Housing market unfortunately does not conform to the free market rules since its supply is heavily regulated by voting whereas demand keeps soaring in most places. Having secondary instruments like this website only worsens the existing problem.
First, company culture, on the technical side, a team full of fat, overpaid cats surrounded by the worst kind of bureaucracy, most of them spent most of their careers doing web stuff, what they achieved so far is underwhelming, to say the least.

Second, Meta is a huge corporation, the money makers don't let the kids play for too long, and they won't let Zuck burn all the cash, no matter how much theoretical power he has in his hands, they won't let him bleed the cash cow to death.

Third, we have enough History to see a pattern, Nokia and Kodak saw the iceberg, it didn't matter.

And small things like Carmack leaving and Zuck being delusional are clear hints of what is going on internally.

I disagree. Permanently reserving the right to significantly and materially change your working conditions isn't clear or fair.

Perhaps for people who are still young, free and single it makes little difference but for people like me it changes everything from where we could buy a house, where our children will can go to pre-school / school and what our childcare arrangements with the grandparents look like. It's not something we can change just because some exec misses being able to rule over thier kingdom in person.
If you create enough stacks around each other, that stops being a problem.
> to make "reactivity" (hence React)

You put it in quotes but some might be missing the point you're making which is that React is not reactive.

See this quote from the docs:

> There is an internal joke in the team that React should have been called “Schedule” because React does not want to be fully “reactive”.

https://reactjs.org/docs/design-principles.html#scheduling
> It also displays ethnocentric, sexist, heteronormative, and cisnormative biases

Okey-dokey. No need to read any further.
Perhaps knowing that we aren't going to do anything significant about the climate crisis, and thus devastate our environment and the carrying capacity of the planet, might be what's making them a bit touchy.
To be clear, Caddy itself manages its own internal CA. It's the same thing as self signing except you have a root cert you can trust, to trust every cert Caddy generates; that's instead of having individual self signed certificates. This makes it significantly easier if you have many subdomains for each of your services, etc. It has nothing to do with corporate CAs, no external entities.

QUIC/HTTP3 use the same TLS stack as H1/H2, same things are trusted. So there's no difference there.

How are you supposed to build a "sustainable business" if you're expected to offer your product for free because your competitors are pouring money from other businesses in to it to offer it for free?

Google Chrome is not a "sustainable business" either; it just gets funded by Google's other business activities (mainly Google ads). Arguably, Safari is the only one that people (indirectly) pay for when they purchase an Apple device.

I use Firefox purely because I feel it works better than Chrome.

It's telling that people can't help but bring up some very-recent thing they're upset about for dubious reasons, when commenting on an article discussing a trend going back decades. People are "unwilling", in this thread, because it's irrelevant.

Unless we're going for "all vaccines cause cancer", but from the context ("that vaccine", "It is safe and effective.") it seems we're talking about the Covid-19 vaccines. So, irrelevant. Whether they do or don't increase cancer risk (or even if they decrease it, which is also possible) has no bearing on the topic at hand.
I understand that at the start a pure HTmL/CSS/JS site appears easier (and to a large degree it is) but as soon as your project grows to a certain complexity the frameworks make life a million times easier. Also, once you’ve seen what the frameworks can do (handling the annoying stuff for you) it’s hard to go back even for simpler sites. Especially since we rarely know if a “simple site” is going to grow and need more functionality in the future at which point it would make sense to switch to a framework. Why not just start with the framework?

I’ve tried to go back to plain html/css/JS before and it’s a huge pain. I’m constantly thinking “ugh, this would be 2-3 lines of code in Vue but instead I have to manage all this stuff myself and it’s going to take 10’s of lines if not more. I’m not a fan of reinventing the wheel, also my skill set can be used everywhere if I write all my stuff in Vue instead of needing to context switch between smaller and larger projects (and again, small projects almost always grow so why not set them up for success?).
>The key reason web frameworks dominate these days is that it's very hard to keep the UI in sync with state.

This isn't wrong, but going one level down, this is how it bites you:

- The imperative DOM api just suuuucks. Please try it for yourself to see. Even if you're writing a very limited bit of reactivity in your app, you will be forced to invent your own declarative framework very soon.

- Very hard to make reusable components (at least before webcomponents, which I haven't used personally)

If you want to stay close to vanilla, I recommend one of the following solutions:

national geographic is entertainment (read: misinformation, owned by disney). this article uses dramatic photography and liberally employs weasel words like "could" and "might". even "linked" isn't as strong as you might think, as that only implies correlation, not causation. it mentions no counter-factuals or alternate hypotheses, just drives boldly forward with the messaging.

as for the second, i agree that pollution and climate change are linked, but why address the boogeyman when we have the villian right in front of us? [insert tribal, mediopolitical reasons unrelated to making lives better.] pollution is clearly a problem now. climate change might be a problem in decades/centuries. and the causation is pollution -> climate change, not the other way around, so fixing pollution (not simply CO₂) is win-win, but not the other way around.

a long arc of digesting and triangulating information has led to my understanding of the problem, which doesn't easily link to a study or two. i'm a proponent of sensible environmentalism, not tribal bandwagoning. i was a member of https://netimpact.org/ in business school and took courses on sustainability (i.e., i've studied the problem using primary sources rather than relying on mass media to tell me what to think).

>The reason we have the term "Turing complete" and not just "Turing machine" is precisely the fact that nothing can literally be a Turing machine, and we need a useful term in discussions of computability nonetheless.

a turing machine is something way more specific than just "something that can execute algorithms" though, it's a machine that executes them using a specific system and constraints (namely advancing and modifying a strip of tape). So calling anything that can compute what a turing machine can compute a turing machine would be inaccurate just by merit of that.

of course ultimately you're right though, words mean what they're used to mean, so turing completeness excludes the infinite memory constraint, my initial comment wasn't really meant fully seriously, just being a smartass for a joke.
They probably don't want bad PR from everyone knowing that they laid off the team that is responsible for fighting abuse on the platform, given that it is still a problem that the public may be concerned about.

I thought Free Market was the thing?
I agree they shouldn't have put the 53% marginal claim right next to the social security point, as the max-marginal people will be well past the cap, but the 53% max marginal rate might still be true?

37% federal + 1.45% FICA (medicare) + 0.9% medicare surtax + 10.3% NY state + 3.8% NYC = 53.4+%

but I don't work in NYC.
As I said it depends on the area. Where I live right now (Philadelphia) you can get by on foot and via transit pretty easily. Although I do wish it were more bikeable; I could get to my local hackerspace in about 20 minutes by bike vs. 40 minutes by transit.

I’m about to move somewhere slightly less dense though, with no local transit to speak of. From my house to the local high school is 27 min on foot vs. 7 by bike. From the high school to the neighboring town is 41 minutes on foot vs. 12 by bike. From there back home is again 41 minutes on foot or 12 by bike.

You can probably see how this might make an after-school trip possible that wouldn’t be otherwise.

Energy policy is tech policy.

Datacenters run on something.
I agree; that is basically my take, with two slight amendments:

I didn’t have the sense there was a value judgement (more/less severe), so much as that CHIP is “typical” mutation seen in the wider population, associated with aging (itself a fascinating field of research), whereas something novel / nonstandard is causing CH mutations (space?? That’s the implication).

On sample size, I read it as “this is interesting preliminary work that is surprisingly robust for the sample we have, and thus intrinsically notable.” But the passage you cite and the surrounding discussion indicates that this is far from conclusive—it’s a promising / interesting direction for more research to find out what’s the “there” there, if anything.

These things _could_ be coincidental, but such a high rate of consistency is strong signal to investigate further. This paper propagates that surprising result, which is also a unique analysis because of the lack of data the authors acknowledge. Without publishing this, others would have no access to even this preliminary finding.
Those are some strange friends. Who cares what you use on your own website?
I think it's safe to assume that the team did the thing that it was assigned to do and that it was named for. It's certainly makes more sense to discuss that than to announce that we have no ability to discuss anything unless we were personally both on the team and managing the team, and were involved in making the decision to cut the team.

edit: I'm sorry, we do get to discuss how they were probably wrecker nutcases stifling people who actually build things in order to make up for their own inadequacies and inability to do the same. It's only assuming that the ethics team worked on ethics that is out of bounds.
The beauty of foobar2000 is that you can lay out the user interface however you want. The built-in layout editor is very intuitive, and the UI can be extended or even replaced with numerous third party components.
Good sign for the language, bad sign for HN.

From that relatively obvious conclusion it devolves into tedious nerdsnipes. Yes there are edge cases.
I wouldn't go for it. Suppose my budget is Y and I could reduce it to Y/2 and get X%*Y/2 as a bonus. But in subsequent years I would only get a budget of Y/2. With half the budget I can only employ half the staff and be half as important. I don't think it works out.

edit: on the other hand: If I'm going to quit the job next year and I don't like my successor I'm definitely going to cut corners and budget.
I didn't mention hiring, but if you can't build trust in your teams as a manager you failed your first job. This is not like choosing kanban vs scrum, if your team members can't even speak comfortably you're not running a team, you're telling individuals what to do, which might be what you want to do, but then don't call it a team.
Excellent news; the nonsense that car dealers have been able to get away with since the start of the pandemic is simply ridiculous.

Perhaps most frustrating is the complete uselessness of posted prices, as many dealerships note in very fine print that their advertised prices are only valid for purchases financed through the dealership (no doubt at ridiculous APRs.) "Doc fees" are also something I would love to see eliminated—sometimes upwards of $500 for the dealer to submit some online forms to the DMV...
I'm still fuming at your story. But I'm happy that you perceive this as a good experience.

I wish whatever tricks Apple used, they could implement at the Post Office and Car Dealerships. I don't even care if I have to undergo exploitive psychology, I just don't want to be miserable with things outside my control.

It still exists and it is the best form of website. The UK National Health System (NHS) use it extensively for their health infrastructure and it supports all devices intrinsically. This was a huge boon during the earlier pandemic where many other government websites were having to roll back their advanced features and re-enable older protocols to cover all citizens.

Corporations generally can ignore the majority of people and only concentrate on their target market. If their target market can be coerced into using SPA and other application based weapon design then that's easier and cheaper for teams of paid developers to do. If only because most modern web devs are trained to make such JS applications.

But everyone else, individual humans, institutions, governments, they should try to make their websites accessible to all. It's a shame that few are.
Tax benefits are definitely subsidizes, yes. The government is subsidizing marriages, children, and saving for retirement (as well as solar panels, owning farmland, donating to charity, and a million other things).
It's crazy that we posted almost the exact same thing at the same time: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32781674
An awful lot of people are making comments based on the assumption that such a team exists only to invent problems. It's worth at least one person interjecting that Facebook is causing at least some problems and that a team like this could have a place, even if nobody knows precisely what this team did.

Many people are taking it for granted that Facebook should have no interest in reducing harm. I'm glad somebody pushed back on that.
Sadly, no it is not.
>I guarantee a black market would emerge immediately

FTFY

But seriously, this experiment is already playing out in NYC[0]. Every marginal % you tax a product, you push some number of consumers into the black market. At some point, the black market reaches a critical mass where the thing you're taxing might as well be banned.

> Raise the price on gas, and the market will respond with EVs

EVs are supply constrained. Raising gas prices when the average EV is months from delivery and tens of thousands of dollars more expensive than ICE comparables is just mean.
Plenty of Pascal versions had such extensions, not only TP.
The only way I'd believe this is if someone ran an RCT with large institutions and without. Pontification about it otherwise is just a process of transmuting attention biases into statements of fact.

> Indeed, even Campbell himself admits in his book that not all stories address all seventeen stages of the “hero’s journey” explicitly, that sometimes certain stages may be expanded, condensed, or skipped entirely, and that not all stories will necessarily address the stages in the same order.

> In other words, the “hero’s journey” is essentially just a list of tropes that sometimes appear in some stories from some cultures. This actually poses a huge problem for Campbell’s thesis that the “hero’s journey” is an innate part of the human psyche.

For those that want a TLDR, here’s the hero’s journey: https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Heroesjourney.svg

It looks as though these might be “part of the human psyche” because they’re commonly lived experiences.

Call to Adventure = A challenge

Supernatural Aid = Luck

Helper / Mentor = Family / Friends

Revelation / Transformation = Learning

Atonement = Reconciliation / Resolution

Return = Success

I’m sure there are other ways to interpret it too, but if you generalize the most engaging / exciting aspects of being human, that makes a story most people can relate to.

Not to mention living in America is like playing life on hard mode; at least relative to other OECD countries. There's a lot more things you have to take care of / think about in America. There's a level of mental overhead that does not exist in other developed countries that many Americans do not realize are optional. eg health insurance, education, unemployment safety net, or even little things like way too many coverage options when buying car insurance.

When you do not have to worry about your health or physical safety if you lose your job, you can chill out a little bit. You don't need to bend over backwards for your job, it is easier to enforce boundaries. This dynamic puts adult Americans under a lot of stress, and it manifests in many ways. And it propagates to the children too, through lack of attention or stressful home.

I feel I disagree with most of the comments here, and agree with the article, even if its a little shallow and short.

For starters, he's talking about communications within a team, not the whole company. Should all work conversation happen in a single #general channel on slack (or whatever the equivalent is wherever)? Absolutely not.

For a long time my boss was a big proponent of this, and I was against it. However, I'm personally tired of having the same conversation over and over as we realize we need to add more people to it. Or half the team decides on an approach in private, and then someone in the other half sees in the PR immediately that they didn't consider some huge thing and now it's back to the drawing board.

So now, everything should happen in the team's open channel.
