This seems like a way of sugar-coating the actual content strategy Netflix deploys, which has much more to do with product placement than it does content production. Their strategy is to align their content productions with the brands that best correlate with their subscriber base. In so doing, they can create lucrative deals with brands where their products are intricately woven into the stories/narratives of the show.

As an example, Stranger Things featured an average of 9 minutes of product placement for each episode of their third season. [0] The company claims they did not receive any payments from brands for this placement [1], but they likely received other extremely valuable considerations in the form of payment instead.

It's exceedingly unlikely, as historically there's no resident population with African descent and migration was very limited; a black person could have been born and raised in a Russian city, but that would be a rare occurrence as those people are far outnumbered by tourists or temporary students from Africa; and this would also depend on the city - Moscow is a bit more international where e.g. Patrice Lumumba University teaching elites from USSR-friendly African states, however for most regional cities with million+ people there were literally 0 people with African descent when the Iron Curtain fell, so obviously any current adult black person could not have been born and raised there.
Netflix was never a “Big Tech stock”. It’s revenue was nothing compared to the Microsofts, Apples, Amazon’s and Google’s of the world.
Is it possible in your view for any new trend to be bad and worth fighting against? It's hard for me to see how this doesn't reduce to a content-free "nothing really matters" objection.
The 3/180? Awesome score.

That's the "one big box" version of the 3/75 and pair of Sun shoeboxes that I once bought for home. (Bought used, from the local Sun office, which would occasionally email out of list old gear to sysadmins at customer sites, but for quite a lot more money than $25, unfortunately.)

Hopefully the 3/180 isn't as crazy-loud as the big old 4/390 that my employer was still using for email and some NFS.
well i mean it is, relatively speaking....
As an alternative and as long as it's not for main content, I'm okay with horizontal scrolling sections where you can partially see the next item as a hint that it's scrollable e.g. the iOS and Android store pages use this for screenshots.

You can code this with basic CSS too unlike most carousel behaviours that have complex code for simulating scrolling and looping. If you check the open/closed GitHub issues on most carousel plugins, you'll see what a big source of bugs they are.

https://www.nngroup.com/articles/horizontal-scrolling/ (2014) says to avoid horizontal scrolling on desktop but is there anything more recent and with metrics?
Wow, that's pretty fucked up.

“Cutting phrases like “whitelist/blacklist” and “master/slave” out of our vocabulary not only addresses years of habitual bias in tech terminology,”

no it doesn’t. it does literally nothing except make a person feel like they did something when they did nothing, like posting a black square on instagram, so they can go right back to being a starbucks slurping propaganda watching cow.

“Shifts in our speech like swapping “manned” for “crewed” spaceflight are attempts to correct histories of erasing women and non-binary people from the industries where they work.”

yea I can’t wait for the sequel to Hidden Figures where we learn it wasn’t actually black women who were responsible for landing a man on the moon (should we say land a person on the moon?), it was actually nonbinary otherkin with purple hair who really made it happen. it will be called Extremely Hidden Figures

I don't think I agree with this level of negativity around plex, radarr, and sonarr. Using a seedbox provider and all of these things are setup and don't need any additional tinkering. You are right that the indexer is probably the least friendly part, but set it up once and it keeps working for over 6 months at a time.

Just don't be thinking about mixing ARM and x86 in the same Kubernetes cluster. Like even if you technically can run a multi-arch kubernetes cluster, it's a major footgun. Docker's multi-architecture support leaves a lot to be desired and is a real pain to work with.

It reminds me of what a friend called the "Pavlovian alarm clock training".

Set an alarm clock for five minutes, jumps onto the bed pretending to sleep, and when the alarm goes off, immediately get up and walk around. Do this several times every day and for a few days, and you'll have an easier time getting up to the alarm in the morning. And it worked for me.

It's fortunate that I don't have to resort to this anymore (plenty of sleeping time, now). But it was pretty useful when I during middle school, especially at the end of long vacations.

Last time politically retaliatory legislation proposed in Florida made it on HN, it carved out exemptions for, and gave a free pass to, Disney[1].

It's interesting to see just how capricious their politicians can be, but that's what happens when they try to appease populist movements that are driven by one moral panic to another.

However, I do think this is a 'doing the right thing for the wrong reasons' situation, as Disney's clearly been given sweetheart deals and privileges from the state that other groups don't get to enjoy. But I could be wrong, though, as I haven't really looked into it that much.

Sovereign debt is, put simply, how money is created.

ALL debt creates money. If you use your credit card, you are creating money that allows you to buy something that you don't have the cash in hand for. The problem with that is that you have to EARN that money so you can pay it back.

That's called "borrowing from your future."

Sovereign debt IS NO DIFFERENT.

The US has already spent that thirty trillion (and probably more, in truth). If you don't want the dollar to collapse, that thirty trillion ought to be paid back. It won't be, because the US is bankrupt. There's no way to restructure the US economy without it collapsing into chaos.

If you have dollars, spend them to obtain things that are "real"* while you can, otherwise you'll be left with thousands/millions of pieces of colored paper. Think that can't happen? When was the last time you paid for a burger with Confederate Dollars?

* "real" in this case means something that actually exists, like a lump of copper, or a building, or a bicycle, of a ton of rice. Money or gold in a bank is not yours as the bank can confiscate it at any time: You are classed as 'an unsecured creditor' of the bank.

Verizon FIOS and Comcast/Xfinity already offer 2+ Gbps, plus AT&T and Frontier.
>So saying "it's quite obviously x" seems trivially wrong.

No one in this chain said that, however. Some person gave an opinion and you then replied with "you don't have any knowledge on this". Even though in this case, it is indeed a cultural question which everyone has some knowledge and likely opinion on.

If you want to encourage others to seek more information out (if it's out there), then sure. But at some point it just sounds like you're appealing to an authority that doesn't exist here. And honestly, who IS the authority of a thing like language and its usage is a conversation in and of itself.
Yeesh. I didn't know about that page. I'm glad I have a customized feed.
Funny. I remember graduating over 20 years ago. My first job out of University was on a construction site as a supervisory engineer. My direct manager, a crusty old guy, took me aside one day and explained to me the importance and necessity of applying the word "fuck" as part of my role. This was not a joke on his part. He had observed that I was a soft university educated well spoken book type. Nobody who I was supervising was going to take me seriously ever. I never actually applied his advice to the full extent but I did learn to toughen up somewhat .
People usually can’t. I tried and I failed.

This is a design flaw in Teslas [0]. The radar it uses has trouble seeing large stationary or slow-moving objects. Tesla refuses to use state of the art safety technology while developing these autonomous cars ostensibly in the name of safety. Not one, but two people have lost their lives because a Tesla failed to see a tractor trailer and collided with it [1]. I would have thought after the first time that happened it would be the last, but no. Tesla didn't have to change a thing about their design, and they are still allowed to beta test these things among the unwitting general public. Most everybody hasn't agreed to be part of Tesla's beta program, and yet we're subject to these machines with flawed sensor systems that Tesla just refuses to update to a safer technology. Why? People have died because of this, they're causing damage all over the place, and all they want is to put more out there as fast as possible. Why haven't they fixed the flaw that killed a man in 2016, and then killed a man the same way in 2019. How many bodies and how much damage exactly is enough before Elon Musk is forced to fix this thing? It's absolutely ludicrous these cars are allowed on public roads.

My primary home server _is_ my old desktop with some extra drives in there. It can be useful to have a bit more stability for something that you want to be generally up and change less than your workstation setup, and that drives the need for the extra setup. Then I've got a pi for some low load services that I'd rather not be on the same host as anything internet accessible in case of a security vulnerability (things are containerised, but container escape exploits still feel like they come up relatively frequently).

The only thing I feel I'm missing over over a real server would be an IPMI so I can boot it remotely in the event of a power loss. There are solutions to use a rPi for that which I plan to look into... some day.
After so many years we realize we still haven't solved any of the most important problems plaguing our species and so people just stop having children, deeming it too cruel to continue to produce more people forced to live a life just for the sake of an experience their parents want to have. We go out with a whimper rather than a bang.
That still requires you to have cable…
Sure. The OED even lists them as contemporary coinages:

[1965 Wireless World July 49/2 (advt.) Contact tail variations..include..tails for direct mounting to a ‘mother’ printed circuit board.]
1965 Electronics 6 Sept. 36/1 Nine daughterboards, each carrying 30 circuit packages, go on each side of a motherboard.

However, that's just an analogy: it doesn't actually tell you anything about what the motherboard does or why. In that sense, I think mainboard is actually a bit more descriptive: it's the principal interconnect between all of the device's parts.
Or...Common Lisp, most of the implementations of which can take full advantage of modern SMP cores.
Probably because being open about allowing adult content will risk advertisers on the rest of the platform and the loss of those advertisers might outweigh the revenue from OnlyFans type profiles.

While I was pregnant with my son: woo, got my Baby Buddy instance spun up, now to integrate it with Home Assistant and my idea for a Mycroft-driven baby monitor!

After he was born, through now as a toddler: Baby Buddy ensured that I really was waking him up to feed every four hours as a newborn and helped us keep tabs on fevers vs. diaper signs, because my brain is broken.

> should not be mandatory for all.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of hard-and-fast rules. If you think remote work is what is best for you and the company, you should discuss and arrangement with your manager. I'm sure the company is just setting these rules because they need to send a clear message, and they want to try and contain remote work.

Keep in mind that working remotely is still seen as an impediment to career development. People who work in the office tend to get promoted faster. Their work is more visible, they are presented with more opportunities, and, for lack of a better word, they can "schmooze" more.
Auto-routing can be done (and has been done in some designers), but it never generates ideal routes. In low-speed trivial designs, not usually a big issue (ie. if you can make it work on a breadboard, it might work well enough even on a horribly routed board).

Auto-placement is really a problem though. Good PCB design is nearly 100% about placement before you even start routing, and requires a higher level understanding of the design to get right. The last thing you want on an even semi-non-trivial design is to have something start moving your components and traces around in a non-controlled way.

Part of the problem is your "Pros" don't need/want or use either feature, and your amateurs don't understand how to solve un-obvious (and obvious!) issues that the auto-placer/router might introduce until it's too late and the board has been fab'ed and money wasted.

Which means the folks making the design software don't really have a huge interest in making these features at all, or even improving them if they exist.

I'm rapidly running out of things on Netflix I actually want to see but haven't gotten around to. Once I run out, I'm not sure why I would keep the service around.
We have similar issues with CL out here in rural NM. One interesting alternative are both commercial and cooperative microwave-based almost-mesh networks. We just signed up with one that ultimately ties back into CL somewhere, but is the only way the its 4000 members would get internet within a 400 square mile area.
Thanks for the insight! My perspective was colored by thinking about it exclusively after it had blown up in the media. I see how it could have been very different when it was still potentially just an internal debate about internal communication culture.
It's an amortized zero cost because training material is continuously out of date and churning anyway. Amortized in the sense that the cost would be paid one way or the other, because people would still be updating their documentation.
Also don’t move to rural America if you’re going to be upset by gunfire. It’s most prevalent during hunting season of course, but plenty of people plink at all times of year.
And thus many of them rely on the cross town busses. Which would be brought to a stop if what you propose was implemented.

I have the opposite problem. I want it to restart overnight and come back to find it blocked by my terminal being open.

Incidentally iTerm will block a restart too, and is useful to have open all the time anyway!
It's literally the N in FAANG, a term that came from the investment world and referred to (at the time) the five tech stocks that had the most impressive performance.
I spent some time working with a fascinating engineer by the name of Greg Priest-Dorman, who for various reasons uses a pair of chording keyboards. He attaches one to one hand/wrist, and the other IIRC is loose for setting on desks. With this setup, he quite successfully types standing, sitting, walking around, etc.
If the target is trying to kill you, this calculus is less relevant.
No, my own devs will write insane nested types at the detriment of all developers who end up looking at that code later.

Routes = Union[GooglyRoutes, MetaRoutes]

Where,
GooglyRoutes=Union[List[CloudyRoutes], Sequence[AdseyRoutes]]

Where CloudyRoutes = Union[RouteContainers]

And then they'd import these types all over the python repo creating all kinds of import issues. Fml.
Do you write? Learning how to use (and modify) the Zettelkasten system has really helped me unload the thoughts on my mind while keeping things in order. I started using Obsidian a year or two ago, and it's been really nice having a place to dump all my thoughts and questions when they crop up. Then later, when I'm bored, I can research and append answers/findings to the notes and flesh out my collected data even more. You're welcome to do an interview/podcast setup if you feel like that would be a better outlet, but I think everyone in this position owes it to themselves to try writing stuff in a way that makes sense to them.

If you're particularly interested in computer science stuff, there's a lot of great outlets for piquing your curiosity. When I was in high school, I spent hundreds of hours in IRC chats reading technical discussions and asking prolific users questions about their craft. There's also Matrix, but I have trouble finding good technical servers on there (and don't have time for this stuff much these days anyways). They're both pretty deep rabbit holes, though.

I think the most important thing, though, is keeping things in perspective. Being an effective learner is a lot like zen gardening, carefully partitioning your attention between everything that requires your care, while staying organized and calm doing it. Zen gardeners also don't spend 7+ hours gardening, either; you probably shouldn't put too much of your time into research either. I wasted so much of my youth reading into things I have no use for, and that time is non-refundable. Reading the Quake 2 source code sure gives you a buzz in the moment, but I missed homecoming to do so. And I still don't have a use for the fast inverse square root function.

I'm sure you've got a good head on your shoulders with this stuff, but my advice is simply to remain organized and vigilant. Asking questions is always good, but there are more things to life than just learning. Keep your focus on moving forwards, and seek knowledge tactically.
consumers don’t everywhere react instantly to price changes. the number of lost subscribers is likely to be greater than what you see today as consumers explore alternatives over time and change. though by how much i don’t know. (for example, it pushed me past the edge to install Jellyfin & friends, but i’m keeping Netflix as backup until i’m comfortable/confident with my new setup).
I disagree with the other reply. I think it was his brainchild, though more recently I've only heard horror stories/shitposts about Evan's management style.
I mean, the reason the self-driving community is furious at Tesla (well, Musk) is because they publish half-assed features like this and then push on the responsibility to the owners, and you'll always end up with idiots.

(I'm sure the engineers at Tesla are just as dissatisfied about the state of things, but Musk is relentless. I'm glad I chose not to work there)
