Do you currently not hold a more senior position? Don't get discouraged. Maybe you qualify for one anyway.
And China doesn't use sanctions or embargoes on anywhere near the same scale as the US does. Nobody does.

What meaningful sanctions has China imposed? The US has imposed very harsh sanctions against China, Russia, Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and many other countries. Because of the US dollar's position as the international reserve currency, US sanctions are highly effective. Huawei can barely even do business with other Chinese companies, because they're all afraid of getting hit by secondary sanctions.

The grandparent comment poses this as an issue of confronting a China that is behaving unfairly or erratically. That's not what this is about at all. Chinese policy has been relatively stable. In terms of how it treats foreign firms (for example, on IP protection issues), it's been getting progressively better. China doesn't want to rock the boat, because it is still developing and believes that things will go its way if it just smoothly grows its economy.

The real issue is that the US political class is panicking about being eclipsed as the world's top power. The panic began during the Trump administration, but it has now infected both political parties and is consensus in Washington. We'll see more and more disruptive moves like this until one of two things happens:

1. WW3, which everyone on Earth will lose.

2. The US realizes that being #2 isn't that bad.
> The level of democracy enjoyed by the average citizen around the world in 2021 has regressed to 1989 levels

Sounds ominously like the iron curtain is falling back into place, this time more dispersed, not just concentrated in the Soviet bloc.

> 70 percent of the global population lives under dictatorships, according to VDem’s data. That’s a rise of 20 percent over the past decade.

That's pretty disconcerting. Without knowing more about their methodology I'm not sure how this compares to the Cold War era, but it is worrisome to say the least.
And the biggest reason people buy housing is that its been the best investment. The wealthiest people I know are the people that bought houses a long time back and kept leveraging up into buying more.
Alternatively, give more money to the NSF. It's a tiny sliver of our federal budget and is a much more effective use of money than a lot of other short-term solutions we fund.
I am certain. There must be something before the @.

The @ itself is optional (I believe the RFC disagrees, but on practice it is), but if it's there, there must be something after it too. So the only really required "field" is the one before the @.

Meh, honestly you can do it. It's more so a cultural thing. It also has nothing to do with treating people like prizes or prey, in a chill environment people are okay conversing with total strangers, but its very location dependent.

I met my last girlfriend this way. I know friends who found partners randomly chatting on the train, in ubers (pool when that was a thing), at bus stops etc.

Just dont be an asshole or a creep/creepy looking, and youd be surprised how receptive people can be
From physics point of view, I guess everything is deterministic. But from a human point of view, the question is irrelevant, because we can only experience reality as humans.
Ha actually that is a mockup and I personally wrote that in in there to give peoples' brains a blue screen :)

Sort of an easter egg. I also worked in a bunch of references to Metal Gear Solid (so good) elsewhere in our screenshots as well. This is likely going to all be removed though as I really wouldn't want people to think this is a Payload bug!
> Women get matches, but the majority of the interest is low quality / aggressive / inappropriate and they spend a lot of time filtering, blacklisting, and otherwise getting burned out. Women spend as much time, if not more, wading through dross trying to find good matches: and are also at a significant safety disadvantage in the process.

This makes the common mistake in assuming that when a man gets a match, the majority of time it will be a good, high quality one that puts equal effort into the dating process. This is not the case.
There's still a lot of dedicated audio interfaces for people who are involved in making music. However, most of those people are using Macs because of how better CoreAudio compared to ASIO or anything else, and subsequently, because most of software is developed and tested first and foremost for Macs thanks to network effects. And most mac users have Macbooks, which means that majority of usually used audio interfaces are external ones.

As for people who just listen to music, IMO, built-in audio interfaces or just digital Bluetooth headphones have been good enough for a very long-time in digital-audio conversion.
Agreed though personally for me I didn’t see great results until close to 8 languages used professionally. Once I knew about 5 of them I had a much easier time landing jobs despite being bad at whiteboarding.

edit: what I mean to really say here is that pragmatism, like any learning, doesn't just happen automatically. You can have a lot of languages under your belt but still only believe in one. You won't necessarily have it with more languages, but you're unlikely to have it if you know just one.
That's quite the markup on per message costs.

It was made in jest, because while building a second channel is potentially feasible (is it even geographically possible in that region?), it seems as fanciful as building a flying freighter-lifter.

"Somewhere else" but not in South SF or Millbrae or Belmont or Redwood City or Atherton or Palo Alto or Mountainview or San Jose. Because while other towns and cities in the Bay Area might not all be quite as bad as SF, they all still impose extremely limits on building anything. And what's the point of building something in the middle of the desert, away from anyone who might benefit from it?

So the courts decide calling the family and the store racist was libel and slanderous, and it was upheld after sever appeals. Despite that, you are trying to claim that the Gibson's are racist? I don't understand what point you're making. I'm sure these comments were taken into account in the court proceedings and decisions, so why bring it up here. I'm not condoning what was said, but this puts nothing in a new light, as the court already ruled on what you are claiming.

really good for those good looking men, who happen to don't want nothing serious, and then the women get burned of being dumped after a couple of nights.

There's really aa difference between what men and women expect, and also between what they say and what they do. I'm pretty honest when I talk with someone, something serious and compromises are not on my horizon, a lot of women discard me when I say that, and I'm ok with it, but sometimes I continue talking with them, and they told me how many man lie saying that they want something just to get on the their bed sheets and they disappear after that. Overall, I found some great people and nice aquitances, but the time I had spent is not despreciable.
I'm sorry that you feel you haven't found your tribe. I get it and feel/felt similarly at times.

> I don't think that would be considered "hacker" by any definition of the word (I think the word is "corporate")

Tempered passion != corporate.

> You don't have to be excited and bullish about every single new trend, but at least be interested enough to take a closer look

No, I don't owe trends anything. It's easy to trend, and much harder to deliver value over time. I wait for the wheat to separate from the chaff before investing time. This is not pessimism, this is triage of emotions and attention. It isn't a belief that what we have is best, but rather a preference to be doing the work as much as possible. Time, unfortunately, is zero sum.

I have stopped chasing relevance, and in doing so, found contentment and focus. I'll reiterate: the self-work I do is my current manifestation of the hacker ethos.

I am excited by PL stuff: Rust, Haskell, compilers, LLVM, etc. I write Rust and Haskell at work, so I scratch a lot of that itch on the job. It took a long time to get to that point. I still have too many tabs open on my computers about cool PL stuff like the u-combinator, GC implementations, cache friendliness, and other low-level esoterica.

Yet, life is much better when tech is a part of it, not the centerpiece of identity. Perhaps that is the main difference that is surfacing here.
Ah yes, all those thousands of engineers over the decades who are "using roman numerals wrong", rather than using a well understood system of prefixes that is just not SI.
Monocrystalline silicon panels (by far the best option on the market today) do not require rare earth elements (the lanthanides), period. Iron-phosphate-lithium batteries do not require them, and nor do wind turbines. There are also a variety of utility-scale storage solutions, none of which require rare earth elements.

Hated what g! was becoming, so I started using ddg, liked it at first but had to often modify my queries with a g! but I still used it, the experiance was't great, but it somehow worked, then the controversies around ddg started to come out. At the end of the day you gotta keep the lights on, if your users are not your customers then someone else is going to have to help you pay the bills.

Used kagi since it was recommended here on hn. Used it for a week(-ish) and instantly fell in love with it, the lenses feature, the ability to rank search results meant I could block out websites I hated seeing on my search results and boosting the ones I cared about. Now I am a paying customer.

Oh yeh, one more thing, for the past few months I don't remember a single instance of me modifying my queries with !g. Now I promote them every chance I get, I even got called a paid shill on reddit a few weeks back :D .

As someone who spent 2.5 years working at Meetup during the early '10s (no idea what it's like today, mind you)... But:

Organizers were never able to see anything but basic information about users. Definitely not email. Mostly historic RSVPs, a userpic, and whatever information provided when you joined a group or RSVPed (organizers could ask questions in both cases).

Despite what people seem to believe, the _vast_ majority of Meetups are about topics that aren't technical at all. There have always been technical oriented meetups, of course, and that category used to have a lot of user volume for events, but most of the meetups on the site were for hobbies, support groups, hiking, biking, dogs, etc, etc, etc..

Let me also say that _most people_, at the time, resisted changes to the site. Redesigns (and there were a few attempts while I was there) would result in crushing amounts of support tickets, and social media campaigns threatening the business. It was wild! During this time:

1. Meetup did usability studies (and even paid for them)
2. Ran lots of A/B tests, and did so properly (and by this, I mean, we waited until the statistics gave us actual confidence)
3. Were generally very conservative about roll outs or design changes, must to the chagrin of everyone that worked there.

Meetup also had (and likely very much still has) a really interesting problem. Most people want to passively join a group and show up to a few meetups when their schedule allows. But! Organizers who don't organize meetups, or who aren't into it anymore, mean that the group exists but doesn't do anything and sits inactive. There's no worse feeling in the world than finding a group of potential shared interest holders only to realize that the group doesn't actually do anything, and maybe never has.

And here's the problem. When I was there, we were about 100 employees, and we _all_ were there (not for large sums of money, let me just get that out of the way) because we believed in the mission: "A Meetup everywhere about (al)most anything." This company was completely mission driven!

So! What do you do? You want organizers to have "skin in the game" and be passionate about what they're doing so that the rest of the group actually has a good experience. Well, you charge the organizer! When they run out of passion, they stop paying, someone else maybe steps up! It worked so well, soooo many times, and it was a big piece of the "how do we make money?" problem.

Meetup was so unique back in those days. There were discussion boards, sure. But, we only ever felt successful when actual people went to actual meetups. It was the best feeling in the world to see thousands and thousands of people getting out in the world and meeting their neighbors to do simple things (and not so simple things, like finding the 5 other people in your state that suffered from the same chronic medical conditions), and if you were ever in the office on Broadway, you couldn't forget that feeling, cause you saw the thousands of pictures of happy people meeting up all over.
You can have simple websites without them being ugly
Not the parent, but meeting people whilst traveling doesn't have to be locals. If you go to a popular backpacker/nomad/tourist spot and stay a hostel you'll meet loads of people (that almost certainly speak English). The best part is that these people also enjoy traveling, so you have something in common.

You can take it a step further, if you stay in a surf hostel, you'll meet other people that like surfing. Replace surfing with any other activity you like (or want to learn). I think this works well, because you meet people that you have something in common with and have a similar lifestyle.

I went to Oberlin. Yes it's too 'woke' but this story is actually backwards from my perspective. There's more to this story and unfortunately it has nothing to do with Gibson's.

Gibson's is a small business targeting the lower end, with revenue likely in the low/mid six figures per year. It's like a convenience store which sells some groceries and baked goods. Coffee was near $1.00 in the mid 2000's. If someone were to sell Gibson's on a reasonable market, it would sell for less than 1M, I would guess more like 100k if you were to discount physical assets (which could be sold even after boycott).

36MM is completely absurd from an economic perspective. Instead, something else is going on here.

Conservative news outlets have made Oberlin a punching bag, and that must've percolated to this jury's award. It was meant as a political signal from biased citizens to punish Oberlin for being liberal in a now red-leaning state.

I can help pay down and avoid incurring technical debt by designing systems that scale, future-proofing, or retrofitting existing tooling. We can work together to build solutions that are robust enough to scale along side your growing business needs and simple enough to be managed by a lean feature-oriented development team.

I have experience meeting stringent requirements in highly regulated industries such as 3 letter agencies, healthcare, and satellite tech; in all size business from early stage startups to large enterprises.

I've dealt with everything from low-level protocol issues to orchestration tooling to large distributed applications; improving up processes, automating tasks, and generally improving quality of life.
I find the other two responses to your question bizarre considering that the answer is in the paragraph directly above the line you quoted:

You're arguing that correlation does not imply causation. Fair. So tell me: how would you manage to build a website like Facebook without robust JS tooling?

The answer tends to be "wellll I hate most of these features anyways, let's get rid of them and then it can be as simple as HackerNews!" But obviously, millions of people use those features every day and like them. The tooling solves a real problem.
You're correct, the end users are the ones who want a "real app". One of the most successful websites that I turned into an app [0] had users constantly asking the owner for an app. There was already a PWA and guide on how to add it to your homescreen available. But now that I created an app that displays the website for the client, the end users are overjoyed and love it. To be fair, I add a couple native elements that improve the UX and add push notification support. But still, in essence it's just the website repackaged.
