> that would remove a big part of the gameplay and challenge

That's subjective! Personally, having the biters enabled removes a big part of the gameplay for me as suddenly I need to focus on being able to defend myself, while for me that game is about building as effective factory as possible.

No so. There are countless thousands of retired people who are engrossed in their hobbies and completely happy.
Yeah.. in a world with infinite time and no compromise, documentations + diagrams are nice. In practice, working on this means not working on something else, potentially more important. Trade-offs are hard and not fun :(
This is easy to say, but it is harder to convince others without showing us your data. Even a small table with anonymized company names and a few columns assessing their security foibles and work life balance would go a long way.

I understand most people will say "this is too much work". The problem is that it is all too easy for someone to say "in my experience, X is correlated with Y" ... but that isn't very believable if the observer didn't even write things down.

I don't like asking for everything to be quantified, but it does seem in this case you probably have the data in your head and just need a nudge to write it down.
I suspect one reason the browsing and search experience is so slow and horrible on these services is that they don't want to present straightforward lists that would allow people to scrape their catalogs and put them head to head. Mainstream tech reviewers seem to have extremely mainstream tastes and insist that you won't notice the difference between the catalogs of YouTube Music (the smallest major service with about 60 million songs) and Apple Music (the largest with about 90 million). Even I noticed YouTube was missing a bunch of my favorite albums and I don't think any of my favorites could be called "obscure" unless you have a really liberal definition of that word. It would be interesting to see a list of the most popular artists missing from each service, or a venn diagram of record labels and rights groups, but I haven't found anything more detailed than isolated anecdotes and media coverage of individual artists trying to push Tidal and/or getting mad at Spotify.
I'm not saying the current source of purpose is the best source. I'm just saying life is currently organized around working for most people. Something (or many things) will need to replace that structure.
On the manual there was a adress printed to get the sources. So I mail them. Was about 5 years ago. Received a hand burned disk with a printed label. Nothing special on it just the usual suspects including Apache.
Start-ups who don’t solve these issues will see more knowledgeable potential employees walk away. The fact is start-ups pay a fair bit below the market wage and people have every right to know what sort of equity you’re getting in exchange for that. If a start-up is unwilling or unable to answer fairly basic questions about how their equity works it’s totally reasonable to not work for them.
> I have no idea if Gimp got better because I gave up on it with enough good alternatives.

It didn't. I upgraded back to 2.6 and stopped updating when 2.8 broke saving files, and going by hearsay, it's continued to get worse since.
> We consistently find that the US spies and abuses its power more than anyone imagines.

Spies, not law enforcement. Spies spy. It's kinda in their job description.
This is exactly how Google operates yet many folks seem to define / consider that as “selling the data”.

It’s really about “leveraging access to / monetizing the data”.

The point is that by paying for EDDM, Brave is funding and supporting that financial model (targeted advertising) which many folks who use Brave want to eliminate.

So some amount of annoyance expressed by their users makes sense to me.
I’ve been here in Columbus since 2008 and it is nice place to raise a family. It’s a nice cost of living and us plenty to do. I’m on 5 acres just 20 minutes outside of the city. It’s a wonderful environment where I WFH from an RV that I purchased in 2014 that was sitting idle outside of my house pretty much all year. I got into adult ice hockey in 2015 which supplements some competitive activity as well as cardio. I am afraid that with the new chip plant that Intel is dropping here that cost of living will be driven up. I’m sure there will be many more things to do as this place fills out even more. There are plenty of corn fields that are being developed into housing, retail shopping and commercial distribution centers.

Is the 73% inflation number true? Experts say it is more like 156%.

"The Inflation Research Group (ENAG), an independent group of academics and economists working on key data that map economic performance, however, on Thursday said the country’s month-on-month consumer prices rose 8.68 percent, while annual inflation jumped to 156.86 percent in April."

Journy does not explicitly tell a story, but it allows you to try to figure it out for yourself.

What is the character? What is it doing? What are those? During gameplay, you might reason to possible answers.
that's my quote, just want to add a few notes because I originally typed that out quickly in a comment on twitter and didn't expect it to get traction

1. At the time iirc maybe 60% of people meant something like "that's a reasonable symptom to run into from EA thinking, I've had something like it too, it's hard to fix even if you know it's not ideal". Although maybe 20% of people did think it actually just made sense as a way to operate and didn't see it as a big problem

2. I agree it's much less common now. I think it's possibly because EA has shifted more towards longtermism. Although around 2016 I switched to working on AGI safety which is very longtermist, so it's possible that's my local bias

3. Luckily the symptom was short lived, maybe ~4-6 weeks in total while I was also experiencing startup founder anxiety separate of EA. I consider myself maybe a little hurt by EA, but not that traumatized, and I still think it has lots of merits even if I don't identify as an "EA person" anymore
Seems that would put a lot of power in the hands of whoever controls the automation.
So they spent over a year of revenue on a local marketing stint. That’s pretty far past the reasonable line to me.

Now maybe it was a good bullish move, but the article’s point is that so far this has never been the case for every other company that pulled something similar off.

A lot of this information is also available in the company’s Articles of Incorporation. Can’t hurt to ask in the interview, but it’s probably a good idea to pull the actual filing anywhere you’re seriously considering an offer (if it’s a Delaware corporation, you have to pay a registered agent to get these documents, it’s usually $50-$100.)

Typically includes things like total outstanding shares, conversion price of the various preferred rounds, liquidation preference for the preferred shares, etc. The delta between the most recent preferred round and the 409a is the best approximation of the actual value of the equity at the time of the grant.
It's a tradeoff in the end, because the current generation of renewable energy is so much more expensive and involved than the equivalent in a nuclear energy plant.

I mean in my country, the energy grid is at capacity due to increases in demand AND production. It's very attractive to get solar panels installed on your house, but the grid cannot handle the influx of new production.

Whereas attaching a new nuclear plant to the main grid would be less of a headache.

> Please ama if inspired or investigating France !

I'm inspired, and I'd love to hear more. I'm curious about the prices: I spent a while just now looking up real estate and saw land ranging from 3,000eur (in accessible, no road) to 80,000eur (inaccessible, no road, but near a village) for about the same area, a hectare or so, in the east near the Alps. I don't know enough about France to know if I was looking in a particularly representative area: for interest, my goal would be to live in a stone house (maybe one I built myself) in deeply mid-European forest (oaks, etc) near hilled mixed forest/farmland or near forested mountains.

I'm looking at Estonia for the same reason (plus I live there already.) Few hills and no mountains, and a long winter, but it is a very forested country, and very high-tech.

This is an interesting read with concepts to keep in mind when designing some application. I've worked with open data, ontologies and semantic web, and I'm afraid a lot of the difficulty is in cross-cutting concerns, interoperability and boundaries. As some of the slides mention, there is no easy sharing of data between blocks, which is essential for flow. Providers of said blocks will not easily open their gardens to the outside world because of business lock-in or because it's just too difficult security-wise. There will be irreconcilable differences between a conceptual Meeting schema and the actual data structure provided by a block provider's API. And the idea of creating thousands of block types will make things so complex you will basically end up with what we already have, i.e. programming with classes, conditionals and all sorts of inheritance.

I understand the vision, and I think it's good to keep in mind when implementing software, but as a seasoned coder and security person, I see a lot of technical and (anti)competitive hurdles. In practice, the market does not want interoperability.

Just yesterday I commented to a clerk at a used bookstore that hers was probably the only one in the U.S. with 3 Turbo Pascal books.
Yeah, I worry about this a lot, honestly. Perhaps it's my biggest mental block for taking the plunge and changing careers into software.

I'm a senior engineer, but doing something very niche that is only software-adjacent. There's definitely a very real feeling of being trapped. If I transition, it seems I would almost necessarily take a pay cut, even though I might enjoy the new work more.

Possibly it would work out better financially in the long run, but it's very hard to get over that initial financial activation energy.

The only saving grace is that software salaries are so ludicrous that if I do transition, the cut to joining at a junior level would probably not be too bad for me. I can only imagine what it's like for folks going the other direction.
This is indeed true, 50% mark is not exactly like 50% GPA but affirmitive action in India is so f*ed up. I know very bright people kicked out and come to USA for BS in reputed colleges. This is reason, India not able to progress as fast as China or USA

Depends on who _is_ the government.

Once you have the data exactly on how unhealthy someone’s choices are, you can lean their behavior towards better behavior(according to those that want government to help people behave better).
This is why behaviour modifications were and are suggested during epidemics: “The virus dissemination observed in our case study may indicate that patients with an impaired immune system have a decreased ability to eliminate the virus.”

Those with a weakened or nonexistent immune system are always at risk. Need an immune system to utilize a vaccine. They could be elderly, HIV-positive, transplant patients, ,,, All we can do to protect them is reduce the chance they catch the thing. And buy time until some treatment presents itself.

Oh, and it’s good to avoid creating people who get infected for a long period of time. Increases the evolutionary pressure on the disease, which hurts everybody.
There's no grounds for a lawsuit for the at-will employment contracts you typically see with West Coast tech companies.
My issue is really the lack of progress with and utilisation of Nuclear over the last 40-50 years. In my opinion the anti nuclear movement resulted in extending the time we continued to burn coal. Quite right, at the moment the larger impact would be with renewables. However my original comment was not only in reference to decisions we are making now but also those of the last 50 years. If we had concentrated on using Nuclear, and not succumbed to the fear about it, we would be in a much stronger position now than we are.
ROFL.

....because it exposes the emotional core of how fundamentally broken the philosophy of those who object to it.
The mechanism by which CO2 raises the steady-state temperature of the atmosphere is well understood, and it is not because of the awesome power of CO2, it is because the Sun is incredibly energetic.

By contrast, there is no known way that wind power extraction, which is currently < 1TW globally, could possibly be destabilizing the energy system of the rotation of the Earth (which is what causes wind). That system contains ten billion times more kinetic energy than we remove from it annually.

The amount of kinetic energy the moon removes from the Earth's rotational kinetic energy every year is larger, and has been going on for a long, long time, so if it was going to cause fire weather that would already have been a long-standing problem.

In short, the amount of CO2 that humans have dumped into the atmosphere in the last 200 years is comparable to the amount that was in there to begin with. It can't be ignored. But the amount of energy we remove from the wind is nine or ten orders of magnitude smaller than the total amount that exists, and therefore it can be ignored.
Ask HN: Why do animated shows tend to have so many musical numbers?
I'm a big fan of shows like Bob's Burgers, the early years of the Simpsons, etc. and I've been rewatching Bob's Burgers in preparation of seeing the movie and noticed that there are a ton of musical numbers. It seems something that happens genre-wide but I don't see it in other tv categories. Any idea why it's so prevalent in animated shows like those?

> But the key monopolies involved in blocking small modular homes are the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). They have successfully squashed the emergence of these factory houses.

Is factory-built housing common in other countries?

If not, then it would strongly suggest there are other reasons than federal control.

Wikipedia at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_building#Market_accept... says "In the UK and Australia, modular homes have become accepted in some regional areas; however, they are not commonly built in major cities. Modular homes are becoming increasingly common in Japanese urban areas ...", suggesting it isn't all that common world-wide.
And yet the person he was replying to had just as little data, full of "in my experience, X, Y".

You're using very poor arguments. A lot of whataboutism.

A meteor is coming to destroy the entire world. Do you sit around and wonder, "Is spending money on this really in the best interest of our shareholders for this quarter?"
You’re thinking of blockchains, but I’m thinking more broadly of p2p systems. But even blockchains have the potential to satisfy the ideal that I have in mind. For example, I’ve often thought web2 SSO (sign in with Google/Facebook/etc) to be ripe for disruption by some open standard for wallet based authentication. I think I’ve even seen a few projects that come close to this.

At any rate, this is the part I find interesting. The money games are a huge distraction IMHO.

I have quite a few disorganized thoughts on the subject… maybe I should write an essay…
> only to be told by the recruiter that the stock was about to split, so I'd actually get twice as much (this is absolute nonsense, to be clear, and a huge red flag).

It’s nonsense, but coming from a recruiter, it’s not a red flag to me. If I red flagged every recruiter who didn’t quite know how the world worked, I don’t how many I’d have left. If a founder or a CFO tells you that, it’s a red flag; if it’s a recruiter, they’re still wrong, but I don’t count it nearly as sharply against the company.

It should be noted that the Tivoization clause in GPLv3 is pretty narrow. It only covers software that you acquire in the same transaction in which you acquire the locked down hardware.

> holding my staked Ethereum hostage with no ability to withdraw.

I mean, it's been pretty explicitly warned that you can't withdraw until the Eth2 merge. This is not a Coinbase issue, this is a staking issue.
> You also don't "pay" 25k, it's more like your GmbH has to have constant reserves of 25k used in case of an insolvency.

It’s not even that. The GmbH can use that money to buy things or pay for services and entirely use them. There’s no guarantee that there’s any money at all in a GmbH - the only guarantee you have is that someone invested 25k at some point in the past.
Yes! This is not a novel idea - it's how the US got its 4th amendment, prohibiting unreasonable search. Government power should not be unlimited, because it risks slipping into tyranny.

This is an oversimplified conclusion.

FTA:

> The practical consequences of the theorem are debatable: Arrow has said "Most systems are not going to work badly all of the time. All I proved is that all can work badly at times

Followed by:

> Although Arrow's theorem is a mathematical result, it is often expressed in a non-mathematical way with a statement such as no voting method is fair, every ranked voting method is flawed, or the only voting method that isn't flawed is a dictatorship.[11] These statements are simplifications of Arrow's result which are not universally considered to be true.

Bottom line - this seems interesting, but is hardly as simple as "all ranked voting systems can be gamed".

'you can go remote but you'll get a paycut if you do'

No, it was 'you get a paycut if you move out of where you were working, into a lower-wage region.' Most (but not all) remote jobs in remote-only, or remote-first firms will cut your pay if you do that.

When the pandemic started, and the office closed, a few people certainly did just that (with, or without notifying their employer), but the firm never made any promises that this sort of thing will work out.

> then it was 'back to the office by spring 2022'

In some orgs/teams, yes. In others, no. In Meta/Google, this is not a corporate-wide mandate, this is up to your director to make a decision on. Mine has no problem with remote, and we've hired two 100% remote people in the past 6 months.
