This resonates with my experience.

You can tell the author is mostly worn out not from long hours or challenging technical work, but from fighting against the overwhelming inertia that faces building/shipping anything. It’s exhausting.
Can you site your reference or foundation for your comment please? Like to see a counter-point to what my understanding is.

I was always under the understanding that inequality was horrific 'tens of thousands of years from when humans were painting on caves'. If I was not producing enough for the tribe or group I would be left behind or worse. The strong ones had the most food, women, and best spot in the 'cave' i.e. inequality.
Opposite ideologies have value yes, I was emphasizing on consolidation of power in a select few and alluding to fake competition. Also, the fact that Dorsey is flip flopping on a decision you can ultimately pin on him can be attributed to financially driven. I’m not against or for the ban, they can do whatever they want with their property.
No bait is needed, Trump just needs the right excuse to backpedal and not lose face.
maybe he just needed to get banned.
It will amusing if people who bark all day about decentralized currencies lose a bunch of money because they still wanted the benefits of a centralized bank to hold their magic coin purses.
El Salvador doesn't have a currency, they operate in US dollars, a consequence of US's Neocolonial situation on the region, they are de facto a sorts of "economic colony"
I got a result dated 14 April 1981. It obviously wasn't published then, but did contain the words "born in April 1981"
I don't see the political climate shifting hard right.

Twitter un-banning Trump isn't an indicator of a political climate shift, although perhaps a social shift, or perhaps simply a one-off random Elon shift.
Excuse my reply, but he told you:

>"you're not special"

and you replied with

>"they literally begged me to work for them"

>"they just try to make their company look like the best place while apologizing profusely for their limited budget"

Do you not see how your 2 comments here give off the impression that you feel special? Maybe you don't feel special (like you explicitly say), but those two comments especially give a strong impression that you do feel special.

EDIT: I continued reading down this thread and I found a comment chain that perfectly encapsulates the "feeling special" observation: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31336614

>That’s a problem for Wired to solve.
Yea, they solve it with a paywall that results in X% conversion.
> Fairer for the supporters of a government that is

Can’t see the logic here. Government policies by definition affect everyone regardless of affiliation. Unless you’re implying corruption, which is orthogonal to this discussion.

A government is not a single-celled entity. Parlament, city and state legislatures, etc, are setup so that representation of all parts of society (even the non-supporters) can be achieved.
Very interesting - can you point me to sources on who is doing this successfully? Thanks!
Another proposal how distros (or at least a great distro in someone's opinion) should develop???
The problem could be solved by simply discussing definitions at the start of a debate, there's no need to come up with new vocabulary.
I'd be surprised if they were remotely worried about that, seems much more likely they either believe it to be the right thing to do on principle (as claimed) - of course, whether it's the free speech principle they claim, or a pro-Trump principle, is another question - or believe that the views/engagements they get from having him on Twitter outweigh the negatives.
Do they ever. And seem willing to adopt whatever might help, without thought to the long term integration consequences. The disaggregation of Salesforce is vast.
If someone makes you rich and successful with their business advice and you work with them for multiple years, would you ignore their phone call in the future and ignore their other suggestions? It’s not about being a master mind, there is soft power in play, humans are social animals.
Assuming that "crypto" was meant to refer only to cryptocurrency, there are a few companies working on non-blockchain/non-cryptocurrency crypto(graphic) tech which are paying as much as web dev jobs.

For example, I stumbled upon ockam.io during my last job search (no affiliation, and never interviewed with them as they weren't actively hiring when I wrote to them last year). I vaguely remember there being a few others, though I can't remember any names off the top of my head (it has definitely gotten harder searching for those kinds of companies as most job ads are drowned out by all the blockchain jobs). Old job posts on https://this-week-in-rust.org/ often contain a few interesting companies.

(Shameless plug: If anyone is interested in working at a non-profit focusing on non-blockchain cryptography in the field of multi-party computation, the company I'm working at is hiring at the moment and the salary ranges [for a 4-day work week] are listed: https://sinefoundation.notion.site/SINE-Job-Board-d28eda00c5...)

Choices one makes in data prep can be material with respect to interpretation. It would be nice to be able to get a data quality report which I could mark up and then apply as a set of operations to be performed via preprocess().
Yeah, I knew about heatmaps, but my eyes were opened further by a product that my current company uses that can replay a user’s actions on the entire site — it’s like watching over their shoulder.
Stocks in brokerages are safe in part because the SIPC exists. Being a priority creditor doesn’t help if, say, someone siphoned off all the Bitcoin.
So from what I can make of it, this is very similar to what we are doing in terms of the goal.

The only difference which I am thinking here is (based on just their front page), seems they are recording only function parameters and return values. If that understanding is correct, videobug is recording down to local variable level data (so lets say if you return a list from a db query and iterate over it in your business logic function, you will be able to see execution inside the loop.

Also, in the FAQ, it says the pre-production/production env is likely to be years away. While we are very early, we are definitely aiming videobug in pre-production to begin with.
I'm a huge Airtable fan. I use it to track personal finances and we use it for a ton of things at Whalesync.
That being said, was curious to explore some of the other cool database x spreadsheet tools out there. We put together a list of some of the most interesting ones:
> the modern American version just meaning “left”.

To add to this.

"Classical liberal" in the US means laissez faire as a form of government, and is an Americanism for liberal. "Liberal" in the US means closely associated with the Democratic Party, which is also "classically" liberal, but believes that preventing irrational discrimination against the societally disadvantaged trumps freedom of contract. "Neoliberal" also started as an Americanism for liberal but was retconned into referring to the philosophy that liberalism trumps democracy, so societies need to be rigged to support liberalism by any means necessary.

"Liberal" really just means "hands-off." If you're the Republican kind of liberal, you think that the only important thing is that the federal government keeps their hands off of things. If you're the Democratic kind of liberal, you also think that smaller institutions such as churches, Chambers of Commerce, Klan groups and state governments should also keep their hands off things, and that the federal government should be hands-on enforcing that. If you're a neoliberal, you think that the federal government, churches, Chambers of Commerce, Klan groups and state governments should be hands-on enforcing a hands-off policy when it comes to regulating finance or labor.

Both parties will veer from these principles when appealing to their illiberal bases (the religious right and the labor left), but feebly. turning those aberrations into what we call "wedge issues."
I think that it's really important for knowledge workers to think about these kinds of things. We (the HN target audience) are in one of the most lucrative professions in the world, and I think it's easy to lose perspective as a result.
Where did China get the money to do all of that? They're the poster child of benefiting from globalization and free-trade.
Sure. I used to respect Jack, now I’ve changed my mind.
They can it's just typically called hypocrisy.
These conversations are rarely productive because no attempt to find common ground is made. For example you just assume that a coal miner is hard work. I assume a coal miner is easy work. You seem to think things like physical exertion, working conditions, or danger define what is “hard work” while I define the chance of failure to define what is hard work. The average coal worker has almost no chance of failure. They are told where to go, told what to do, told how to do it. They do it and then get paid. Easy work. Writing a successful novel is hard work. The author just sits in an air conditioned room in front of a computer for 6 months clicking keys on a keyboard. So why is that hard work? Because they are most likely going to fail to complete the novel, or even having completed it, are likely to fail at gaining a significant audience. Most people who try fail, hence hard work.

Neither of us is right or wrong, we just have different world views. Finding common ground between our world views is a critical first step to having any productive conversation.
There's tweets calling for harming Supreme Court justices now; are those OK?
As the saying goes, out of the frying pan, in to the fire.
I hadn't thought of that, thanks. I suppose if there's a trend of users quitting when they get to a certain sign up field, the company can determine if that field can be changed or removed.
I don't see it as greed, I see it as rejection of corporate greed at their expense.

Why should a corporation make more money from your work when others like you are not giving them as much?

> And so the LFG bought a bunch of Bitcoin and promised to use it to defend Terra’s peg to the dollar. If one Terra goes down to $0.90, instead of turning Terra into Luna and selling them in a death spiral, the LFG can buy Terra for $0.90 and pay for it in Bitcoin. If the LFG has enough Bitcoin, and if Bitcoin’s price holds up, then it can defend the peg and keep the price of Terra close to $1.

So they've basically re-invented fractional reserve banking, with Terra/Luna taking the place of bank notes in old-timey banking, and BTC being the gold bars sitting in bank vaults, in this metaphor.
Why did you feel the need for a new account?
Wired is not trying to sell to you.

You clicked a link to a Wired article that someone posted on Hacker News. Wired was not involved.

Digital properties aren't going to be groomed to meet your precise tastes. This is doubly so for general interest publications like Wired that have to appeal to a broad base of viewers and can't charge more than a few bucks for a subscription.

If the article is valuable but paywalled, there are ways to get around that. Try turning off Javascript or accessing the page in an incognito browser. archive.ph can also work.
I don't think that is a flaw when the majority of people don't even have the knowledge to think further on these topics, and people tend to act rather simplistically most of their lives anyway. In your own example, think about what would happen if all these dead weights suddenly became more competitive. I don't think the working class fully realizes what will happen when we boost it some more, despite recent events in the 20th century inflating the working class at the benefit of entrepreneurs and the detriment of (already participating?) workers.

Like ideally, if I was in such a situation, I'd want my coworkers to work more so I could slack. In reality, I don't think them working harder would benefit me in the long term, due to numerous other factors (myself, the boss, wealth pipelines, etc.)
I think you're right. My initial response was to say that I'd just get up and leave, but you're right.

You're already there, you've spent the time to prepare and get there on time, etc. Might as well get as much benefit from it as you can. So use the time to hone your interviewing skills and deal with the hostility, while knowing full well that you are not going to take the job. But you'll work on making yourself as appealing as possible. And you never know if one of those interviewers will admire how you handled the situation and recommend you to someone else, or you'll come across them in another interview years later.

So yeah, make the best of the situation and use it to your advantage.
They problem is that Trump also said he wanted the protestors to be peaceful. We don't know what he intended. For you to pretend you do is nonsense.

Now, where Trump is guilt is his actions after the events started. He should have within minutes been calling for it to stop and doing all he could to get police or national guard there to help. This is where I wish the impeachment investigation would have gone, sadly that was a rushed mess.
Does that matter? If the idea flies and someone does the work (maybe the opposite order) a new one could emerge.
The prelude to the first US Civil War occurred over several decades.

Things don't necessarily go hot all at once.

The notion of a second or cold civil war has been in play for some years now, increasingly since 2016.

I am an Engineering Manager at a FAANG company and I would hate to see my team work on evenings and weekends and think their work-life balance is good that way. If an IC on my team would do this, I would be concerned about them burning out as well.

It also makes me think that my philosophy about work is probably not compatible with working in a startup. Normalizing excessive working hours is something I don't see myself doing any time soon.

What do you mean here? Aren't all approaches limited by the number of observables available (except speculatively)?
I can be proven wrong, but I suspect that solid state won't be price viable for a long time.

LFP and sodium ion chemistries are improving to an economic sweet spot that solid state may not be able to compete in without a lot of scaling and risk.

LFP at 230-260 wh/kg will probably be able to handle all the Tesla ranges of 300-400 mile packs, especially given their reduced need for heat management so their cell-to-pack densities are higher.

Sodium Ion at 150-200 wh/kg will be even cheaper than LFP, and can probably handle the 200-300 mile range EV, which will probably handle 90% of consumer transport in high density cities in China, India, Europe, Latin America, and other places.

Solid State will then be competing for high-end applications (well, there is still semis/heavy transport, but LFP may be good enough for that too). I don't think it is good enough for air transport. Li-S may beat it out economically as well.

But options are always good, and there will be lots of room for different flavors of batteries.
> This is precisely why compensation at Google is what it is: to capture a chunk of talent and cordon it off from the potential of creating value elsewhere...

I recall reading a thread on some facebook group where the OP was freshly hired at an (undisclosed) Large Company with amazing compensation only to do... well, nothing in particular for there weeks at the time of writing.

Commenters tried to make sense of it and figured that either no one is in control of the budget or he's essentially "parked" for a project that's supposed to launch at the start of the next quarter.

But perhaps the said company was large enough to engage in such practices.
Lehman Brothers was "not the most important player" and yet, look what its failure triggered.

Both Sides is quite the global, age-old narrative that most people are vulnerable to. The two sides couldn't be more different than ever, if you'd care to see what Biden and Democrats have actually passed in the last 16 months.

There's been more fury over Pelosi buying shares of US companies than there was over Trump pumping stocks on national TV, or about the leadup to Roe vs Wade, or about the right's attack on democracy. Which is what both sides fallacies has always done, always, by default it serves the shittier of two sides and makes people disinterested or impractical. And now it's louder and more exploited than ever thanks to social media. Thanks to you.

If you are a proponent of the Both Sides Fallacy in the year 2022, you need a hard look at reality of the last 100+ years and the last 16+ months. You're helping the red wade and helping to move the Overton Window further right, learning nothing from the protest and non-voters of 2016, paying no attention to the reality of how many positive things have been done in the past 16 months, and things that have been 180 different from the previous four years, but you just see the Both Sides headlines.

If your crypto isn't actually in your own wallet you are really just someone's creditor.

The whole point of crypto wallets is that you don't need such central businesses to hold your cash.

There is no specific reason for a program that uses the XDG dirs on other unices to not use them on macOS, other than some idea that it's "alien".

You can have ~/.config/. Nothing in macOS prevents you from having it. And so, some programs do. The worst thing that happens is that, instead of having one directoy ~/.foo you now have one directory ~/.config/foo and nothing else in ~/.config. But as soon as you add the second thing that uses ~/.config, you now have two directories in there instead of a second dotdirectory in ~.

It's just that for a bunch of them the XDG path is only used if it exists - e.g. emacs predates the spec, so it uses ~/.emacs.d (and a few others) first.

Cargo doesn't use the XDG paths at all, apparently - https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/1734. However it also needs a directory for binaries (~/.cargo/bin) and ~/.local/bin isn't actually in the spec at the moment (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-specs/-/issues/14).

What i don't understand is why don't people create their own wallet and keep their funds there? Isn't that the entire purpose?
