I don't have anything much to say about the article; I was never social enough for quitting social media to be an event in my life. However, the part about having three jobs struck me. I often see wealthy/professional/academic-class people doing the same, while unemployment is endemic among the poor.

Is unemployment a thing because the well-qualified are monopolizing all the opportunity in society? Why do some juggle jobs, while others can't even make it to the interview stage in a market that supposedly lacks workers?
Sorry to hear about it. It sucks but doing this new personal-values work you're doing is probably going to have to feel like a grind for a little while, until you find your new groove, new passions, and so on.

In case it helps, I built a productivity system that aims at assisting in work conditions where this kind of balance is needed (profile).

One other thing to pay attention to during this period is the big-picture / little-picture divide. Sometimes burnout and finding-meaning processes respond best to focusing on one of those at a time, or both.

For the big-picture items, usually that includes words like "meaning" and "reconnecting" and talking about general plans, strategies, and so on. But to satisfy the little-picture focus, it's important to have access to & try out little-picture terms like "today's podcast choice," "today's donut of choice," "today's list of things that suck" (to process them faster, restoring access to good feels), and so on.

Personally I went through a lot of different burnout phases before I found the kind of life that works best for me (i.e. no more burnout, etc.), and I find that an almost rhythmic cycle between big and little picture is very useful. The different perspectives can support each other very well.

Anyway, just some thoughts, good luck with everything.
That's quiet a different picture from how Techdirt descibes it. Even if it's wrong, you shouldn't have been downvoted for sharing a link that shows how others describe it, which is maybe how it got passed.

Creating ads that look like emails

Seeing that most email software has methods for denoting emails from particular sources as Spam, that would be my first thought for retaliation. (But knowing Microsoft, I wouldn't be surprised if you found it to be impossible to send emails from Microsoft to the Spam Folder.)

As regards Microsoft annoying their customers, I stopped being surprised at Microsoft's bastardry 30 years ago.
Wanting to turn on just one more server to find months of lead time and a bunch of red tape to get stuff done, yeah I don't miss "owning the hardware" one bit. In times of economic hardship when finding skilled labor to manage infrastructure is easier to achieve, trading hardware costs for labor costs may make more sense, but I don't see that happening in today's economies for most western economies.
Colab is awesome, thank you.

I'll take the opportunity to request better editing ergonomics: the ability to connect from Jupyter/notebook-supporting editors and IDEs; the ability to open/edit .ipynb files from the local disk and/or Github without having to first put them on Google Drive.

Colab/Jupyter and friends are reinventing many wheels around editing code, and it would be nicer for them to support tools like Jupytext.
The anecodote does not reliably tell you anything about the phenomenon. The experience could be due to an entirely different phenomenon, which you are misattributing to the phenomenon in question. Only the scientific approach can make reliable causative associations.

You have not made some epistemological breakthrough with your anti-scientific take.

It really depends what you mean about payment clearing. With Zelle you can send someone money in a few seconds. I’ve done transactions up to a couple thousand.

That said it doesn’t “clear” immediately if that’s what you mean. Typically, I can use the funds within 3-5 min, so idk seems pretty darn fast.

> Gorbachev wanted to keep USSR intact.

Indeed. He didn't weigh in on the current debacle but he praised Putin's seizure of Crimea.

He was a product of his upbringing and honestly he always seemed like a weak player to me -- but really I have no idea how difficult it might have been to bring off the reforms he did under Andropov, Chernenko and then his own premiership.
What about using this tech for ideation and artists for production?

You could use Stable Diffusion et al to create new characters based on a prompt, then farm the concept out to artists to produce individual works. Kind of like hiring a super expensive agency to design your new logo or brand identity, then using a stable of in-house designers to translate the concept into UI, ads, etc.
Well, if proximity detonation is an issue, there's always weapons like CIWS [1] and C-RAM [2]. I imagine there could easily be some kind of adaption made for specialized ammo. Instead of typical bullets, use some kind of very low grade concussive. The explosive wouldn't necessarily need to be an explosive, but merely just something to disrupt the air around one or two blades of the drone to force it into an unrecoverable spin.

Similar to small grade concussives, I've heard some interesting defense systems use a projectile that has a kind of "mini parachute" to overwhelm target acquisition systems. I can't recall what it was in relation to. Chaff, maybe? The point is, if you could get enough small objects floating in the area, you could make it much harder for an enemy drone to maneuver within a specific area.

Honestly, I think the soon-to-be hurdle would be around implementing a good jamming system against automated defenses, which would probably lead to inventing some sort of miniaturized version of current fighter planes, but built in such a way that doesn't need to account for things like G tolerance for pilots.

For every tool, a better output will always be created by people who specialize in a craft. Just as photoshop revolutionized photography, to this day you can tell the difference easily between and bad 'shops.

In video games upon release everyone is bad and its an even playing field. But as people practice and gain experience they improve their usage, refine their approaches. You eventually see metas develop and best practices.

This will all be exactly the same. Just give it some time and watch professionals create professional outputs compared to paying for some base level work on Fiverr or whatever.

Good. Hopefully this will reduce the randomness of type-of-GPU assignment on the Pro plan.

Ask HN: How can I become a Forbes 30 under 30?
As a kid, my goal has always been to be on the Forbes list of 30 under 30, and I have 10 years left to achieve this goal. But I keep asking myself if I am doing enough.

4 years ago, I taught myself how to code and got started instantly, mostly contract jobs that turned out into big opportunities.

3 years ago in my first year of college at 17, in order to get more contracts, I created a software development agency and made websites for local businesses in my area.

1 year ago I transitioned from the agency business into my first marketplace company, an auction marketplace. I was losing money on small sales from payment processors and ads, as I had promised the users a 0% buyer's premium. I was also the main seller, so I was selling at a loss when the auction closed. The business was closed at the beginning of this year.

This year, I transitioned from the auction marketplace, to create a market research app that's based entirely on polls and the data we gather from people voting. Then I also got a job to keep funding these projects.

What should I be doing better to hit my goal in 10 years, I feel like I am on the right track but missing something else entirely.

My personal favorite, which did not make the list, is Anansi’s Goatman. The storytelling is solid, and it’s got the right amount of mystery to it along with the nostalgia of being a carefree teenager in a weird situation. I re-read it every few years when I think of it.

I've seen hundreds of photos from the summit looking out, thousands of photos looking toward the summit from below, but this is the first time I saw a photo that really gives a feel for how much room there is at the summit. The point in the video shortly after he releases the drone at 1min 57sec feels like seeing the Earth from a spaceship or satellite for first time -- it's a perspective I'd never seen before.

People pointing out rules that have gone unenforced being enforced the moment somebody unpopular comes along is not whataboutism. The point of the argument isn't admonishing the behaviour of others to cover for your own, which is the point of the whataboutism argument. Whataboutism requires you to avoid the critical question or argument, that is not the case here, the critical question is the interpretation of the moderation policy.

It is essential to discuss how policy has been enforced in the past in a discussion about the fairness of a policies enforcement. It would be very obnoxious if every time somebody cited a similar case to the current enforcement action they were accused of whataboutism and told to live in the real world.

I had a pretty terrible experience at that job - no engineering manager, never had any code reviewed, hardly any collaboration with other team members so I was basically stabbing away in the dark trying to get my shit together in TS.

It took me far longer than a few hours to feel comfortable, probably more like over a month of coding to get to the point where I mostly understood how to express what I wanted with the type system, and had stopped doing C# things in TS and adhering to style guidelines - functional modules, types instead of classes, injecting dependencies etc. And another month or two? to really figure out how everyone has been (ab)using the type system to do more complex stuff.

Eh, merchants have long been complaining about the squeeze from the credit card networks, which routinely raise percentage fees. And merchants have to raise prices for all consumers to keep up.

Whether a work is transformative or not isn't the only factor that goes towards a fair use ruling. Bring transformative is just a part of the "purpose and character of use", which is a single factor weighed alongside the nature of the original work, the amount and substance used (if the "heart of the work" was copied), and the effect the derivative has on the market for the original work. It's much more complicated here, and will have to be ruled on a case-by-case basis, as far as I know, and copyright holders could potentially make many cases using the other factors that a use isn't fair. I do think it should be considered fair use, but as the law currently stands, it does appear to be more complex, at least from my point of view.

Note: I am absolutely not a legal expert.

I think author is somewhat correct. You are going to keep me around in a couple of ways:

- Stuff I like enough to watch 20 seasons of.
- New original content (that doesn't keep getting cancelled)
- Good old nostalgia and world building eg Star Wars, Marvel, GoT.

Netflix doesn't really have any of these or it's inconsistent. And even the good original shows tend to have logical endings.

Personally I like the resurrected 80s cartoons Voltron, He-Man. I'd start my subscription again for season 2 of the 2011 Thundercats reboot and reboots of all the other 80s and 90s cartoons.

> the Alphanumeric Serial Number is not a standard EDID field,

Maybe I mis-understood your article. I thought it was up to the computer to decide what to add/sum/checksum into an UUID and therefore the fact that Mac is not using all the data is arguably a poor choice by Apple.

> But they would still have to go through every edge case and try to make sure they don't break previous working setups when including more data for the UUID.

They break those things all the time and people have to re-setup how their monitors are arranged. Doing yet another time doesn't seem like a big deal. If they really wanted to solve that problem they'd just compute a UUID the old and new ways and then remap the old to the new way. The only people this wouldn't work for is the people who they're fixing the bug for and those people already experience the bug.
