> It’s certainly not true that Facebook has a monopoly on communication

For sure - I didn't say it did.

The rest of what you say I don't really agree with. Expecting a professional moderator from Facebook to moderate a community is the unworkable approach. It has to be done by those communities.

Here's another issue: if someone breaks the law in their country that bans them from using some/all of Facebook then should Facebook comply? In some cases it makes sense (e.g. someone convicted of something related to children should probably be banned from communicating with children) but not in others, say where lower caste/class people are legally banned from speaking.

Facebook is a big enough place that these things really matter, and I don't think we or Facebook should assume that the decision to veto speech is Facebook's.

To repeat my key point: people demanding that Facebook not be the veto decider are not trying to threaten your online communities. They're just looking at the power dynamics and concluding that that power should be held by those communities (or the law of the land(s)), and not by Facebook.

There are some maps that require you to invade the enemy base too, but they also spawn invading enemies and those bases have defense towers like yours does, so you aren't just going to walk in and deal with it.

Not sure I agree. It's very simple if you look at what's "wrong" with the input: it has a duplicated number, which means there's a "right" version of it without. That right version is just the count from 1->n. Once you see that, you can see that all you have to do is sum each list and calculate the difference.
No I'm saying a group of relatives from India methodically only hire eachother and use vicious politics to climb the ladder in american corporations.

Gitlab gained millions of users by boasting their OSS offering and generous free tier on the managed service.

It's a market economy and as a startup, Gitlab took a strategy to differentiate and grow.

Wouldn't say users are taking advantage of "Gitlab Inc"
Here’s my take:

It seems an increasing disbelief in politics and democracy has moved these discussions from public forums to private companies. This is problematic, as it’s not in a private company interest to promote discussion (even if it’s pretending to do so, for PR or legal reasons), neither is it a power equilibrium since a company can just fire you at will.

There is plenty of colorism within India too (everywhere in fact). I think you should definitely read about forms of discrimination.

Highly disagree.

Said in another comment, my server averages around 100-200W. It's equivalent to running a gaming PC.

The reason there's a lot of cheap servers on eBay is that their support contracts expired and are absolutely ridiculously expensive to maintain for a big company. It's easier to get a new server (which will likely have performance and efficiency upgrades as well) than to continue maintaining a server that no longer has a support contract.

The reason there's not many servers in people's hands is size and noise. Servers aren't meant to go in a house; most people don't have server racks in their home. And by default, the fans are jet engines, even behind closed doors.
Yes and no. It's great to not have that inherent bias, but it's important to be able to see where the bias exists.

From what I understood, the former Google employee being interviewed here is discussing the problem of not being allowed to discuss 'caste discrimination in India', eg. during Uttar Pradesh elections - and in companies like Cisco.

They seem to focus on this blanket ban against discussing this issue at Google, as the discriminatory act - rather than alleging that actual caste discrimination is being perpetrated at Google (for the most part).

They do however seem to point to two examples of rumoured alleged casteism at Google (I think):

"I think the Cisco case is probably the most publicly known example—is that, within a team, when you’ve got people who are caste privileged and caste oppressed, the people who are caste oppressed start to be given inferior assignments, get treated differently, left out of meetings, which are certainly things that I heard from Google employees within the company. "

"Asking things like “What’s your last name? I’m not familiar with it.” Then, when the manager hears that last name, they’re, like, “Oh, so you’re from this caste—no wonder you have these leadership skills.” Things like that. And somebody else in the room is, like, “What the hell?” It’s those different types of experiences that I’ve seen or that have been shared with me that show that caste discrimination is happening in the workplace.

By the tone of the article/employee I'm confused whether the employee is discussing hearsay based on examples of how discrimination could be occuring at Google - based on what they read about stuff at Cisco or elsewhere (perhaps with the intention of explaining why such issues could be relevant to discuss at Google) - or if they actually met Google employees facing these issues.

I wonder if the journalist themselves are trying to intentionally conflate the issues of 1) actual caste discrimination possibly taking place and 2) not being allowed to talk about casteism

Either way censoring internal talks about employee grievances/ possible workplace discrimination/discrimination outside the workplace (which one was the talk going to be about!?) is not a good look on Google - given that they've always tried to paint an image a company that lets its employees openly discuss anything for the most part.
The possible colours form a sort of semi-circle known as a chromaticity diagram (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromaticity). If you pick 3 points in the diagram then the triangle they form won't cover the entire shape. In fact since it has curved sides no finite amount of colours will allow you to fully cover the perimeter. But having more colours lets you more completely approach the perimeter.

One of the best features of homesourcing, one that everybody is thinking about but nobody is discussing, is that it completely sidesteps the need to arrive at a universal, global workplace monoculture.

People can be truly diverse, including in ways that other people find offensive, objectionable, or unacceptable, when they're not forced to share the same physical spaces.

The question of how google should solve the complex and confusing world of indian caste politics is a stupid question. Google should fix their search results and leave fixing India to Indians.

They absolutely do connect to Google services, just not with the proprietary Google implementation of the softwares, but with a reimplementation. I think this is very similar to NewPipe for example. Google's proprietary services, with an open source frontend.
Maybe you are right, maybe Russians can endure a few more years of bad times, maybe Putin can continue moving the blame on others(if he still has money to keep the oligarchs happy and pay the propagandists). So he needs money for the oligarchs(or needs to eliminate them, could be a popular move), money for propaganda, money for the army (to keep them loyal), it will be expensive.

> the destruction of the middle class

Except that poor people in the U.S. have far more material comforts than many in the "global middle class". The real untold story is the destruction of social capital in the U.S. and the tight-knit community structures and institutions that used to maintain and foster it - which is also the more relevant factor behind the very real, enduring marginalization of the lower classes.
Well most people that immigrate not trough the south border or diversity visa are usually middle class or up in their country of origin.

While true, if the government downloads objectionable/illegal data and they detect that 10% of that data is coming from your IP address you'll likely have a very bad day. Sure weeks or months later you might convince a judge and/or jury that you had no access or control to that data, and you might even get your laptops, desktops, and external storage back.

Yeah this seems obvious to me. So many people have trained their minds to rely on their professional career to be happy. In my opinion there is nothing wrong with finding something you can stand, and then devoting yourself 100% elsewhere to something you love or want to learn/explore.

Deleted because it’s clear I won’t change anyones mind. People who want to believe that Google is guilty, will believe they are guilty no matter what.
yes but .. no. This point of view does not address market segments, market demographics, expected and taken profit margin.. tellingly, even fails to distinguish between commodity markets, regulated markets and others.. This oversimplification becomes dangerous oversimplification when it stultifies intelligent conversation among peers. Never say "never"
That is what I meant, apologies as it wasn't clear.
The TFA is exactly correct. It’s something I’ve tried to explain for a long time. But… no one wants to hear Obama’s green ideas on emissions where so completely wrong.

There were CAFE (emissions average over all mfg’s products) changes that also lead to some strange things.

Example… in order to make the 392 Wrangler, Jeep also had to make the plug-in hybrid (which is good. In order to make more 2-door Rubicon models they had to make more larger 4x cylinder JT model trucks.

The best thing to remember with regulations is that nothing is ever built to regulation, it’s built around regulation.

Do you plan to integrate with SSO providers or become one? This is cool, but seems like kind of a limited market because why would I want to maintain this information in two places (AccessOwl and my SSO provider).
We had taxes bundled in the price for years in Canada. And it was changed to being separate and added on at the point of sale. The rationale given at the time, was that people should know the actual price of the things they're buying, and how much extra they're paying to support government. Essentially, the argument is that the cost of government shouldn't be invisible.
Not everything can be tagged to get the source of the cost - for example I don't think you can differentiate which of your products generated egress network traffic (which is quite costly as soon as you reach certain scale). I might be wrong, I switched to separate-account-per-product a while back and never looked back.

It's not black-and-white.

Most SUVs around there aren't based on trucks or minivans.

Over the last decade or so people are increasingly preferring SUVs.

Most of these are soft-roaders, and not trucks or minivans. They aren't very capable off the road. Some of them aren't even 4/AWD, and most are monocoques and not body-on-frames.

What is quantum field theory and why is it incomplete?
> we should see a proliferation of light trucks just long enough to avoid the classification

That's certainly possible, but is that necessarily the outcome? What if there are two maxima for optimum truck size and the line that this regulation establishes is on the up-slope towards the higher of the two? E.g. It used to make sense to build a small, two-door truck, but now that trucks need to be at least x size, it's better to make an (x + 50cm) four door vehicle rather than an oversized two-door.
Don’t forget, parents will be judged for having a carseat in the front seat.
Sir, can't you see this is a pickup truck hate session? Get out of here with your rationality
I find it super frustrating. There's been leaps forward in fuel efficiency, but car manufacturers compensate by making trucks and SUVs bigger and heavier. The newer trucks can fit a third adult in the front seat comfortably. I hope the Ford Maverick is successful enough that more manufacturers start making "little" trucks again.
I think the potential value for niche line of business apps. The kinds of things that used to be drive by a spreadsheet can now be driven by a spreadsheet-driven mobile app with better defined workflow. I think this won't really displace much, if any, real development work. It will open up a lot of smaller tasks to automation. The kind of things that weren't valuable enough to warrant an expensive development project.
My experience is the polar opposite. I quit eating meat a few years ago for ethical reasons after learning more about the industry (fun fact, when widespread animal abuse and unsafe, unsanitary conditions were revealed to be common across the meat processing industry, rather than crack down on the companies or introduce reforms, many midwestern states instead created laws making it a felony for employees to record their working conditions, the treatment of animals or the handling of meat. Literally protecting the abusers by outlawing whistleblowing).

Ordering a classic "veggie" burger at a restaurant, often some sort of bean/mushroom/lentil/whatever amalgam was clearly a massively different product than a beef burger. I thought of it less as a true "substitute" and more of just an acceptable thing to eat. The introduction of beyond meat has been a huge game changer for me. I probably eat 4+ servings of beyond meat products per week now and don't miss meat from my diet at all.
This exactly.. we literally use it for simple git and a little bit of issues (only because gitkraken has it integrated, so it's convenient sometimes). Not paying $20/mo PER DEVELOPER per month for that.

We have a small enough repo so will just stick with the free version I guess. They should have like $10/mo (for up to 5 developers) to cover small teams that just use basic features. I would happily pay that, but anything else is just stupid for simple git storage.
The LeetCode version doesn't require linear time, and caps the number of elements to 10^5, so the brute-force O(n^2) time solution seems perfectly acceptable.
I’ve often wondered if this has an effect on wildlife. If we perceive the front end of a truck as “meaner”, does that apply to deer as well?
Curious if there is any data on the likelihood of hitting a deer with a truck vs a sedan. I assume this would be difficult to capture as areas with higher chances of hitting a deer are also the areas where drivers are more likely to be behind the wheel of larger trucks.
A bit simplified on both parts -- a fish CAN leave too, and many do, by just ripping their mouth open to remove the hook by wriggling enough.

For people on Gitlab, your point about "downloading the code and moving on" really only applies to the simplest point of use on Gitlab. Anybody using Gitlab's CI/CD pipelines has everything in their repo(s) fully setup only for that, and not for other CI/CD offerings. Moving their stuff is often much much much more work than "just download your code", and sometimes with time/money constraints, completely infeasible in the short term.
So you're dismissing the studies because they don't meet your arbitrary metrics. No reason to continue further.
In my university I find that a lot of the Indian and Asian students like to group together and form their own groups.

But they also have a big language barrier: they don’t speak English well and in their groups they always communicate natively. They also have a culture barrier as well, combined with the language barrier this makes them seem awkward.

So I don’t blame them.

Your consumer gigabit connection is not comparable to a DC gigabit connection. Your ISP is over subscribing 20x and hoping people don’t use anywhere near their capacity. To make it fair you should compare it to a business plan with a proper SLA.

As another comment on here has said so well - how people make their money matters. I believe that crypto generally is a massive scam, so making money from it and donating it to what you think is a good thing is still net bad.

I disagree with what sbf is doing wrt political donations.
Plants can absorb lead. This is especially true in poor, acidic soils, and for root vegetables.

While there's no known safe level of lead, they do set action limits because effects under that level are not known or are negligible. It's also not practical to set a level of zero in many cases, such as soil levels for crops.

So again, why would it be unsafe to simply live there? Where else would they live? Is there anywhere that is lead free (since the argument is that any level is unacceptable)? What level do you consider safe to live around?

We've been using AccessOwl since March (came across them via the Slack app store while searching for something to help with SOC 2).

My thoughts:

- The founding team seem to know what they're doing. I've put forward a number of feature requests / bug reports over the last 5 months and they've generally very responsive, often fixing bugs the same day

- They've added a number of larger feature requests over the last 5 months—one in particular being something to help with quarterly access reviews, which has helped to alleviate a real pain point we had

- Driving it from Slack seems to works pretty well for the team and people seem to be using it

- AccessOwl see themselves as a single source of truth for vendors, however, the reality is that it's the vendors themselves that are the source of truth. The accuracy of AccessOwl currently relies on the team using it 100% of the time.

- The design of the product is a little rough around the edges, however, as they seem on top of the product generally, I'm personally happy to work around that for the time being

- Most of the workflows work well enough. Offboarding users for example is better than what we had before.

- Onboarding a new team member is one area that currently falls short. You're able to setup templates to onboard people with, that contain a bunch of apps you want them to have access to, however, you're only ever able to select one template—in most cases for us, that means you can use a template to quickly onboard a new user with about 1/3 of the apps they need, but for the rest of them you're forced to do them one by one, and need to keep track of where you're at outside of the product—it's extremely slow and cumbersome and much worse than our previous method.

- On balance, they have got a promising product, and provided the new user onboarding issues were fixed, would generally recommend it
My hope is that no code / low code disrupts the waiting for developers to have time to do stupid tedious stuff that changes randomly. My perception is the tech industry recruits a ton of people into it that aren’t particularly interested or suited to try to triage the amount of simplistic logical manipulation of data and processes that doesn’t require going through a full development cycle. By offloading some portion of that back to end users you can give them an inflection point to work without danger while keeping engineers focused on the complex parts of the system - and hopefully hire less people into tech teams who aren’t engineers.
