No people most certainly did. I live in an area where covid vaccine fears, ivermectin, all sorts of crazy stuff was routine convo but all businesses were okay with me wearing a mask. They rolled their eyes but accommodated me. the “militant” group was definitely not pro-mask. Also, it’s a facemask. Decent people would take a small hit to not get others sick. But it was more profitable to deny, sow doubt and stomp around screaming freedom.

"The younger to do this the better. "

It helps, being healthy, but you are allmost never too old for travelling and new experiences.

Too many people are just existing and not living. Money is important, especially when you do not have it, but you cannot take your money with you, when you leave. And sure you can pass it on. But in my family a great drama is now happening, because of the money of the grandparents and how to split it up (one of them is even still alive).

My grandmother probably should have "wasted" more of it on her travels. (but she did travel until she could not walk anymore)
This shouldn't really be an either-or.

People who want to and can work remotely should move to suburbs, dropping rents and housing costs in the dense urban centers.

Suburbs should also be redesigned with more neighborhood commercial so that they're less designed around driving for miles to massive clusters of big box stores.

It would also be interesting to have more decentralized density, so clusters of density out in present-day suburbia. That could provide a bit more population density to support the commercial real estate for the surrounding low density residential.
IANAL but probably. The intern is trading on (possibly) material non-public information. Now, if the intern is just making a small purchase, they may well get away with it. But trading on things like inside financial information, an M&A, major partnership, etc. before they're made public (I think the language one sees is actually before the public has had time to absorb the information) is pretty much the definition of insider trading.
> Do you have any evidence for the claim that minmaxing causes a steep drop off in overall expected utility?

My evidence is just experience with optimization/utility theory. If you're looking for a paper describing this one takeaway out of thousands from this body of theory, I'm not sure what it's called.

In general, any strategic constraint reduces EV, unless the constraint happens to already be a component of the optimal strategy. That doesn't tell you how steep the dropoff is, just that it exists. Determining the variance/EV tradeoff precisely depends entirely on the structure of the optimization space.

However, any complex optimization space exhibits essentially the same behavior; crushing the outcome distribution to be super narrow (latency, wealth, ROI, test scores, etc.) is typically only possible at great cost to the median and average cases.
The tweet is in response to a preliminary paper [1] [2] studying text found in images generated by, e.g., "Two whales talking about food, with

Kubernetes in a sense is very similar to Linux back in the 2000s - it was nascent technology in a hot market that was still absolutely evolving. The difference now is that everyone knows the battle for the next tier of the platform is where people will be able to sell their value (look at RedHat selling to IBM for the saddled legacy of maintaining an OS as a tough growth proposition). For a while people thought that Hadoop would be the platform but it never grew to serve a big enough group's needs back in 2013-ish and coupled with the headaches of configuration management containerization hit and it's now combined at the intersection of OS, virtualization, CI, and every other thing people run applications on in general. It may be the most disruptive thing to our industry overall since the advent of Linux in this respect (people thought virtualization was it for a while and it's shown to have been minor comparatively).

A lot of this stuff really is trying to address the core problem we've had for a long time that probably won't ever end - "works fine on my computer."

You could also say that "they won" and there's no where to go but down now.

Nothing can grow forever and things that try are known, in the biological domain, as cancers or infestations. There's quite a few corporations that "won" their market, so they're primed for a decline-- if you can still even call it that after enough people made more money than god and retired.

Correct, but in this particular context, the top level comment used "Facebook" to refer to the collection of products under the "Facebook" (meta) umbrella. So saying "No young people use Facebook" implies that no one uses instagram, whatsapp, etc. in this context :P

I see this a lot in other threads pertaining to Meta/FB but its all semantics at the end of the day. And even if they are referring to "Facebook" the singular product being irrelevant, its not really informative since at the end of the day Facebook is a B2B company that sells data and serves targeted ads. It doesn't matter if they get that information to you through oculus, facebook.com, instagram, or whatsapp, and as of now, their "core" products (fb.com, instagram, whatsapp, messenger, oculus) still cover a huge market of people they can glean data from.
I tried PostgREST for a small internal and it was a decent experience. I followed the following rules:

1- Don't expose your real database but expose a database consisting of view on your real database so you can refactor.

2- Wrap your bussines logic in stored proc to keep your sql readable

3- Use jwt for authentication

That said, I would not recommend it for a large scale application. I consider it, maybe wrongly, as the MSAccess of the backend.
My car manufacturer just posts an update every year that I can tranfer myself to the SD card that it reads off. Pretty nice.

> something that only recently Apple has brought back

In what form? Just curious.
Yeah I see what you're saying, that's a fair enough interpretation of it I just don't think it's the only one.

In fact almost nothing is serverless (well, the truth comes out! ;)) by that definition, since even Lambda has runtime versions to choose/upgrade, Managed-Acme has Acme versions, etc.

SES, SNS, SQS, etc. sure, but I suppose no compute, since you need libraries, and libraries have versions, and you can't have them (significantly/major versions) changing under your feet. (Or if they don't have versions they're of course destined to have known security holes.)

(Or it's not even about libraries if you want to say no you don't need libraries - it's just about having to interface with anything.)

Youtube ads are not a problem because of uBlock Origin / Newpipe etc... I have not seen an ad in Youtube in more than a decade.

This "[2] vs [3]" is a good find. I have several possible explanations. It could be the difference of 7 years between those posts. It could also be that Windows Handles can't be cleaned up in userspace. Not how malloc chunks up the "handles" (i.e. pages / regions) that it got from Windows. This is, AFAIK, different than HANDLE's that have to be requested from the system one-by-one and can't be chunked up. (Or am I wrong? I actually don't know a lot about how this works under the hood).
I tend to disagree. A lot of discovery happens on HN.

I don't think your passive-aggressive way of arguing is leading to a productive discussion..

It is true that many people have very limited awareness about options available to them, and thus select the only tool they know. It doesn't mean that their choice is best for their tasks. It is just lack of awareness.
A bunch has been written on this in the last month; check Patrick McKenzie (patio11), JP Koning, David Gerard, etc.

If they have to redeem to cover market cap loses, won’t they have to redeem the high quality backing first, meaning over time the percentage of tether that is sketchily back will increase?

This may be true; I certainly wouldn't want to be the last one still holding USDT when the music stops. OTOH, it is rumored that Tether creates USDT and loans them out, treating the loan itself as the "backing". What if they recalled and canceled these loans first?

Overall I think a smaller market cap of a sketchy asset is better and a gradual wind down is better than a crash but ultimately if the assets don't exist then someone will be taking a haircut.

> there's a clear incentive for the company to force employee separation in other ways?

Yes, however the law recognizes that creating a hostile environment to force people to quit is essentially firing them. Which means in that case you can quit, then move on to filing paperwork claiming it was due to the hostile environment, go before a government body, etc.
For games it seems the trend is toward Windows emulation (Wine, Proton, etc). I onder if and how much games test and cater for those, to validate on emulation platforms.

On one hand it's good thing in the big picture because it's a step in geting games to run sandboxed. For ARM Macs it might be not so good.
It's the thirty year anniversary of the Newton, a complete failure as a product. When it failed people said that people would never carry around computers, there was no need. They were bulky, a huge hassle and didn't do anything better than paper. All of this was true. Yet I don't think it is a coincidence that the iPhone came from the same company.

I don't like Facebook as a product. But I like that Meta is trying to make something work that isn't possible today, but may be possible in the future. It may not work out for them and their vision may never happen. But when someone makes fun of "strapping a phone to your face" I hear "get a horse". It doesn't take brains or vision to see the limitations of present technology.
I agree with you, but my 9 year old uses our Oculus more than her tablet. She plays games with her friends from school mostly, but also watches movies on Netflix, etc.

I don't get it, but maybe I don't have to.
Sorry, don't buy into this. The main difference to me is "the people" in the 90s were nerds. Now in the best business scenario for facebook its the opposite: the more nerdiness, the worse business outcome. They have to cater for folks looking for anything but.
My teen daughter has an IPad-Mini that she no longer uses, I use it as an e-reader mostly.
Something like supporting multiply operating systems also would cost a team of 2 a lot of time due to basic things.

You would need to test on all platforms, regularly. You would need to be able to debug on all platforms (setting up your ide multiply times). Your bug report has to be more precise.

You also need to either fully use an technology which in theory supports all platforms out of the box OR you would need to develop everything with either multiplatfrom libs or abstract it away and use different implementations underneath.

Alone accessing a file is different on all three OSes.

The best way for a very small team is to make it on Windows and just pay someone to migrate it later if it is already successful enough.
i'll checkout the game!

don't worry too much about making money, else you'll lose your focus

consider this: you produced an asset which is more valuable than just money: 1) IP for the game 2) knowledge from building the game 3) happiness from working on a product people really care about

nobody can take it away from you, nobody can reduce the worth of that asset

what you put into the game is still in the game

also a tip: if you have more ideas, do them now, because later you may not be able to
Ask HN: Those with micro SaaS, how did you get your idea?
I don’t know if there is an official definition of micro SaaS, maybe we can settle for less than 4K per month in revenue? Or do you have a better definition?

Anyway, how did you get started? Where did you find the idea?
My money is on this comment aging poorly.

Not because there shouldn't be legitimate concerns about VR, but because it's pointing to Facebook execution fail as the only thing that matters to the success of the metaverse, and it's expecting that the timeline should have been further along by now.

Facebook has always built mediocre products. Its strength is in acquiring or copying good ones, and then jacking the internal engineering on them up to 11.

Apple is seen as putting out good products, but they put out the Newton, ROKR, and even internally designed the iPad before they released the iPhone. There is time to build a good product, and chances are, Facebook won't be the one to build it.

And yet - first year iPhone sales and first year Quest 2 sales are somewhat on par. There's reason for optimism, or at least not heavy pessimism, yet.
