So they're reporting earnings tomorrow, and they chose to release this news update today. Is it to signal that their initial 'test' of these fees was a success, and now they're rolling it out more broadly?

Or is it because they have lousy results to announce, and they want analysts to see that they'll be improving their margins (among people who don't bail, that is) with these new fees?
"Well Managers write good" may have been a better play on words, but far less likely to reach a wider audience.

Yep, those 90's examples were just what came to mind.

What is a specific local example of that? Ie in what city/town/metro/etc?
I think you're underestimating the size of the Atlantic Ocean. Both things can be happening at the same time.

> If the scientists had made falsifiable predictions about WHEN they expected the population to drop, or the RATE of decline, then we would have something to discuss scientifically.

On this we agree.

That statement is an example of itself. Well met.
Why not? A simple one line change recently brought down CloudFlare. And least you think that's not important, a one line change to code brought down most of AT&T's phone network in 1990 (think 911).
None of those features require a cloud vendor with access to your calendar data or Map history.

The solution isn’t to pretend abusive data collection is safe if the only thing protecting against misuse is one law.

Calling it a recency bias implies that people are incorrectly concluding Netflix doesn't produce good content because they are biased to think of recent productions. But Netflix subscribers pay monthly, they are entitled to continual good content. If you've already seen the good stuff Netflix has made, why would you keep paying for the trash?
Very uncool. I’m going to comment on the mentality of using glassdoor instead.

I’ve used it to gauge the industry many times, research companies a few times. I think I’ve only ever left feedback myself once, and it was positive.

But I never had an actual expectation of total privacy. I figure you could piece identities together based on the posting date alone, especially if it is negative

If you don't like democracy, why would you get upset that the government of a country/region is not listening to your opinion?

By dichotomy:

- either the government listens to your preferences, so it is not a tyranny, but as you are not alone to be listened to, a democratic system becomes required (unless you want to be the dictator?)

- either your preference is to not live in a democracy, and in this case the gvt does not listen to you, because you have no such right .

By the way, do you live currently in a democracy?

I graduated from EE, spent many years learning how electromagnetic fields impact traces if they are positioned incorrectly, how to measure radiation patterns and design antennas.
I could still design a simple sensor module without having touched the field for 10 years.

At a point, machine tools need three-phase power, which may not be available in a residential area. Little hobbiest machines don't, but heavy duty commercial grade machines often do.
It's a risk. You green light something that sounds like it could do well only for it to totally bomb. You cancel and cut your losses when it's not an obvious winner. It's a bummer for those slow burn type of shows that get better in season 2+, but bean counters don't consider that. Then again, writers need to know this going in and not make them such a slow burn unless there's guarantee of enough time. I don't envy, but I am finding I watch less and less of their content.

I'm not in the field, but I have seen some of the work done by thermal engineers designing new server systems, and no that's not the case.

Cost, noise, and physical box size are to be minimized, and various compute/storoage/io capacity are to be maximized. Component placement and orientation relative to one another, baffles, fan characteristics heat sink design, all play a role.

They don't just throw parts in a box and add fans until all components are within operating temperature. Gross air flow is one lever, but it has costs and limits like all the others. Designs are modeled with heat and fluid simulations.
In the US, walkable mixed-use neighborhoods, more bike infrastructure and better access to healthcare for the masses would be a huge improvement and also reduce financial stress for people of limited means.

My one memory of the Secchi disk was when I took Earth Science during summer school one year. We went to a park by the bay and one of my classmates slowly lowered it into some murky water. He then proceeded to drop it in the river. The poor teacher had to get down to his skivvies and retreive it!

Despite all the media attention and even research on the "Blue Zone diet" or "Blue Zone exercise regime" or other lifestyle aspects, I think the real missed point is often missed.

The thing that all of these Blue Zones have in common isn't diet or exercise but community. The 7th Day Adventists of Loma Linda California are extremely communal. Icaria is a Greek Island where a bunch of Catholic communists got expelled to during the Greek Civil War. In Nicoya, Costa Rica intergenerational households are by far the norm and extremely important. I could go on about the rest

The effect is called the Roseto Effect by sociologists (popularized by Malcolm Gladwell). It's likely the same effect as another sociological term called the "Health Immigrant Effect" which shows how immigrants to the US often have much better health outcomes for a few generations before matching up with the rest of the population. It also is significantly confirmed by the results of possibly the single longest running study in Sociology: The Harvard Happiness study. Which finds that the strongest predictor of good health is good social relationships

It turns out community makes you live longer, have much fewer chronic health conditions, etc. It shouldn't really be surprising given humans are probably one of the only 2 known eusocial mammals
I started out in EE and switched to Intercultural Communications lol. Not because I couldn't hack it, I was probably near the top of my class in EE, I just thought it was a lot of work and realized I liked human communication more than electrical communication. So I hear ya on the impossibly hard: I got good grades but all I did was study. When I switched, I still got good grades but also enjoyed a social life. But to each their own, I still code, but building tools to help me and others get better at communicating how we feel. So maybe EE didn't leave my bones completely :-)
Yeah it's not easy, having someone else write it like you said is probably the easiest way.

In a few reviews I've left (using different accounts etc for each one to avoid fingerprinting!) I've written the review myself, changed it to a formal register, thesaurus-ed a few words, and also threw in a few red herrings to make which team I was from appear ambiguous (for example, whine about sales tooling/CRM when you're an engineer that has nothing to do with sales).

I get why it sounds funny to us, but it's mainly a highly jargon-y form of language used for motions in court. When you're writing this stuff, you're expected to phrase yourself in the appropriate fashion.

There are also certain specific legal terms and phrases that work kind of like reserved words or functions in a programming langauge, because they invoke a specific legal effect in how the court needs to handle them. If you don't phrase your motion properly, your motion could be denied because it. Or maybe the judge let's it slide, but you piss them off and wear down their patience.

Anyway... For us, it sounds funny because we're ignorant of it. Just like how programming languages may sound funny to non-programmers: "If X then Y else Z" is similar enough to English, but it'll make the kids giggle if you ask them to read it aloud.
Honestly, most boutique, government-involved security consulting firms have similar requirements. Given how much of tech is outsourced these days, obscurity is often the only line of defense some organisations have.
The source article linked from the submission mentions electrically synced clocks with the master in the Observatoire.

I don't know why pneumatically synced clocks were preferred. Maybe it was cheaper to integrate the clocks themselves into the system? Patents?

<http://www.douglas-self.com/MUSEUM/COMMS/airclock/airclock.h...>

> At the Paris Observatoire a high-standard astronomical regulator clock was kept running on correct mean time by astronomical transit observations, being corrected daily. Pulses of electricity were sent every second to secondary clocks around the city, the wires being run through ducts in the sewers. Two loops starting and ending at the Observatoire carried thirteen clocks between them, the farthest being at a distance of seven and a half kilometres, or nearly four and a half miles from the observatory. The clocks were of a high standard, so they could keep good time even if the synchronising pulses failed. (The pulses synchronised the clocks but did not drive them, they were weight-driven in the conventional way) The secondary clocks were furnished with second-hands, and were placed so that they could be easily seen from the street, usually in prominent positions. They further distributed time by sending electric signals once an hour to synchronise various public clocks. The system came into operation in 1878.
Why No One Answers Their Phone Anymore (2018)
If all you do is board-level integration of relatively low-speed stuff, then yes, SWE is more demanding.

But that's not even the tip of the iceberg in the EE world. To name a few: high speed digital (Gbps+), ASIC (digital vs. mixed signal, RTL vs. physical design, ...), RF, precision analog, both very low and very high power, photonics, EMI... Each of these subjects require deep, arcane domain knowledge on top of physics, AND lots of grinding + experience + tacit knowledge + know-how, much more than SWE.

So am I - point being the article is plenty black and white, even with the redaction.
I don't know why you're being downvoted; this seems at least plausible. In this scenario Netflix would still have dominated streaming over the past number of years, so they would have had a huge platform from which to pitch their parallel physical media service. Given its infinite selection, it's at least possible it could have caused a substantial number of people to hold onto their players.
And this has to do with HN how exactly?
Ok. I know two companies that exist because of this problem.
Is that not true of other majors? I experienced the undergrad ECE meat grinder firsthand, so that part definitely tracks, but I had always assumed it was the same for all other eng departments (including CS).
Could use some editing to reduce the occurrence of "I".
If I were Netflix I'd just let people upload Netflix Shorts, add it as a tab or button on the home page and give the creator a percentage based on viewing time, and build a recommendation algorithm to feed viewers the shorts. Netflix needs more content.
For those of us who don't live in those markets, how does this $2.99 compare with a new subscription? Like I get people will pay $2.99 extra for additional homes, but how much cheaper (if at all) is this compared to me getting a new plan? What will this look like when this model inevitably comes to other markets? I'm guessing subscriptions in Argentina is vastly cheaper than say the UK or US.
I switched from full stack to ML at 38. I was preparing for a few years by doing courses, personal projects and following new papers as they come up. When I got hired there was no issue with the fact that I was self trained - they have been interviewing for 6 months and failing every candidate by then.

Soon after I got hired I was myself part of the interviewing committee and saw the hiring situation first hand - most candidates can't program their way out of a shoe or explain how the most commonly used neural net layers work. I mean, I had one who couldn't open a TXT file in 30 minutes, the data file he was supposed to use in the problem.

No quicker way to get people to stop looking for your attack vector than to convince them it doesn't work.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go and re-wrap my head in tin foil.
I'm so upset at my early educators that they did not expose me to lisp when I was first starting.

Everyone leaving a CS education should work through SICP.
No one is archiving with av1 and no one ever will. It's all film out, DPX sequences, and prores 4444 for the vast majority of things I've encountered as a post professional.
The problem is that without a democratic system, you have no right to be listened to when you ask to be left alone, unless you're part of the dictatorial governing body.

An authoritarian government does what it likes, not what you like.
I think your inference may be backwards... Sovereign Citizen types sound like this because they're aping "legalese" in an attempt to sound authoritative to ignorant people.

But this weird, kinda archaic, jargony, overly-specific English is just how regular motions are written, by real lawyers in regular courts.

(And yes, it does sound funny, if you're not used to reading/writing it.)
As someone who uses VS Code as their daily driver, I'm starting to tire of it and was considering trying out emacs or vim. Would you say spf13-vim is a good starter resource (curated plugins and all) or should I look elsewhere as a beginner?
> women and minorities

Women and men don’t significantly differ in their views toward abortion: https://www.vox.com/2019/5/20/18629644/abortion-gender-gap-p....

Women make up the majority of voters in states passing restrictive abortion laws. 53% of voters in 2020 in Oklahoma were women, and they voted for Donald Trump 62-37. In Mississippi (the state that enacted the law that was upheld in Dobbs) women outnumbered men 55-45, and voted 56-43 for Trump. Conservative women are the backbone of the anti-abortion movement, just as liberal women are the backbone of the pro-choice movement. And numerically, those two groups are evenly matched, with most women falling in the mushy middle: https://news.gallup.com/poll/388988/political-ideology-stead...

As to minorities, they are much more likely to view abortion as a morally complex issue than white liberals. The 25% or so of the Democratic Party that identifies as pro life is predominantly Black and Hispanic. In Georgia, for example, Black people and white people have identical views on abortion—half of Black people oppose it, despite voting democrat: https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/religious-landscape-stu...

It’s incredibly frustrating when minorities are used as tokens and proxies to advance views that are predominantly held by white liberals. It’s goddamn disrespectful to their political autonomy.
Netflix, as an employer, is apparently very much of the mind that they're not a family but a team, and if you're not contributing to the success of the team, you're cut. And I mean, every corporation is that, but Netflix is loud and proud about that. Or so I'm lead to believe.

With that said, I guess they shouldn't be surprised if their once-loyal customers tell them to pound sand because they're no longer a good value versus the new game in town.

Yes. In elixir, you can install GPU stuff (Nx) with very few problems. Some people have built some really cool tools like burrito, which cross-compile and bundles up the VMs to other architectures. Even before that it's been pretty common to cross-compile from x86 to an arm raspberry pi image in the form of Nerves.

As a rule elixir devs don't do system level dependencies, probably because of lessons learned from the hell scape that is python (and Ruby)

Yesterday I onboarded a coworker onto the elixir project, he instinctively put it into a docker container. I laughed and just told him to run it bare (he runs macos, I run Linux). There were 0 problems out of the box except I forgot the npm incantations to load up the frontend libraries.

I have an EE degree and was in embedded for a few years. I kept getting hired for that one problem, then was no longer needed. All the jobs I could find were short term contract work or "Thanks for fixing that, now we don't need you" situations. I still get emails about short term, in office work in the Midwest. I enjoyed the work but I couldn't find stable employment. Embedded worked out to be a good transition to software and then web development though.
Couple of factors not mentioned but I think matter:

> It is probably more profitable to talk about RESTful systems rather than RESTful APIs, since people think API == machines talking.

If it's your stance that an interface designed to be interpreted by a program cannot be RESTful, then you could just shorten your rant to 'REST APIs cannot exist by definition'. It would save time. It's fair enough to be annoyed by words changing meaning I suppose.

It also seems like your RESTful system definition would include any server serving up straight html without client side scripting.
