Every once and then they buy a startup to inject themselves with new blood and maintain their dominance. They also need to have decent leadershipt to make the right decisions (eg. I'm sure Ballmer would have killed M$).

They can afford all those useless employees because software allow you to get lots of profit with little work.
Ah yes, but that would require Congress to actually do something, which hasn't happened in the last 18 months so we shouldn't expect it to start.

Congress could have mooted this case with ordinary statutory procedures at any point, but did not.
> the odds of a venture backed startup shutting down at any point over the next ten years is something like 30%.

Where is this number from? Googling, I see numbers like 75% of venture backed startups failing [1] and 90% of all startups failing, most of that within the first year. The suggestion that 70% of venture startups live for at least a decade smells unlikely.

> from a risk perspective, it's literally over 100x more risky to use a software product made by a venture backed company than one from a solo founder.

Yeah, no this is not even close to true (because, as many others have pointed out, death is not the primary risk to a solo founder, funding & motivation are). Unfunded startups fail at a higher rate than venture backed, from what I can find. YC funds solo founders, but advises trying to find a co-founder because the risks are higher. https://www.ycombinator.com/library/7P-does-yc-fund-solo-fou...
> That probably wouldn't do much to help us answer the question of what will happen in our own freezers which aren't pressure regulated

It would do a great deal to answer the question. Knowing the base physics (or at least the outcomes) then allows further experimentation and calculation to answer more complicated (less controlled) conditions.

> I regularly do things like heat a mug full of water in the microwave, get distracted, and then forget all about it for hours.

AFAIK, everyone does that ^^
I loosely agree with you but am a little more optimistic. I see centralized lenders and services like Celsius and 3AC collapsing and running off with money, or blocking withdrawals - this would not occur had the loans been made on-chain through smart contracts, and DeFi platforms like Aave are holding up just fine during this downturn. This is an example of a shift of power away from incumbents and toward the people en masse, should they choose to actually understand and use the decentralized blockchain.

> If we get something wrong, it may be impossible to change, unlike normal human systems.

It's not far fetched that blockchains will change as humans adapt to new challenges. An example is already happening: Eth is transitioning from PoW to PoS and moving to a layer two centric ecosystem to meet block space demand.

There are real concerns with adding functionality on top of the blockchain without understanding its immutability - like the ridiculous suggestion of putting twitter or a period tracking app on-chain.
These were popular decades ago, and were the focus of many an argument over the basis in theory of how they worked. Many did not understand that they depend on atmosphere to operate.

Ask HN: Who Still Uses Slack?
When Microsoft released Teams a few years back many people seem to believe Slack's best days were behind them.

Around that time the company I was working for decided to migrate from Slack to Teams simply because it was included with Microsoft 365. The decision wasn't popular, but for cost cutting reasons the migration went ahead anyway.

The company I work for now however uses both Teams and Slack and we have no plans to migrate fully to Teams. We tend to only use teams for scheduled meetings, but otherwise prefer to chat and call each other via Slack.

Personally I much prefer Slack and see Teams as little more than a video conferencing App. From what I can tell most people seem to prefer Slack and few companies have migrated fully to Teams. But perhaps I'm just in a bubble.

Did anyone here migrate from Slack to Teams? And which do you prefer (if either)?

The position of the mic on your throat changes how it sounds. The further away from your throat, the better (more natural) the sound, but the more ambient noise you get because the signal is lower. If you're right over the throat, the noise issue goes away, but you lose the qualities of your voice that the mouth adds.

In general, you'll get better sound from something like an Antlion mic with its passive rejection from a built-in omnidirectional mic opposite the cardiod mic pointed at your mouth.
I just don't see companies being able to justify subscription revenue models in the coming downturn. Many opt to acquire software for a fixed price if they are financially sound, those who cannot, aren't going to be able to keep paying subscription fees methinks, i could be wrong.

Interesting! I am loving no calls across the board right now.
This thing reads like an uninformed hit piece.

Let me go ahead and flex my MBA knowledge for all the engineers in the building who claim that MBAs don't know anything about business...

First, I suggest you read Atlassian's balance sheet and income statement. They're a public company, so it's all publicly available information. [1]

Look how fast those revenues are growing.

Look at how Cost of revenues is declining against the revenue. In 2019, it was 33%, 2020 it was 28%, 2021 it was 25%. That means that as Atlassian's subscriber count increases, its cost per subscriber is decreasing, a direct contradiction to the claims made in this article.

In the statements of cash flows, you'll see that Net cash provided by operating activities increases every year. Financing activities explain losses, not any sort of problem with the fundamentals of the business.

And, when you're losing money, you don't pay taxes. Atlassian is doing a standard business/accounting play here: re-invest in the business and use financial activities in order to pay nothing to the Australian equivalent of Uncle Sam. Income tax expense is a negative number on the balance sheet each year.

The worst claim in the article is that Atlassian represents a "legacy" product. No, not at all, especially if you've been on their cloud products anytime recently. The cloud products get rapid iterations and improvements, including performance.

Atlassian's pricing is extremely competitive, acting as a "bundle" that competitors can't match. Jira in particular has basically no realistic competitor, and OpsGenie does the same thing as PagerDuty at a fraction of the cost.

> I'll go as far to say that the author is making a completely false claim here and does the reader a disservice by not even attempting to back up this claim with a recording.

Hey you're right that was a pretty wild claim so I softened it -- I had a very specific (shitty, old) microphone in mind when I wrote that, but the article now has an audio sample, and a reworked tl;dr (it will be live in like... <2 mins).

> The author doesn't seem to know that dynamic microphones only capture sounds directly in front of them, which makes them ideal for environments where there is background noise, especially if the background noise comes from further away.

I certainly didn't know that, TIL!

Thanks for that link too, those are some very good mics, and definitely not what I meant to even suggest that a throat mic was better than!

Hi, Thank you.

All in all Google Scholar is really cool, their database and their methods of updating and aggregating data are really good, we don't want to diminish their success.

However, their interface hasn't really evolved, and I feel like their algorithm doesn't benefit from the algorithmic improvements on Google's main search engine at all (eg research questions, wikipedia snippets, taxonomy of field of studies...)

Given that 9 out of 10 researchers and PhD students use Google Scholar, allowing for a more open environment and greater customization of how articles are searched seems to be quite valuable.

I have some ideas about the google scholar algorithm, I think they too use a mix of semantic search, keyword search and heuristic weighting based on the citation graph.

But I don't think google will adopt our algorithm, this is why we created our app! Indeed, even using the terminology "seminal article" can be controversial, and Google is not there for that. Our application does not have the same goal: we have created a search engine optimized for literature reviews. We don't necessarily select the information that works best with the search, we try to offer a representative corpus.

I hope this helps

What’s interesting about this ruling (if you listened to the oral arguments and read the ruling) is that it appears to undercut the ability for any executive agency to make a rule, under them claim that congress cannot delegate its powers.

So the FAA can’t determine and then require that aircraft have transponders. Congress has to do this.

Agreed. That's the main thing that tends to get lost when people make comparisons between MATLAB and Mathematica. Mathematica is conceptually elegant and often just a joy to work with as an intellectual tool. Its core problem is just that it isn't more widely available. MATLAB on the other hand is just an inelegant, obvious implementation of a numerical environment. Its strength is just the variety of toolkits you can license, but once your domains get equivalent open source toolkits, there's no reason not to bail on MATLAB.

>I started with Mathematica 4.0 at age 14 (a pirate copy too, sorry!)

The nice thing these days is that the full version of Mathematica is available for free on the Raspberry Pi. Wolfram deserves some kudos for that.
I think it has a more stable value if the demand for gold is more diversified across industries.

You can either try and sway people purely philosophically as the software freedom conservancy is trying to do here, but I think ultimately in today's world, you need more, most of the time, you need to show that:

- what you opposed negatively affects your target audience in real ways that matter, for their career, livelihood, or some other means

- Show that continuing to be apart of an old model will be damaging in the long term

- Also importantly, the thing you are referring people to do needs to be seamless. For instance, they mention SourceHut, and I sure hope SourceHut has all the core features and ease of use of GitHub, because if not, you are likely already going to lose in this conversation to most

Without factoring these things, its great to point out issues, and rightfully they should, but its not going to mean much in terms of action

I'd like to caution other people who are feeling despondent and thinking of leaving that this is exactly what they want. They want you to give them your homes, your relationships, your friends, your resources, your job and everything you've cared about.

So instead of being cynical and celebrating people who are abandoning ship, which I totally understand, we should instead spend time uniting people in opposition. Stay where you are and fight. It's your country. It's mind-blowing that people won't engage in trying to actually do something, even something as simple as helping a campaign, or donating money, but instead they're like "well I'm going to just give up and spend all this time and effort moving to some other country where I also won't uphold any civic responsibility". Madness.
Yeah, but that's actually the case generally with conquests. So for instance I'm...well a product of the melting pot, every Western and Northern European nation, but firstmost Irish, and I look Irish. So there, the Norman Invasion and conquests 850 years ago left a genetic legacy by the conquerors, who yes, raped, pillaged, slaughtered and enslaved the others.

Which is par for the course, History is full of that.

And it wasn't a complete annihilition, there were Hiberno-Norse elites and over time the conflict was superseded.

But what were the consequences of this conquest for me?

Blond hair that darkened to brown, bluish-gray eyes, and a red beard. And the surname Cussen, which is Norwegian.

Same goes for the Mestizaje: so in that event many Spanish women did come to the Americas, a quarter of the Spaniards were women, and on special like transport ships for families, personal belongings, and domestic animals. Women weren't allowed on ordinary expedition ships due to the danger. And their descendants don't consider themselves raped, it depends on the era and place, eg Kechwa yes, but Aymara partly, Xauxa not.

On the other hand the Spanish Conquest meant the Americanos could communicate, a Mapuche from Patagonia Argentina can speak Spanish with a Baja Californian perfectly, which was not the case before. They brought many things from the Columbian Exchange, and a religion that syncretised with the local faiths, for instance protecting the Cult of Pachamama, oppressed by the Incan rulers, by changing the format to the Cult of the Virgin Mary, adapted to those lands. Mestizo Jesuses in Central America, which surely resemble the Savior more than the blue-eyed European Jesus.

It's the Leyenda Negra and Leyenda Rosa, black legend and rose legend, neither is true.
> Force is anything that attempts to contravene the independent will of another human being. That can be done by whacking someone on the head, pointing a gun at them, or gaslighting and lying to them to the point that their judgement is deeply impaired.

I find this definition of force somewhat counter to most libertarian positions I've seen. When it comes to employer/employee relationships, what is the need to eat other than "pointing a gun at [the employee]"? Under this definition of force, how can employees ever enter into contractual agreements with employers freely? Especially at bottom of the labor ladder, where the struggle to meet basic needs is more acute.
From what you've commented elsewhere, it sounds like the immediate question is how do you route an external event (webhook) to the right websocket.

You need to include information that comes back in the event that identifies the websocket, either directly (server id + an id the server would understand) or indirectly (something that you can look up in a table/hash to get direct information).

More likely than not, you'll actually want to do the indirect option with something that identifies the browser (session id?) in case the browser reconnects to the websocket before the event comes in. Connectivity is fragile, and clients roam across wifi access points or between wifi and lte, or sometimes between lte boundaries that necessitate different IPs, or sometimes their modem is reset while they wait and they get a new IP, etc. Or something in their network path hates the world and closes idle connections on a very aggressive timeout, or closes connections after a short timeout regardless of idle. Lots of scenarios where a reconnection is likely.

Finally, since you asked about horizontal scaling, my best advice is to scale vertically first. It's usually simpler to manage one server than can do 1M connections than 1k servers that can each do 1k connections. Depending on details, less servers, but larger can be less expensive than many smaller servers; although that changes when your large servers start getting exotic, more than two cpu sockets is a big inflection point, you most likely want to scale horizontally rather than get a quad socket monster (but they exist, and so do eight sockets)
Just because it exists does mean it's common though. I doubt very many collectors participate in fractional ownership.

I’m not a conservative, but this ruling is good because it’s interpreting the law as written, which is the only fair way to apply it. Reducing the politicalization of the courts by getting judges away from ruling based on their desired policy rather than the law is probably insufficient, but it’s necessary to maintain general confidence in the system over time.

If you want policy changes to handle whatever real or imaginary threats you believe you face, then the correct way to deal with that is through the elected branches. They are the ones meant to make policy.
That seems like the same meaning to me?

That was a complex situation. At that time the IRS did a lot of investigation and you had to be very rich and clever to really make tax cuts work. My father worked as an airline pilot in the 1970s and paid a 75% rate which made him irrational about taxes. What was most often done was not relying heavily on tax exemptions but rather on compensation packages where employees could have a company car and a company condo and make use of the company country club membership and so on.
