion. Since that would never work at a bigger size with mainstream attention, there’s no real diff. Parler being a grift makes it all muddied any how.

I think the salient point is the impotence of the SEC.
I find it interesting too. I guess it's the idea of all that money moving around and how it's done.

"mega loan" is my term. I just didn't have any other term for the super super large loans.

'Its unlikely one bank will make the complete loan, is it also impossible?" Don't really know but any one bank that would make a loan that size would carry too much risk and would have to answer to someone on why they would make the loan and take such risk.

"And what percentage of the loan do you think the service fees will be?" I've heard of 1-3% for a $100 million loan. For $43B it would be less but it would be negotiated. I bet Musk would fight for every dollar.

"How common is a mega loan?" These type of loans are few and rare and there are only a handful of companies that can arrange them. Morgan Stanley is advising Musk.

Here's an article I read regarding who he picked.

As a total outsider the key pieces of Yishan's leadership I remember are:

* His "every man is responsible for his soul" view on free speech absolutism ( https://web.archive.org/web/20140908001917/http://www.reddit... ) -- somewhat different, I think, from current policy ( https://www.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043513411 )

* Promising Condé Nast that if they surrendered some equity the tech people would build a big company and then ... delivering as promised? Advance Publications has gotta be pretty happy with where their investment has gone and I think it's credible it wouldn't have happened without the equity changes
My IDE journey started with Borland products for MS-DOS.

Yes.

Today’s supposed “cancel culture” is substantially gentler than any time in history. We enjoy rights to free speech broader and stronger than ever.

Ask HN: What's a good resource for developing my own accessory structure plans?
Apparently if I want to build something less than 120 square feet, I can do whatever I want, but if it's bigger I need to do some structural engineering to show my structure can handle wind shear, uplift, seismic activity, etc—even it's just a 200 square foot chicken coop!

Since it's a bit silly to pay someone to do that for a humble chicken coop, and since learning how to do it sounds fun: have any of you developed plans for your own small structure and gotten them approved by your city? I'm in Los Angeles County.
I interpreted it as a strategy: assume that all founders will act like con artists towards their employees ("all smoke and mirrors", "empty promises"), so make sure from the start that you don't end up a sucker.

The Vox article says

> The LVT also has an appealing underlying moral framework: The luck to own a piece of land that happens to appreciate — say, you bought a house in San Francisco before the tech boom — should not come with it the ability to extract rents without providing value.

It seems a bit presumptious to say it is all luck - that somebody couldn't have predicted that the land would appreciate and thus bought early as a strategic move.
And why is it _never_ the reason given by the censors?

When topics are banned, some banal comment about verifiability or some other non-descript reason is given.

> Look this isn't the answer you want but no amount of meat is ethical. A living being has to die and there's no way to justify that that doesn't lean into some kind of cop out supremacist argument.

This is contingent on your specific version of ethics, which not everyone (I'd argue most people) shares. Otherwise, barring those who have only meat to survive such as in the arctic, everyone would be vegan.

That being said, I'd be wary of an all-meat diet, OP should carefully evaluate whether they're getting all their nutrients from only meat, and not develop other issues like rhabdomyolysis.

Correct, without analytics attached.
This attitude here is precisely why local zoning is ineffective. The people who are negatively impacted by anti-development policies are the ones that don't get the privilege of living in economically powerful population centers in the first place. Sure, the home-owners might grumble about an apartment blocking their view, more crowded restaurants, or "neighborhood character as a city grows. The people who are negatively impacted by anti-growth policy are people struggling to afford rent in increasingly subdivided units, and the people who can't even afford to move there in the first place.

I don’t the claim is that cancel culture is new, but the rate and method is new. It happens more frequently for different topics.

That’s what I think of when I hear “cancel culture.” When you present an example from the 18th century, that’s not a very useful rebuttal. It seems like you either don’t understand, are deflecting, or using a “but all lives matter” argument.

I've heard that "have a nice day" is prescriptive or even rude before and I just don't get it. It's not saying "I demand you have a good day", it's "I hope you have a good day".

Samsung wanted to enter the Public Cloud Space, ( The kind of business they would be interested in ), but their NAND and DRAM division would suffer order reduction from hyper scalers. In the end they sort of back off this segment of business.
Yes, the article is a vapid piece of crap. I wish I had the time I spent reading it back.
All in Podcast can be fun but it's way more on the side of entertainment than information/insight. There is a lot of self-serving narratives on that show, and I think they'd be the first to admit it. One of them was saying a few weeks ago that the root cause of the Russian invasion of Ukraine was Twitter, so you know.. grain of salt and all that.
Ask it differently. Ask it about time.

"Does it make sense that the people voting today can decide to stop other people from voting here in the future?"

That's what zoning, housing policy and other local government decisions are capable of doing.
In the case of the code we're talking about here, gcc/clang do rely on inlining to optimize down to the single printf. I don't think there's any actual compiler that does the dangerous and invalid optimization in the article.
> You have a handful of examples you're clinging to, which show some people doing something you don't like, so EVERYONE MUST BE DOING IT.

I feel like more than 50% of this thread right now is doing exactly this and is unaware they are doing it.

To be fair though. There does exist corporations who has a proven history of trying to push a specific point of view, case and point: Fox News.

People assume that since Fox News exists, there must also exist an equal, but opposite: MSNBC, CNN, and (maybe) now Twitter or whatever...

In my opinion, this sort of false equivalencies is extremely counter productive and dangerous to our society.
Am I crazy? Yishan's whole thread is completely irrelevant because it assumes Musk is telling the truth when he says he cares about free speech. Free speech enforcement is probably pretty low on Elon's list of reasons to buy Twitter.
I don't think they know yet.

It's pretty plain that source code exfiltration occurred, though. It's not clear to me how exactly to confirm that the exfiltration happened to your account or not.

From the other thread:

> GitHub indicates they are performing an audit and if they find such evidence they will notify each account/org within the next 72 hours.
NPR's headline isn't really descriptive. A library makes books available for free by definition.

What the New York public library is doing is to temporarily make some "banned" titles available through an app. And they are doing it for literally just 4 books, with only one of them available to children under the age of 13. [1]

Of course, the real banned books are the ones which are unlikely to be included in an initiative like this.

as a person new to recovery, i can definitely say that alcoholism was the direct result of my social anxiety.
It sounds like you just admitted that it wasn't boring and irrelevant.
One other reason i can think of, a pencil has a near zero chance of leaving smudges on paper or marks on your hands/clothing. Also, a better choice if you are writing on both sides of the paper and it isn't super thick, because pencil writing won't be visible on the other side of the paper.
"Cheers" is my go-to. "Thanks" has somewhat positive connotations, and "Best" has a little stink on it.

If I ever send an email that ends in "Toodles" that's exclusively because I need for the person to understand the depth of my disdain for them or the predicament that led to that email in a way that is not subject to legal action or discovery.
I don't think anyone argues against the idea that people should belong to the community in which they're voting. But the question is, how fine or coarse grained of a "community" should be in charge of land use. For instance, someone who stays unemployed in a poor region passing up jobs in Seattle or San Francisco because of housing shortages is arguably just as affected as home owners that have to deal with greater density. But only the latter gets to decide local zoning laws.
How would they "win?"

By dumping more money into the corrupt bureaucratic black hole?

The problem isn't taxes. It is spending. In the US, record taxes are being collected, almost every year, but somehow the government waste machine just never has enough money to send to their pals.
I’m not aware of any society where racism is a crime. In the US discrimination due to racism is a crime. Those are different things.
The fiduciary obligation is to act in the company's (not shareholders') best interests, not to maximise (short term) shareholder value. If the board has grounds to believe they can increase the value of the company over the long term by more than Musk's present offer is doing, they're right to do this and are legally safe.
He claims that he wants to “retain as many shareholders as is allowed by the law” [0] which is just as fictional as it was when he pretended to try to take Telsa private.

Again, why would Elon Musk, with net worth near 300 billion dollars, go through all this trouble to maybe save 0.01% of his net worth in fines in some hypothetical scenario? The ROI seems absolutely terrible for that theory.

And why when Trump and the Republican party was in power in 2018, did they allow Musk+Tesla to be fined if there is such a tight relationship along 'anti-regulation' lines between the SEC and the President/political party in power?

And again, if he cares about political influence, why go through all this trouble and why not just directly incentivize politicians?
> The reality of this myth is actually more significant - detonating the warhead on the bars can be at least as bad as if it had hit the defended vehicle and, in some cases, actually a worse result for the defended vehicle.

Probably from this paragraph. It confused me as well. Throughout the whole article he’s building a case for how bad the armour is, if not worse than no slat armour, then concludes the article with “well broadly, it’s probably still better”.
Given the extremely strong negative reaction to alcohol that patients who are taking Disulfiram experience and given that this is apparently the sole effect that alcohol abuse cessation treatment using it relies on, it is my belief that the treatment is unconscionable and inhumane.

I quit drinking after more than 25 years of problematic drinking using naltrexone (The Sinclair Method) and, given my experience with alcohol, it was the easiest thing I've ever done.

I urge people who have a problem with drinking and wish to quit, who for whatever reason do not feel that 12 step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous are right for them to find a doctor who is willing and able to prescribe naltrexone and have a serious discussion with them. Had I known it was effective as it is I probably would have been able to stop drinking 20 years sooner than I did.
The other thing I love about Seattle is that in a lot of places you could park on either side of the street facing either direction. Another one of those weird customs that people just seemed to go with
No, I think the affected person is happy making a killing on their real estate investment. Property taxes are linked to property values, if the value of your home goes up so high that property taxes are unaffordable then their must have seen significant gains in their real estate values.
> One AI engineer from Tesla could solve Twitter’s bot and spam problem

I think you underestimate how hard the problem is or you don’t fully understand how it works. The scale at which Twitter operates makes it near impossible to take down spam in real time. You don’t think Twitter is working on it, but they are. What you see is a much smaller percentage of the actual spam generated, and the reason you see it is because users are creative on circumventing all the preventive actions they take.
