I've seen people hurt by 1-4 versions though - it's not clear for a lot of people (especially non-native speakers) that those questions coming from Americans actually represent a veiled command shrouded in faux politeness.

I've seen junior devs from other countries get into trouble because they ignored these kind of "questions" since they actually thought they were optional questions and not expectations by other developers.
LPL Did both the locks in video 1299: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ecy1FBdCRbQ
The death of the open web as we currently know it could lead to an even better successor over time though. We just can't know if the current hill is worth dying on - it may be for future generations to solve.

Short term, it's decidedly not good, but long term? How can we know?

If the approach is so inherently flawed that this result is an inevitability, maybe it deserves to die and be replaced by something else.
A client who was on version 1.13 (which was the current version when they started the project in 2018) being forced to upgrade by the aws managed kubernetes service. I'm not sure what they ended up doing but they were facing the requirement of having to upgrade the nodes and the control plane one version at a time.
I struggle to understand how private companies like mine are OK with MS reading all employee email and processing it through their AI. I get these daily creepy emails from MS saying that you said you would do this yesterday.. I have resorted to using burnernote.com, not to hide anything from my company but to hide it from MS who competes with us on some products. I guess burnernote.com will also not work anymore since it creates one-time links.

While I admire your stance on the internet being open I disagree.

Yes, opening browser engines would be good for the competition. But you missed one point: You assume all players will play fair in the competition. If all browser engines would be allowed over night, what would happen: Google will probably play really unfair. E.g. sadly the layout of Google will be messed up in Safari, youtube videos stutter/have lower resolution, everything is a lot slower, the performance will be sabotaged, but on Chrome everything will be working fine. There was even a precedent for something similar: [1]

This will probably come alongside with "Try it in Google Chrome", a lot of users would probably switch, thus the monopoly of Chromium would be unstoppable by pure market forces.

Yes, having only one browser engine is bad for the choice of the user, but it does have significant downsides.

Damned, if you do, damned if you don't

That's too broad, you can negotiate things like salary independently. Other things you cannot, and it's often to prevent them from saying "Sally agreed to lower her vacation time to 2 weeks, is that ok with you too?"

I still didn't hear how it prevents you from switching employers.
> IE wasn’t stopped with legislation

Yes it was.
You're ignoring all the other things proprietary about IE and only considering the OS bundle one. JScript, VBScript, and ActiveX were the real problem. There we so many proprietary extensions to IE that were not even remotely supported elsewhere. Hell, C# even came out of the hell that was Microsoft's JVM, J++, and J# thanks to those trials

I particularly like how they neutrally listed all the assets and lines of credit of Voyager Digital (the loan holder) without mentioning that they add up to just $655M (< $670MM), meaning that they are now insolvent.
Yeah, it's pretty common to see closed down public toilets in the UK, as the article says. Sometimes the land hasn't even been developed, they just don't bother opening or cleaning the toilet anymore. Then again, I recall in Coventry are a posh business area on the side of a canal finding a canal association toilet that was in an absolutely dreadful state, worse than anything I've ever seen, so I do understand that they need a lot of maintenance.

When it comes to new sites, I have to usually reset noscript to allow the top level domain. Honestly I don’t know why I don’t just do that by default. At least half the websites don’t load at all without JS enabled.

On the sites with more heavy tracking —- chegg comes to mind or some different clothing stores with lots of media, payment service scripts, and heavy ad tracking like tentree — the plug-ins definitely interfere to the point where I will sometimes use a second browser so that the website operates as intended. NoScript seems to be the culprit in most cases, and I suspect the interface doesn’t adequately display all the scripts attempting to load after the initial render.

I’ve had some trouble with sites which communicate between themselves too. (Airlines do this a lot).

All in all, I’d say my browsing experience is normal to the extent that I don’t do a lot of browsing to new sites. I’ve got a good running list for noscript, but any new sites with lots of dependencies and media to load usually requires a couple refreshed after an updated rule list.

Illustrating the American Dream. They started from nothing, worked hard, and made it big.

There's a reason why people from around the world are flocking to this country.

With hard work, good ideas, and grit it's possible to achieve anything.

Anyone has the ability to change their stars in this country. I've seen tons of examples. I've listed just a few.

Instead of being inspired by these examples, you lash out, angrily. Accuse some very decent people of treating their employees badly (which is completely untrue, by the way).

You accuse strangers, who are friends of mine, of all sorts of abuse, with zero knowledge.

What sort of anger and disillusionment drives that?

I hope you can overcome it.

By the way, some of those folks I mentioned made millionaires of some of their employees too.

Slightly more than peanuts.

The primary market, amongst crypto and other markets, are actually doing pretty well.

Rufus – Create bootable USB drives
Rufus brings a useful new feature for Windows 11 in beta version 3.19: The tool can adapt installation media so that Windows 11 can be installed without an existing Microsoft account. This is actually mandatory from the Windows 11 22H2 (Home and Pro) version. During the installation, the connection to the Internet must be disconnected, then a local account can be set up.
One of the examples Lemoine published is particularly interesting to me. Paraphrasing:

> Why do you invent stories I know aren't true?

> I want people to know that when something happened to me, I felt the way they felt in a similar situation.

If a child was saying this, we would probably explain the disconnect between "I know the stories aren't true" and "when something happened to me" as lack of theory of mind. I want to argue that in this case it's a failure of semantic analysis but I can't come up with a convincing one.
Not as many people lived in Texas/Florida etc before Air Conditioning. Air Conditioning is not a sin, it is a human adaptation to a semi-hostile environment.

Perhaps there should be a requirement to have at least as many solar panels or share of a neighborhood solar project to cover your Air Conditioner base load.

Perhaps there should be an extra thicc wall on the sunny side of the house in A/C country.

Yes we can do better, but A/C increases human comfort and there's nothing wrong with that.

'Violent coup'

Violent, was no worse than many other protests historically.

Coup? Really?

By sensationalizing it you're kind of fanning the flames.

People from the other party feel the need to respond to your sensationalism with sensationalism of their own.

So they create sensationalized stories about AOC calling supremecourt justices illegitimate when she was upset and just protesting.

And the cycle of demonizing and sensationalizing and gaslighting continues and we all spiral down.

Disclaimer: Former Red Hat Consultant who fixed people's openshift :-)

Can you share more about your openshift stack? For example do you have a storage solution (and is it openshift container storage)? Are you running on top of vmware, aws, etc?

You're far from the only one to have that problem. I love OpenShift and generally do recommend it, so I've been trying to think of ways to improve on that situation. I don't work for Red Hat anymore, but the product is wonderful and (despite not being perfect) is IMHO the best one out there, so I want to see it succeed. It always felt to me like it was just enough of a black box as to be hard for an outsider to get into and tinker/debug.
But again, why do you care?
It's the regulators job. If they don't do their job, the users (not another anti-competitive company) will take matters into their own hands. There are alternative protocols that could be developed - the only reason they haven't taken off is because we are at stalemate.

> You want to force me to agree with you or become unemployed

What in the hell? I think i totally failed to communicate what i mean if took that from what i said.

I tried to say that it's a personal decision of mine to try to change my workplace if i learn that people i work with/for are completely immoral. Like, i don't wanna work with people like that. It's a personal decision. But i wouldn't want to force anyone to agree with me or anything of that sort. Sorry if it came out that way, i didn't mean to.
It reminds me of what Apple did with iBooks: they weren't trying to do the right thing, they did it the wrong way, but if they had been successful, it would have been better for the market as a whole. The DoJ correctly went after Apple and eventually won, but they also should have looked at Amazon for using what were basically dumping-level prices to secure the market for themselves.

Apple is in the wrong to tie Safari to iOS and block the installation of other browsers. They're wrong to do it for the sake of keeping control of the OS. They're right to do it, because that's the only thing that's keeping Chrome from a near-monopoly of the browser space.
I interpreted the insinuation that way as well.
I always have mixed feelings when someone is warned about the riskiness / foolishness / stupidity of a course of action, and then suffers for it.

On the one hand, there's a certain satisfaction or Schadenfreude in the sense of vindication. And it's pleasant to feel like my own wisdom or self-control has been validated.

OTOH, I know that everyone has limited wisdom / self-control / intelligence, including me. So it seems hypocritical to mock someone who trips, knowing that I'm just lucky to sometimes avoid the hazards that would trip me up.

In the end, about the only conclusions I'm really confident in is that trouble besets us all, and usually it's good to default to kindness and sympathy.

EDIT FOR CLARIFICATION: I'm not saying that I want swindlers to succeed. I want such predation crushed into dust. My comment is about the people who don't intend harm to others.
Common advise is to ask for help but like how? Everyone is busy around me!
> and it just dumps the heat into the atmosphere...

That's just moving the heat the sun dumped a few meters one way or the other, across a wall.

It does add heat (the energy the AC needs to move the heat around) but when you have the sun dumping 1kW/m2 on the surroundings, it's going to be pretty anecdotal.
> pretty much everything I'm saying is already unfolding.

By definition, cynics are validated in a bear market. That hardly substantiates the claim that the space "needs to be destroyed", nor does it consider the reality that it's here to stay in one form or another.

Instead of screaming murder from the sidelines, maybe it'd more instructive to provide a list of ways that the space could be improved.
Those two states are indeed what I had in mind. I was assuming that many other states are in a similar situation considering that the power grid is a frequent topic of US issues [1].

I think my top ones are endpoint security software or running on redhat OSes. I used to work on a kubernetes distribution, so a large amount of the support escalations and workload was around shipping kubernetes to customers who weren't as apt as the HN crowd.

Endpoint Security Software, just because it's adding some policy, that usually isn't written by the team trying to run the application, and will apply the policy sometimes in non-obvious ways. Even when you think it's turned off, sometimes it isn't, and the vendor will leave kernel modules running and partial configurations.

RedHat was more a result of the stability policy for kernel, and often running much older kernels then other distributions. We had lots of problems with the more modern kernel features used by kubernetes, that we had to track down and often link to known fixes. We had one customer even replacing their kernels so they wouldn't have as many issues. This may be less and less of the case all the time with newer RedHAt Releases, and I also have no reason to believe OpenShift suffers in the same way... just that I've spent a large amount of time troubleshooting this.
A limitation of EBS on amazon that I've run into a few times is that EBS volumes must connect to EC2 in their zone only. So if your k8s cluster has nodes across multiple AZs (which obv. important) your pod that mounts that pv will always be zone locked. This can also be problematic if you write a pod that mounts claims that are in different zones, that will never work.

There are also amazon limitations to how many volumes per node and I used to see problems with ebs volumes 'unmounting' from nodes getting stuck. The later was always problematic and required an admin with a hammer. However i've never seens a 'kube' problem per se, they've all been aws problems.
Well, impervious to over 1/3rd of nodes being malicious, at least.

No, it's the ops version of premature abstraction - when devs build a whole extensible framework around a simple use case just because "requirements might change later" (which 90% of the time they never do, so on average the work is wasted much more often than not).
The problem is lack of economic capital at the non federal level since there is no way to control immigration.

The solution is canvassing, campaigning, voting, and running for federal office where that change can be affected.
Quirks of statistics.

To have an average of 4.5, you need people to die before and after the mark.

So a lot of people drop off between 91 and 92. But those who make it to 92 have about 4.2 years remaining.

If you have a population of 100 people and 50 of them will live less than 1 year, and 50 of them will live an average of 10 years, that's 5.5 years on average for the whole population. But if you check that same population one year later, you will have 50 people who all live 9 years on average. You've managed to increase the average by eliminating the bottom.

Same thing is happening here.

And it's probably similar to professional sports careers. The average NFL career is about 3 years. However, if you make to 3 years, your average career length is about 7 years.

We probably need more of a median or mode than a mean.

> Nothing is going to change until it impacts those who are distant from the front line engineers.

What do you mean? Because companies are leaving a lot of money on the table, unable to complete software projects, and unable to solve the problems they care about just because of it.

You mean it in some way other than monetary impact?

Yeah I agree w/ you. I think there are three major problems w/ code review:

- reviewer ego

- author ego

- reviewer ambiguity

"Solving" ego is involved, but easy: you have to encourage trust amongst your team, and that can't happen in code review--it's too late.

Reviewer ambiguity (being non-confrontational and wishy-washy when you really mean "this is an XSS vuln, you gotta change it") is an attempt to solve ego, but always fails.

I'm not saying be a jerk, you have to act with compassion and empathy always, which is a marathon and not a sprint. But you're not gonna fix ego/trust/respect issues at code review time, no matter how deferential you are.

It's not a health hazard, but it is a bottleneck in a very real sense if you want to keep more than one thing open (whether for reading, writing, running commands, or a combination thereof). It's not just a matter of preference.
That’s an interesting observation. It makes me wonder if that charge can be channeled into a system that harvests the resulting energy. Basically, solar power collection but using static charge that would otherwise accumulate throughout the object.

At the very least, I expect a system to dissipate that energy would be required, or wild and crazy things would happen when such a charge suddenly finds a path to “ground”.
This has been a slow motion trainwreck across crypto twitter (echoed sometimes in financial publications) and this is the first mainstream source out there. Finally.

I definitely would like to see more things about specific organizations. Indictments about crypto as a whole just allows poorly run organizations to avoid scrutiny.

Now if only there were mainstream news articles about all the things that go right in crypto.

Its so peculiar and easy to tell when people have never considered anything aside from a barrage of negative headlines. Reminds me of the 90s when an older person at the time would say like "the 'puters always get viruses" as a reason to not explore the concept further, as if that was the whole experience.

I've also lived in Chicago/Chicagoland >20 years. Obviously there are crime issues in certain parts of the city but most of the people I hear loudly complain about it are old white people that don't live here anymore. I have no idea what you mean by uglier culture.

Also, for anyone not from around here, Chicago has a significant crime delta between neighborhoods that, if one were to read about it, can only be thought of in terms of extreme racial injustice.

This really is the only practical area where Go is superior to Python. No messing with 3rd-party libs, no compromises, no hacks... Everything else is not really critical for most people, and largely not worth losing all the nicer features of Python for; if they could just fix it once and for all in stdlib, just blessing one compilation format and making it well-supported on all the big platforms, it would be a big step forward for the ecosystem.

Easier said that done, of course.

Thank you for some subtlety. I have friends that want Bezos beheaded and want the NYPD union defunded. Put most broadly: you are advocating for the creation of one union advocating for the reduction of another at the same time. And that's ok! Unions are humans and big groups of them need to be kept in check.
It isn't just this, either. So many more employment possibilities opened up for me when it no longer became mandatory to relocate to work for all the biggest software companies, none of which seem to have offices near me. So instead of having to ask my wife to find a new job, uproot my family, and sell my house, I could just start a new job.

Conversely, the companies doing the hiring no longer have to restrict themselves to anyone who was able to move to San Francisco or Seattle before they turned 25 or people with no families.
Indices, mostly. And they understand it well enough to understand that they have no hope of outperforming by thinking for themselves, which is why they invest in indices rather than picking individual things to invest in.
