Eventually got tired of Netflix's money cow strategy by sacrificing quality - buying original ideas and ruining them with more seasons for the sake of engagement: Designated Survivor, Money Heist, etc. Piggybacking on categories that rate higher on IMDB: Korean copycats, cheap documentaries, reality shows.

They know how to cater to public sentiment because biased reviews lead to higher ratings, hoping the brainwashing is not apparent - recent drop in subscribers proves them wrong.
I think using an adblocker and uninstalling the YouTube app should be sufficient. The downside being that the playback quality is worse (720p max, I think).
Because 90% of people don't even know it exists despite Google flashing it in their face every now and then inside the YouTube's app. And the second thing is like other people said the price; $10 a month is just too much for the moderate income people taking in consideration they have other subscription/s plus costs of living are rising without signs of stopping.
I simply don't use the YouTube app on mobile. I use YouTube via the brave browser which automatically blocks ads. Not the best experience since you can't background videos playing, but it works for me.
Yeah it was way more than just losing 500k daily users

>Even Americans get kind of brainwashed that their local culture is inferior

In small town USA, the local culture usually is inferior. The local culture tends to be very monoculture. It's the larger cities where the culture tends to be more diverse. Getting out of small town into the nearest larger town opened me up to a hell of a lot more than the people that never left. However, even in that larger town, it's still limited. Yes, I eventually went to the west coast to have even more multi-cultural experience. Later, I even got to finally start travelling internationally to expand that multi-cultural experience further.

Maybe it's a broad brush to paint with, but my local culture 100% was inferior, but I imagine it's not unique
>I imagine in Europe, it's probably Paris and London that draws both French/British and foreigners.

Lol no. Most people go in Paris because it's where they can found a job opportunity or for studies but wouldn't have otherwise, and a whole part of the country (which I belong too) view it has a place to actively avoid for living. And I can't think of anyone that's hated more outside of Paris than Parisians.
You're right. But it is a little harder to get kubernetes up and running with a load balancer and your own domain.
Obviously not for people who are already familiar with it..
Yes, IQ tests spacial intelligence, a very European and male specific thing. But that is an actual form of intelligence, it's not a waste of time.

Reading books. So at Stanford nobody watched TV. I think later Netflix, a bit. The only time I knew a peer was watching television was some girls in my dorm getting together to watch Gossip Girl, and only that. Just that show. And it was a very abnormal thing, nobody else anything at all. Keep in mind you can play eg Super Smash Bros at the library, there's a video game section in the library and you can play video games if you want. You can try out new titles. I did that.

If you watch TV, you won't get into Stanford, basically.
AdGuard and use the web version of YouTube.
The wording should indeed be course and not article. Having to pay for articles seem to be a bit frowned upon.
> I don't think it's transphobic to push back on trans activists.

You say you're part of several vulnerable populations, but you don't ask the world to "accommodate" you - but the complains trans people have about Chappelle are not about 'making their lives easier.'

Where transphobia (or any prejudicial viewpoint) comes into play is refusing to take vulnerable populations' viewpoints seriously. When trans people point out that they are at much greater risk of violence and also point out studies on how rhetoric contributes to dehumanization promotes violence - you need to take the idea that this isn't "what comedians do" because the impact of saying things about different groups will be different.

Transphobia isn't "disagreeing with trans people" - in this case it's not taking peoples' views seriously because they are trans. When you say "I have problems too but I don't bother people about it" - you suggest that your problems are similar to trans peoples'. It is explictly illegal to discriminate against you for your mental health conditions, but trans people have far fewer protections[1]. Considering that Texas just recently criminalized being trans under the age of 18, I would really ask you to consider if that view is correct and how it makes you look to say it.

Edit: I got a little ramble-y - in general: oppression is possible when vulnerable populations' descriptions of why and how they are treated worse are not taken seriously. People in vulnerable populations can be wrong (like all of us!) - but in order to point that out in a way that doesn't promote oppression you have to start your disagreement from a point where what you are disagreeing with is a position that the vulnerable population agrees they hold.

For sure. Amazon will pay $300K in Vancouver for a DevOps role. That’s just one data point, but I can tell you it has never looked this good by half. The pandemic changed everything.
Just a one note text page. I have a normal list, and linked a set of sub lists that link from the top. Then I have a 'today' list of the really important stuff that must get done that day.
That's correct and it is still the case.
In fact I myself have been convinced by argument. You state that a naturalistic, materialistic framework is the only one consistent with all the observed evidence, but of course it is not consistent with the observed evidence regarding the existence/origin of life, which is what we’re discussing (and which is the only interesting question). I have referenced a book in my original post that spells the whole argument out.
Can it be licensed and run on bare-metal?
There are some edge cases because of which this had to be done, I think. For example calling static methods via the instance variables, the actual method called would be the static type of the variable at compile time and not the actual type at runtime:

public static void main(String[] args) {
Parent instance = new Child();

if (instance instanceof Child p) {
instance.print(); // prints Parent
p.print(); // prints Child
}
}

static class Parent {
static void print() {
System.out.println("Parent");
}
}

static class Child extends Parent {
static void print() {
System.out.println("Child");
}
}

Hence, with flow typing, existing code could break in subtle ways.

Quote from the article:

"Bad U.S. policy surely didn't cause the infant formula crisis, but it just as surely made the situation worse than it needed to be."

Much of the article seems to be making the argument that the FDA is preventing importation of formula from other nations during the crisis because the FDA hasn't done all its bureaucratic work wrt certification of those sources. This seems a relevant point to raise when we're talking about food shortages for infants.
The DSM is a book full of things that (a particular group of) academic doctors think should be considered to be illnesses. It's previously included homosexuality and "gender identity disorder" (transgenderism).

It's a not a bad source, obviously, but being in a book does not make things diseases or not.

That said, in my (medical) opinion, alcoholism and other addictions are much better to be considered (and treated) as diseases.
Awesome. I’ve always worried what it can handle, and therefore only run projects on it until they were more serious. But in that context, I’ve never had a problem (and run them longer than that anyway). To around the 50-100k user per month. Mostly reads tho.

> The healthcare system, as the last two years have shown, are completely inadequate.

If by "inadequate" you mean "can be improved", then of course, all systems can be improved. If you mean it is fundamentally unsound then I feel this is completely unfounded. My family has had 3 seperate health-care events during their lifetime, the latest cancer related in an COIVD-overloaded emergency setting, that would have bankrupt us multiple times over had we been in the US (and yes, they are all remarkably healthy individuals, no diabetes, etc. in general). Even in the latest case the health-care we recieved was amazing, over a month of hospitalizatoin, for which we will see ZERO bills. The latest treatement, monoclonal antibody based chemo, ZERO bills. Was there stress? Yes, but I can hardly imagine a better overall outcome.

If you are rich, in Canada, you can get whatever healthcare you want, just like in the US. If you are middle-class or poorer, the difference betweent the two systems is so vastly different it's mind-boggling.

That is not true. The supply of luna coins kept increasing, which means that new money was being pumped in without corresponding sellers. Furthermore, while on one side luna coins were being destroyed to support the tera peg on the other side new supply of luna coins was being created and new money brought in. This new money went to the luna foundation which used it to pay the yield on the anchor protocol.
I think the most distinct enum types I've had in a project was maybe 20? At some point we need to realize that this is bikeshedding.
it seems like the sort of thing that would work well in a space that already has a culture of sharing the roads amongst various transportation modes, and where drivers are already generally respectful and courteous towards other road users. I can see why it works well in the netherlands.

I think it's a little naive to imagine it would work in north america. drivers here need more than a gentle reminder to not run other users off the road.
I disagree. In particular, there is not a gay president. How did Pete Buttigieg do well? He dropped out, ranking behind Biden and Sanders. In other words, he was supported by but a fringe group. Just him running means nothing.

It will be a while before a trans president is a realistic prospect. The U.S. have yet to elect a female leader of the country 40 years after that was a thing in the UK, and 20 years after Germany. The U.S. now have an openly gay secretary of transportation, hardly a key position in the administration. Germany had their openly gay vice-chancellor and secretary of state a decade ago.

I was starting a recruiting business w/ a consulting model (charge for time, not commission on placements), which is a cutthroat, competitive business. I needed big fat margins because I had to grow the business w/ cash flow, and I started from -1000 USD in the bank. I got one customer to pay me 5000 USD in advance for one job, and that was how I got traction. I needed help, and my first hire was a woman w/ a STEM masters from a good school, and she needed a job. I paid her 15/hour while paying myself 12/hour. Things were tight for a really long time!

I think these interpretations are incorrect. Part of being in the Schengen zone is that police can continue right across borders in hot pursuit, etc. The German officials probably wouldn't have searched a non-EU diplomat because that wouldn't have been cleared up by a discussion with his superior.

There are order of magnitude 15x as many gay people as transgendered people, so you’d expect by chance alone that it would be quite rare for a transgender person to be elected to a role that is contested every 4 years and changes every 5 years on average.

I think society will be ready long before the statistical chance of an otherwise front-runner happening to also be transgender is likely to be satisfied.

GDP does not represent wealth, it's a measure of current economic production. Furthermore, GDP is skewed for some countries where GNP might be a better figure (e.g., Ireland, where a fair chunk of the domestic production accrues to foreigners operating in the country).

Table 2-1 in [1] lists mean wealth per adult per country, with Monaco first ($324,721), Switzerland second ($231,354) and the US third ($215,146) as far as I can tell. Median wealth figures are of course worse.

Never heard anyone in Germany dreaming of going to Berlin to "make it" as a software engineer, as if there was a mythical Silicon Valley-like atmosphere of opportunity. Correct me if I'm wrong and I'm missing out!

You can go for that Berlin lifestyle and to work in some neat startups (as an underpaid employee) but that's not the canonical definition for succcess imo.

Hey, American citizen, PR status.

I have heard horror stories from friends who have migrated to the US—a doctor acquaintance from Mexico comes to mind. The Canadian system seems…deterministic? If 10 people feed the same paperwork and money into the Canadian system, they both end up with the same result. If 10 people feed paperwork and money into the US system: utter random chaos.
I'm looking at it, there's an "away" status for tasks waiting on someone else. Also tasks can be sequential so that's naturally blocking. Doesn't appear to be collaborative. It's a very nice interface and I'm seriously considering it. My friction is that I have a bunch of work projects that I'm not sure if I should dump them into momentum, which seems more personally aimed.

This seems like a great way to produce head on collisions.
of course they wanted, and it might still be a good deal for them long term. But compared to market rates, the USD/hour is smaller in Tesla than at most tech companies. Musk makes up the difference with PR: he sales the job so well that people are willing to take a paycut to work there. Nothing wrong with that, also nothing wrong with being convinced to spend more on a car than you need too, in fact I think most Americans do anyway...
Ha. You’re proving OP’s point without realizing it. Replace “Paris” with “New York City” and your statements are equally true.
There is a lot more. You are forced to list pronouns, declare your gender at conferences, read daily articles about trans people in all major newspapers.

Prospective Supreme court justices have to delegate the definition of "woman" to a biologist.

And you'll be called transphobic at the slightest infraction of the ever growing set of rules.

> Another feature, that Java finally adopts, after decades of not adopting it

Java has been steadily moving in this direction for quite a few years now. It's tricky business. There's the language proper, and there's the JVM, which are interdependent. Both are aiming to remain backwards compatible. Introducing new major language features is not an easy feat.
I hadn't thought about that, but many engines are often shipped completely dry. No coolant, no oil, no gasoline. A ship sinks, worst case is some cast metal sitting on the bottom of the ocean.
Just don't draw any lines and even on wide (>2 cars) roads people seem to hug the center pretty naturally (IME, there are probably cultural differences between how people drive in different places that matter here).

The strange part about this road is that there were so many lines by the edge of the road, that's legitimately pretty confusing. I'm not sure if it's confusing in an unsafe way, but it's definitely uncomfortable.

I'd love to know if someone has a link to someone knowledgeable comparing "all these lines for edge lanes" to "just don't draw anything".

It’s simply a “point” brought up by a few people with little concrete evidence to prove it. I find this type of journalism to be closer to a gossip column (driven by intelligence agencies and the people that want to believe it is true) rather than a true news story with appropriate facts. The reporting on the Ukraine conflict is borderline pathetic and mostly driven by people that have no idea what is truly happening. Who’s propaganda do you want to believe?
An artificial shortage is still, functionally, a shortage.

It doesn't really matter whether there aren't enough candidates, or there are plenty of candidates but they all wipe out during interviews - the result is still an inability to hire at the desired rate, and in that situation you don't court massive layoffs without a reason.
Is there proper tutorial for people who have never used heroku? I just don't know how to use this because i dont have any experience with heroku.

I'm interesting in self-hosted AWS api compatible solutions.

Parse is also interesting. In fact I discovered that there is a whole new world outside AWS and DO. It no longer makes sense for me to run weekend projects on AWS outright, thats really for large enterprise applications.

What I would love is to be able to deploy my docker images on my "own"cloud running on a dozen droplets/VPS around the world and bill my users at the same rate that AWS is charging. I figure I would be able to undercut AWS significantly with this method.

Storing 2TB on AWS was price shock for me, makes no sense when there are dedicated servers with a ton of storage and bandwidth that I could just use instead of being "serverless".

However, I find it to be a hall of mirrors, wondering if anybody on HN has been in my shoes and how they are handling it. I guess my biggest concerns:

- uptime availability (can I promise close to AWS?)

- security (how do i harden my box/selfcloud and have peace of mind?)

- IAM type of roles/permissions (how do i emulate something like IAM for my team?)

Like the billing from AWS is getting to a point where I feel like we can use bunch of droplets behind some "selfcloud" that manages all these things for me. I'm sure a solution exists, I just often have trouble recalling their names. Dokku makes it easy to remember because it sorta rhymes with Heroku.
