You’ve just conflated an interest rate tightening cycle with a market crash. The fed’s intent is not to crash the economy. While recessions tend to follow hike cycles, I believe that markets also tend to post (small) positive gains over the following two years. To me it seems a lot more likely that “the crash” was indeed blowing off froth, and that there may some recessionary period and growth will be subdued for a while (the actual tightening cycle), reflecting that we’re in neither 2000 or 2008. Either way, I agree that time will tell.

Nobody wants to be seen as the one complaining.

One of the funniest parts of our HR training at my employer was "If someone does something you don't like, first talk to them and tell them you don't like it."

What a joke. That would never work.
I can totally see the response:

"Oh! He's the guy that rang the other day letting me know I had something wrong with my computer. He helped me with it after I gave him my password."
Thanks, I actually tried to find the original source on Bloomberg but couldn't.
Freedom, respect, and the ability to understand things.

Freedom - I want a life where I am not burdened by pedantic obligations. I want to do what I want, whenever I want, on a whim. Easier said than done, but it seems being a software engineer gets me closer to this ideal than any other job.

Respect - I want people to treat me with respect and just be decent to me.

Understanding - I get a lot of joy out of understanding things. I get goosebumps, the warm fuzzy feeling, shivers down my spine, etc. This can come from work (recently happened while debugging and realizing a huge problem), or reading, or conversation, or even from video games (Outer Wilds recently scratched this itch for me in an awesome way).

If I can live a relatively free life where people are decent to me and I can continue to build my understanding of life, society, and the universe, I'll be very happy.

Unfortunately the "respect" portion is probably the toughest for me, as to get respect from certain folks you have to have external markers of success, like good job, house, pretty wife, kids, etc. I personally don't care too much about any of that shit, but it really gets me down when people are assholes to me, so I do strive to do well in these areas, if only to shut the haters up. I'm also only 25 so who the hell knows what I'll think even a few years from now.

I'm very confused. Rust is mainstream? C, C++, Java, C#, Python, JavaScript are all what I would call mainstream. Rust is not a language that comes to mind at all.
What you ever see 'hackers'?

The 90s were cavalier. We're talking over 20 years ago, different time.

The big difference was that people were... for lack of a better designation, intensely naive back then. There just wasn't a lot of understanding around consequences.
Out of curiosity, since this post discusses syntax highlighting on the web and supports code syntax highlighting, what blog engine does this site use? Does it support giving headings their own id (I use headings and like being able to refer to them with anchor URLs, but I didn't see any headings on the entire blog)?
Sounds like she is actually trying to drag Pichai into a caste fight. Par for the course.
The credit card fraud is to me the worst, as any random number might actually match an existing one, and back in the days I wouldn't expect much scrutiny from the card processor. That's then up to the poor soul who's number was used to go through paperwork purgatory to dispute the charge.

Orherwise ISPs are the poster child of monopoly giants that had to be broken down kicking and screaming, but kept screwing the customer over and over because there is litteraly nothing that we can do about it (voting won't help). They can burn in hell I wouldn't care.
Yeah a red light would flash over the booth and the door would shut closed, hence having to put your foot in there. Alot of people buying and using these cards were like 'bullshit!' but this guy who told me about this figured to err on the side of caution anyways and ended up having to comically escape the situation with all these people looking at him.

This was like 5 years before my own time in Japan but pretty hilarious nonetheless
Also competition with keeping your existing car. People won't pay just anything.
Oh, you can owe money you personally guaranteed. You're also jointly and severally liable in a general partnership. LLCs are nice in that you can have the tax benefits of a partnership and the liability protection of a corporation if set up correctly. This 'corporate veil's only puts the value of the money that you put into the corporation at risk i.e. the value of your investment. However, certain actions could 'pierce' the corporate veil if the LLC is setup incorrectly or if certain conditions are met.

From an accounting standpoint, GAAP doesn't much care if you're a private company with shareholders or if you're a private company with employee-owners. There are tax nuances and accounting for equity differences, but the books are mostly the same animal.
The article mentions:

Why not, whats the problem (apart from some sort of philosophical idea of "beautiful api")?
Building and selling AI software to do this is also a targeted and conscious effort.

My view is this kind of thing is inevitable and pervasive because there’s a lot of internal risks that companies and governments are worried about. The only solution is to be so valuable that it doesn’t matter.
Yes, thanks for pointing that out.
No, the fact that it doesn't have any dependencies is more of a personal challenge than anything. I don't have any main competitive goal in mind other than to make something that feels nice to use.
The site is down here as well. I tried my VPN from a few locations and they're not working either.

The sacred thread is exclusive to Brahmins and a distinct caste marker.

Non-Brahmin Hindus are not allowed to wear the sacred thread.

Turbans and burqa do not have such intra-religious restriction.

Comparing the sacred thread to turbans/ burqas is a false comparison.
The logic is that if your house can only comfortable accommodate 4 people then it makes sense to say no to the 100 people who also wants to move in. Resources are not infinite. The same goes with culture. The more people you add to a culture who doesn't care about or understand your culture, the more your culture will be destroyed.
Is there really that much service revenue for modern ICE cars that isn't stuff BEV cars need too? Modern powertrains are pretty bulletproof, 10k oil changes and 30k air filters will get you to 100k miles. "Tune ups" aren't really a thing anymore either, especially in the first 100k.

Brakes? Maybe you're cutting out one or two pad slaps in that 100k.

Oil changes? Yeah, you've eliminated those, the lowest margin service dealers do.

Suspension components, air conditioning, etc? No difference, and that stuff shouldn't need to be touched in the first 100k anyway.

Tires? BEVs eat tires.

Still need wiper blades, cabin filters, etc. But those aren't big items either way.

I guess I just don't see where all this recurring service revenue comes from. Cars just don't break until they're 10-15 years old. Maybe some cars are really that unreliable still?
I get wanting to move off these fuels for the big stuff, but surely there can still be some room for novelty. Korean BBQ is fantastic.
This might be right, but I'm not so sure. Public perception is that dealerships are adverse to customers because of information asymmetry + price haggling, and that online sales will hurt them -- but in many conversations with multiple different car industry insiders, they all say that dealers make almost no money car sales, and instead make almost all of it on financing, service and parts. That you can almost model the car dealing parts of a dealership as lead gen for the service desk / finance desk.

I don't know if that's right (anybody with more info care to comment?), but it's at least enough to give me pause on the "dealers will hate nonnegotiable pricing" claim.
In many other parts of the world,
even North America, the MSRP is the price of the car. There is no negotiating (at least, not upwards, and definitely not usually).

I don't understand why this is newsworthy? I bought a non-EV in the last decade by putting the order together online on the manufacturer's national website, then processing it through a dealership.

Buying a car in the US was so unnecessarily stupid because of all the haggling and pussyfooting around what the damn thing is actually going to cost.
Of course it is. But this is how it has always been even without this technology. The cost is lowering because the demand for is pervasive.
There are people who are both arrogant and intelligent.
I agree. Also add customer support / customer success to that list of sources and marketing / SEO.

Really if you are working for the company in any capacity your inout should be taken into consulting.

However it is up to executives to have a strategy, which should also take into account all those sources.
A decent service and warranty experience is the point a lot of people make, and this has obviously become less important with EVs which require less ongoing maintenance.

Beyond that dealers provide distributed and localized inventory management. Modern car plants basically have to run at full capacity year round, but sales are much more seasonal and unpredictable given effects of gas prices and other economic factors, many of which can be regional. The dealers find underused land all over the country and have huge lots that allow for cars to be delivered on a consistent year round basis which provides efficiencies in the logistics operations since the trucking, shipping, and rail contracts can have permanent workforces and long term predictable contracts. When inventories pile up for specific models the manufacturer can provide incentives and dealers can innovate and adapt to take advantage of these using local knowledge of the conditions in their community in a way that manufacturers would have a harder time doing. Dealers can finance their floorplan using independent and local sources of capital for inventory and buildings which allows the manufacturers to extend operations without taking on additional debt, or putting their own finances at risk.

Some of these factors played more of a role in the past, when new car companies were building out their dealership networks and benefitted more from offloading risks to dealer partners. Tesla was able to innovate with their small showrooms in malls largely because they went for a long time with only a small handful of models, and because the buzz around the brand and vision meant that there has always been a waiting line (still the case), so they’ve never tried to compete for the “car broke down, need something new this week” market, which has had no choice but to head to well-inventoried lot.
You don't need to buy tires at the dealership, and in fact most people don't.
> words can have different meanings in different contexts

I agree. It's just convenient that fundamentals, by this definition, always equals the market price. At which point one asks why there are two words other than for misdirection.
More like it's quite easy if you dramatically overpay.

Finding great people at a price you can afford is the usual aim - which doesn't mean underpaying but does mean that you can't just raise the price until the talent busts down your door.
interesting take, but I don't see any problems here. Conspiratorial hallmarks? I'll try to defend. My comments about ≥80% market etc. are common knowledge and the conclusion is consistent. And my post prior to that is about my observations from a few years ago. Whatever you think of that claim, it is consistent with what is widely known (or easily inferred) about Google: they have top-tier engineering talent that has incentive to get tidy searches sent to them by dynamically generating "is similar to" canonical and trending matches, and aggressively pushing those matches to users before hitting submit. My claim is simply that I noticed Google succeeded in building a better version of this than their competition. I don't see anything suspect there.

The interesting artifact of this is that the dominant set of queries becomes a very small proper subset of natural/organic queries.
> Enforcing correctness at compile time is not the only way to insure correctness.

> some prefer thinking before coding and prefer solving design puzzles

Yeah, you just need to guarantee that person working on it, considered all edge cases, had uninterrupted time to think, thought about how the edge cases interact, didn't make a single mistake, wasn't sleepy, under influence of substances, and perfectly wrote it into the program without a single semantic error (off by 1).

Easy.

That's why I code in Malbolge Lisp CodeGen that outputs Brainfuck.
Over some time period if corporate earnings growth continues to exceed GDP growth then they will eventually consume all of GDP leaving nothing for taxes or labor. This creates a hard upper bound on returns.

GDP growth is tied to working age populations growth and productivity growth which are very long term, predicable trends.

Long term returns on stocks will need to return to GDP (or less) but that could be tomorrow or 100 years from now. While I can be certain that it will happen if it happens and I’m right in 100 years is matters little as I’m dead and it does me no good.
I don’t have any clips off hand and really don’t want to subject myself to an unnecessary dose of US news media haha… You are right about it not normally being played behind the in studio talent, but you can pretty quickly notice the semi-permanent background track once you start using paying attention to how they construct a “packaged segment” that has been pre-recorded and pre-produced, ready to cut to from the in studio talent.

It’s way more obvious when it’s a wedge issue like gun rights, drug legalisation, abortion, or anything political.
> which, I assure you, I have audited extensively;

For which I call BS.

Did you audit your OS code, drivers code and your laptop's hardware? We both know you didn't. Why do you make such an obvious lie?

If it's magically not a lie, how exactly did you do it and how long did it take?
Depends on the industry. At seed in computational biotech, we had a lean team. After validating our technology as much as we could, we played a lottery on AWS to get compounds. These workloads handled tens if not hundreds of billions of rows of data and part of the selling point was the parallelizibility, so we got badass instances to show we could turnaround results in minutes whereas other companies took months.

We got a 100k and 150k AWS grant from AWS, and that was a big chunk of the computational budget. We were small, but the nature of HPC and our confidence in our algorithm meant we burnt the war chest on a YOLO and raised Series A.
Funny, most companies don't actually hire people from the bay area
I feel much the same although my team members are on the same level.

But I look at my desk job and think that even if I am ageist-outed from my job when I am 50 at least I won't have years of physiological damage that actual blue collar workers and tradies can accumulate.
Back then it was a giant pain in the ass.

These days isn't it a lot easier to deal with that? You basically just get on the phone with equifax/transunion and upload some documents.

Guess that trial and error had to start somewhere.

Also I really wonder what the mathematical chances are that the card actually matched with someone back then. Like obviously a collision risk here but how large?

> I wear the thread the same reason

It doesn't matter what reasons you have. What matters is the consequence of your behavior, namely, it is visible difference between castes, which makes discrimination easier and avoiding discrimination harder.

All previous fights against discrimination shared one phenomenon: priveledged start to whine that they are reverse-discriminated. And at some point they probably are discriminated against. But the funny thing, that without their cooperation in a fight against discrimination there are no other way to win but to discriminate in reverse.

And your comment show that you are not concerned in a slightest about discrimination. Tradition is more important to you than people.
Excluding the most expensive wear items is misleading though.

Yeah this also struck me as quite strange. Not that he did it, but that he was so cavalier about it, even after all this time.
I enjoyed learning about BBS door games.
TLDR: it’s way too early to start comparing this to 2000/2008.

You’re right that stuff is slow. We’re so new into this round of the market that it’s best to be humble.

We haven’t yet seen anything like assets becoming illiquid/worthless and threatening leveraged asset values at a market wide level. Ie something like a domino effect. We’re seeing more of a “marginal effect” where at higher interest rates cap rates are trending opposite of the past many years. This should stay on the business development side so long as “not enough” leverage was set with an adjustable rate. That’s what hurt a lot of assets and people in 2008-mortgage rates went up on the ARMs and thus monthly mortgage payments.

Having said that, 2000 and 2008 had market driven revisions downward. 2008 was particularly bad because suddenly highly leveraged assets had to be marked to market. So many assets had their values pinned to irrational assumptions of the underlying assets that many trillions of debt were headed for default.

As an aside, the economy is in a fragile place. Meat processing and infant formula got concentrated so far that shutting down individual plants takes out the supply of those goods. The economy right now is just about dominated by market concentration-and unions are at historical lows of importance. That is a factor that leads to inefficiency (at best) and fragility/deadweight at worst. Look at how long Intel told people they didn’t need multiple cores.

Edit-A targeted attack on TSMC could wipe out the worlds semi supply and send us back decades. Quarantines and lockdowns can wipe out the worlds TP supply, cellphones, everything produced almost exclusively in China.

Exit2-the attacks on Ukraine either have stopped the (vast majority of the?) worlds supply of neon gas. Etc

- I don't have enough disposable income and disposable time to self host and then keep up to date some flavour of messaging protocol server.

- Everyone's understanding of this issue is different. It's hard enough to convince technical people to use matrix/element vs signal, vs what ever they already have installed. Non-Technical people will either just ignore you or trust you entirely, I'm not sure which is worse.

- When something goes wrong I have to fix it myself. now I'm 24/7 on call.

- Even If I have knowledge enough to run the infrastructure myself, to compile clients and servers myself, to register domains etc.. I cant understand the source code to identify every possible un-trust worthy thing. even if I could, system security is not just about the code.. what is a trusted architecture to run it on?

It just isn't in any way, by any stretch of the imagination, feasible to self host any messaging service myself, that I want to use with the aim of talking to a wide range of people, from all parts of my life.. When I just want to chat with my work colleagues and arrange to go to drinks, or about their break up, or some other company or whatever..
I rewatched all 3 recently, and I have to say I don't remember why I and everyone else disliked the sequels so much. They are exciting, and tell a good story. I haven't watched the new one yet.
Re: bestbuy “showrooming” issues, I think they actually figured out how to make it a value driver for them, whereas it killed others. It’s a great place to look at products, and they price match so you can walk out the door with the product instead of waiting.
I'm not suggesting it's okay to be an asshole just because you see some other person somewhere being an asshole. If their behavior happens in their bubble and you live in your own, disconnected, then you're free to do whatever you want.

I try to be good. I'd like that from others.

But when your bubbles intersect and you're in the same game, competing directly, other people's ethics absolutely do constrain the ethics you can choose for yourself while remaining effective. I'm not saying you should sacrifice your principles; I'm saying you should mind the difference between sticking to your principles and winning, accept they aren't the same, and not insist they always are or would be "if everyone just." Because everyone won't just.

Your principles may make you better as a person in some way (they really might!) but that doesn't mean they'll make you win. Not admitting this will make you less effective at defending them.

Maybe I'm getting away from the point of the thread, I don't know.

I guess in my analogy the war has come to the army of swords, like it or not. Team Machine Gun could have chosen to be nice. They didn't, so what now? The answer cannot be, "Well, then they're bad." It doesn't matter if they're good or bad: they're here. They don't care what you think. So what do you do?
> Eh, the German government will pay for abortions in first trimester, rape/abuse, or an important danger to mother's mental/physical health, or if the fetus is disabled (Yay Nazis?).

The Mississippi law that supposedly violates Roe also allows abortions after 15 weeks in case of danger to the mother’s health and fetal abnormalities. And unlike in Germany, there is no mandatory counseling or waiting period. The Mississippi law is more similar to the German law than different—certainly much closer to each other than to Roe, which requires legalized elective abortions for two months after nearly all other developed countries ban the practice.

I’ll certainly grant you that, when it comes to the government paying for things, CNN is definitely in the center. But that’s just one of many issues.
I don't think you need to work at Microsoft to be nervous about that. I've had recruiters offer to sell me information on who here is communicating with them on LinkedIn, without even being in a management or hiring position myself.
