None of those are examples of a con though.

If you thought you were buying coke and got flour, that would be a con, but if not it's just illegal.

I'm not saying buy the stock, but that doesn't make it a con any more than any other thing I wouldn't buy.

Going to mars also isn't a con. It's just a reason (for you) not to buy the stock and or the cars.
Yes, because Germany already has a “LLC”, its GmbH. but if you have less than 25k you have to call yourself “UG (haftungsbeschränkt)”, which, in the end, has the same meaning, only spelled out…

In Atlanta if you turn off your A/C at 6pm you’re not going to be able to cool the building back down by the time the employees return in the morning. Reduce it a bit, sure, but it needs to be running 24/7.

It would be a better benefit to society to turn most of these office buildings into apartments.

Feels more like a classic late 2010s bubble "tech" business.

A business model that's been around for years, is minimally affected by tech, the guy proposing to build a "tech company" out of it is a self-dealing conman and the VC's exit strategy is presumably to achieve rapid growth by selling below cost price before offloading to greater fools who think the advantage over incumbents is a tech moat, not VCs underwriting losses

Ask HN: Can We Have a 'Sort Stories from Domain by Popularity' Button?
Or at least a way to sort them by anything more than just chronological order?

Because there are certain sites posted here which have a ton of interesting stories/articles posted on them, and I'd love to know which ones the Hacker News userbase thinks are most worth reading, and start with those. Additionally, popular submissions tend to get a lot of comments too, and reading the comments is often just as enlightening as reading the source material here.

Japan is a high-trust society. I recently made a booking at a rather expensive inn (ryokan), whose T&C says there are high cancellation fees if you don't show up, but was not required to hand over credit card details or anything else than could enforce this.

gov.uk serves all of the UK - including the person who lives in the middle of the mobile dead spot, and the person who can't even get consistently working ADSL. 4G/5G doesn't cover the UK by a very long way, and there's plenty of the UK who cannot afford anything but the cheapest smartphone.

It's much less common in the UK than the US to buy a smartphone on credit - cheap phones with cheap pre-paid plans are normal - so low-end models with very slow chips are more common. The sort of thing where even scrolling through your contact menu will induce lag.

That is the core issue I think. Since your gut is not helping, you need to intellectualize it a lot.
I believe that people like Neumann are the reason why we have some bad people in governments, like the chicken and egg? Was the corruptor born before the corrupted? I think so?

But yeah I trust government more than privates, if anything because there are three branches in governments that oversee each other and are independent and because people can try but somehow the justice comes

And most importantly, are elected

> Mozilla conquered a significant chunk of Internet Explorer's marketshare back in the day despite the latter being the preinstalled default.

My point is what FF did then was unusual, requiring the incumbent to be negligent for a long time. Chrome and its derivatives are moving quickly. (Perhaps even wrecklessly so given security implications of some of their 'standards'.) Chrome also sets the standards Mozilla must now follow to keep up, and exceed to overtake it.

Isn't it strange that even huge well funded competitors have all given up and just fork Chrome? They do it because they cannot compete starting from their own foundation. Chrome is too entrenched and moving too fast.

> Mozilla can win over the masses in one day by just embedding uBlock Origin and using that fact in their PR and marketing.

Brave has ad blocking preinstalled, so does Chrome to some extent. I don't think Mozilla would stand out with UO alone. And even if it did and became dominant what would that mean for creators who are ad supported?

Its pretty common knowledge, they talk about it on their blog too. We’re very happy with DO; Support is very easy to reach, prices are reasonable, downtime has been acceptable for the price.

I don’t really see operating your own data center as a GOOD thing. These professional data center providers serve 911 and financial clients, while gcp/aws serve selfies and cat pictures. The later considers their consumers cattle for the slaughter, while these professional colo providers don’t have that conflict of interest.
Honesty, this is "just" MQTT/HTTPS ingress.

Further communication to Pub/Sub wouldn't change in any way.

IoT Core as a service has some design choices that make it attractive such as JWT token auth, and complex to optimize, such as communication pattern details.

If any of you would be interested in migrating to a fully compatible solution, give me a shout at rwarz[at]softserveinc.com since we are building one ;)
> Adam Neumann is basically Elizabeth Holmes...

With one big difference. I've worked in a WeWork. I know many people who have. The product is real and it did fundamentally change the idea of coworking (you ever heard of Regus before WeWork came along?). And I'd work at a WeWork again. It was a great experience.
Of course its a good thing. We in theory have a balance of powers between the branches for well founded reasons. Give too much power to one branch and its easy for them to rule by themselves and create tyranny. Non elected officials shouldn't be able to create law. That power should remain exclusively with the legislature. Give it to people who are not accountable to the voters and they can and will start working against the will of the people. And it will happen quite easily.
It's easy enough to get legs(and everything else) by doing crawling routines. I basically replaced the gym with crawling, pull-ups and cycling. Most of the time, I just stick with bodyweight though I suspect I could optimize the progression with load. It's just really easy to be in the habit of a short crawl each day.
A large number of cloud providers will likely have a blend of their own datacenters as well as installations within other providers' centers. I've been in that data center at 200 Paul Ave in San Francisco, back in early 2010, and can confirm that at the time, it definitely had multiple floors' worth of racked, running equipment owned by Facebook, despite them already having their own data centers at that point.
The options were 3.5 hours one day a week vs 30 minutes every day.

"Multiple hours every day" was not an option.
Online conferences have been a complete bust for me. They're on par with IRC or forums, background noise with bursts of activity.

I loved going to conferences because the setting seems to often attract people that exactly are not the always-on-always-busy people, and you can go from tech talk to chitchatting back to tech talk. Also it was always a good excuse to visit another city and maybe add a day of sightseeing, or just break the habits the of every day work.

I miss in-person conferences and I don't see myself participating in a lot of online ones. You have all the problems of bad cameras, bad microphones, bad remote conferencing software. Totally willing to accept these in order to save 30-90 minutes of commuting every day, and you can get yourself suited in your team... but not willing to accept that for twice a year events that used to be awesome and fun.

Guess I have to clarify that I'm 95% happily WFH since March 2020 and I see no problems, given the right team and circumstances. I'm not one of these super extroverted people, but I do love conferences.

IC development was even worse. We (some of my professors) were reverse engineering western CPUs etc. for domestic consumption. This involved gently shaving top of the package and retracing the circuitry for lithography.

There were moments of genuine excitement however, when the sandpaper caught some of the circuit one had to imagine what should have been there. Thus creating novel design.

Just want to make sure we aren’t just making assumptions.

I would think most folks of any income would replace their phones even every 5 years, simply because the batteries would’ve died. And I’d think any phone in the past 5 years would be reasonably decent. Even the ultra cheap ones.

Plus with networks, cell carriers are at least incentivized in general to get folks off 3g into lte since it’s cheaper for them to not have to maintain N systems.

Given the history of WeWork, my best guess is that Neumann's chief skill is convincing people to give him money and let him do whatever he wants with it.

He ran WeWork poorly. He convinced the board to let him scam it (legally). And he walked away with an unbelievable amount of money that came from VCs.

Given he has this skill, if I were a VC I wouldn't let him enter the building. I would have his email addresses on block lists. And I sure as hell wouldn't let him into a meeting where he can use his skills to convince me to give him money.
As with all regimen-based health/nutrition studies, the results can be ignored.
Instead, use these studies for ideas, and experiment yourself to find out what works for you.

I live in Holland. It works quite well here. We only have a government that believes "the market" will fix the housing problems. The problem is that "the market" has no incentive to do so.
So I am really happy that social housing is quite functional here.
A world where that person might want to track users or sell privacy intrusive advertisments on their blog.
Given the private public partnerships, I fear geniuses like Adam are empowered and funded by the government to nationalize housing in a epic disaster.
Thanks for helping surface these. The sad fact, though, is that Japanese IT salaries even at the "good" companies are still a fraction of the global market rate.

I was recently approached for an engineering management role at the innovation wing of $JAPANESE_MEGACORP (and I see they're one of your customers!). Alas, the top of their range was around half of what I'm getting paid in Singapore, and that's before accounting for much higher taxes etc.
Didn't AN's wife have a side project in the WeWork days focused on residential? I know she had one focused on schools.

Just looked it up. She did. It was called WeLive. The school one was WeGrow.
> Why exactly is a tech-focused VC interested in this?

My strong suspicion is that this involves tokenized rent payments on a blockchain, and that a16z is looking to make their money back on the tokens. Never underestimate is cynicism of a16z.

Keep in mind that a16z participated in A-series on the Neumann Flowcarbon tokenized carbon credit scheme just in May. That is already dead

Multiple Gigawatt. Still orders of magnitude better than solar; still less land area.

The land-based panels are 42lbs for 450W. The space-based ones are 6W per gram. Lots of room in the equation for cooling.

The 89% transmission already figured in weather and absorption; you don't get to count that twice.

Rotating panels get what? 25% better? Still an order of magnitude improvement.

Launch costs are dropping like a stone. Plan now; it'll be in the hundreds of dollars when you launch.

The slang about 'it'll never pay' is just talk. I'd hoped for some information, not just wet-blanket doubt.

Like the hot air about 9X being so far from the truth. Turns out, it's just about right. So I guess I'll have to look elsewhere for more information.

Somebody will make an orbital station, use it for space-based operations and all the hot air will disappear. And not that far in the future.

Edit: TLDR Nice clean graphics, shit UX for the actual thing you are trying to do, here’s an example:

Nice that the Universal credit page is 17 seconds faster, but has anyone else noticed how they use dark patterns to screw you out of money you are due by making it really hard to submit accurate year end accounts if you have submitted an estimate at Tax credits renewal time because you didn’t have your year end accounts yet. The only way is to phone and go on hold for 2-4 hours or to write a letter to an address that is not listed anywhere on the website. I am having to pay back £75 / month of tax credits that I was legally due because I didn’t manage to submit this information to the correct place by the deadline. What is even more annoying is they have all this information as tax returns are submitted to the same government department and have all the information they need. The two departments even share the same bank account number for tax payements and tax credit repayments and use the same letterhead. They used to sync this information automatically but they changed the system at some point around 10-12 years ago. I can’t imagine why they have done this apart from it is designed just to screw money out of small business owners and sole traders that don’t make much money e.g. cleaners, hairdressers, window cleaners, dog walkers etc. It’s not setting a very good example if you want people to be honest and declare all their cash income!
Maybe they think this "tech nomad" thing is going to get big? Personally, I don't think it will be a big market. Maybe young people starting their working careers or consultants/contractors who travel to go on-site for jobs lasting longer than a week.

I can see that: you buy in so you have the same sort of apartment/living space wherever you need to be.

> I don't know why you're getting downvoted so hard.

Me neither. It is because of comments like this that I don't downvote people. The signal is too vague. I can report from the front that this is a surprisingly polarising comment; the early score is all over the place.

Just in case the sibling theory is correct ... Contextualising to the US I would have thought it uncontroversial to say that a schizophrenic Bush-Obama-Trump-Biden producing system is not one you want controlling your house. Because that is what politics is. At least half that group should concern any reader, ideally 4 for 4 for people who are more interested in results than intentions.
I think one aspect that you have overlooked is that there is a reason why companies are paying that amount for that role and that reason is - they (the employee) are expected to produce x amount of 'stuff' at a certain level because it is needed for the company to function.

A boss can't go 'Well, we are only paying person y a third of what we would normally pay so that deadline can be extended by 3x'. Even if they opted to employ a total of 3x minimum wagers that does not equal 3x ability nor 3x the output.

In short - All that you would be doing is experiencing the same pressures of deadlines and performance reviews as your peers for a fraction of what your colleagues are earning but with all the same pressures.
