None of the investment thesis is about making Figma better than it was or cheaper than it was. Every dollar they paid is because they believe they can squeeze more than a dollar out of consumer surplus and into their bottom line by preventing competition between Figma and their legacy products.

Consumers will be harmed by Figma becoming a more expensive, worse product and Adobe remaining a more expensive, worse product.
>I don't know what to tell you... but in real life people misunderstand each other all the time. And don't adjust.

Anyone who consistently speaks incomprehensibly and doesn't correct is soon cut off.

Mishearing does happen, but is the exception, and having repeats will take away from the presentation for little narrative benefit. Therefore, when putting it on the big screen, they present the interaction in a way that avoids blowing time to have characters repeat themselves.

So yes, in a sense (that you weren't arguing), you are correct: in real life, there will be more mishearings (and repeats). But IRL, you also don't normally have to carry on after not hearing correctly. To the extent that movies are accomplishing that, it is a departure from realism.

>Listening to dialog in a movie theater is generally crystal clear in terms of audio engineering,

As judged by the repeated complaints of numerous people, to the point that periodicals are covering it, no, it's not, it's really really not. Perhaps you hear things okay but most people don't.

>My point is that subtitles help people who have trouble understanding similar dialog in real life, or in bad acoustics.

But these are people that have no trouble in similar dialog in real life! Hence why this is being covered, and why people are upset. Did you notice the title? "Why do all these 20-somethings have closed captions..." You must have missed the subtext that, "20-somethings are not a special class with hearing disabilities". If they can't hear it, you can dismiss it was "lol hard of hearing" or some exceptional case.

>When I watch a movie in a friend's living room with kids running around, we absolutely put on subtitles. Because it's a terrible audio environment.

But people are using subtitles when there aren't distractions, and they didn't need to do this 20 years ago. I just watched Seinfeld on Netflix, and the dialog clarity was thousands of times better than any more recent production. I turned off subtitles, which was unusual for me. How come it wasn't such a "terrible audio environment" back then?

Because sound engineering practices have regressed, and you shouldn't be rationalizing them.

Explaining edge case behavior is one use-case for comments, and not the most valuable one in my estimation. Aside from that, often incorrect edge case handling is in both the code and the unit test because the problem is that the developer didn't understand the requirements. In my experience, in an undocumented and difficult codebase the tests will be as mysterious or unreliable as the code itself, which makes sense since they are usually written by the same people.
Unless there is ample precedent or case law showing that this kind of rules-lawyering is acceptable, always assume judges would frown upon obvious attempts to subvert the intent of law by using the wording of the law.

I don't see it as a waste. I don't feel that technology, in any form, is a waste. The world is a better place with technology and I don't feel that we have to be stuck buying things with gold nuggets. I am more than happy trying to "reinvent finance"... because I see and have personally experienced a lot of issues with existing financial systems.

Early generations of tech might not be the best, but you have to start somewhere and iterate to a better future.

> I never in my life purchased a brand new device with intention or plan to repair it

The last two laptops I bought, repairability was a very high priority. The T440s I had before my current HP Envy x360 I actually bought because I got burned with a cheap Acer, where I couldn't find any replacement touchpads. A less repairable laptop wouldn't have lasted me even two years, since I broke the display around that time.

At first, I wanted to buy a used enterprise laptop, since they often have repair guides available and parts can be found on eBay. However, HP made the repair guide and parts for this "consumer-grade" notebook available officially, which gave me the confidence that this laptop could last me five years or more.

I think people who expect their electronics to last more than the length of a warranty should definitely consider repairability to be a big factor. You don't want to buy a beefy laptop for the next decade, only to have it made useless by a broken keyboard or screen.
Swift is great. Apple should use it more.
You're moving the goalposts.

> Why would anyone try to sell me a device by talking about how easy it is to repair it? What I expect is that it would never need a repair and if it needs a repair the vendor will handle it.

Because people value reparability, which someone posted evidence for. Buying a computing device that you can use and depend on for decades is a laudable goal, and reparability is table stakes for that goal because stuff breaks.

>who watchers the watchers though

We all should - one of many arguments for complete transparency. Democracy dies behind closed doors. All the claims about the need for government secrecy, "national security", protecting "methods and sources" are trash when compared against the importance of transparency in a society purportedly governed by elected representatives of the people. The so-called "risks" posed by radical and complete government transparency are far less than the actual and tangible harms caused by the ever-growing secrecy afforded and demanded by those holding the levers of power.

Since it's a political organization with stated political goals, it might make sense to look at those goals. Not to mention that even with those goals they didn't manage to break into parliament, i.e. reach 2% of the votes (if we are talking about "the rise of nazism in Ukraine", btw). Right now you're going "symbol scary!". By that logic German AfD, the French Front Nationale, or UKIP are totally above board in that respect...

> Ukrainians and Russians are mostly ethnically slavs, ugh.

It was indicative of the culture though. This is why today you won't see a popular game with such rhetoric as Duke Nukem anymore. But Russians still don't realize Brat 2 is racist.

Startup experience isn't valued by anyone at large companies. They are there because those people don't value the skills needed to succeed in a startup, which is generalism and the ability to learn and apply new things quickly. It isn't looked down upon except by a few insecure people, which you can find anywhere, but it definitely isn't valued.
In my opinion it is, because I don't need to recall what I recall.

Canada's real estate situation makes no sense to me as a US citizen.

* Plenty of land

* Plenty of wood

* Plenty of sources of fresh water

* Pro-immigrantion policy could reducing construction costs

* Seemingly high rate of 'cottage' ownership which seems like a second home to me, which seems to indicate abundance?

* Remote working situation good

* Fiber can't be that hard to roll out to new places right next to roads plus Starlink exists

* People don't seem to mind the weather too much?

In US, these things seem less abundant as lots of our land is allocated already as opposed to just being crown land

In 2020, my wife of 12 years left me after returning home from a six-month work assignment. She let me know a few minutes after arriving home from the trip that she would like to split up. While things weren't going great with respect to our relationship, it was still quite a shock for me! I don't know if it's considered a mid-life crisis but it was a very difficult adjustment for me. I had to really think about what I was trying to get out of life.

Since then, I've started a new business based on a personal project I had been working on for a while. It is fulfilling work for me, and I believe the product is making a positive impact in people's lives. I am also scheduling time to activities and hobbies that I enjoy doing, and trying to get out in the community and volunteer.

In the summer, I have a weekly run with friends. In the winter I play in a volleyball league. I like having the scheduled activities to look forward to every week. It's a time to socialize, but also get some needed exercise too.

> Most programmers believe a number of blatant falsehoods about documentation, with the most prevalent being "comments go out of date quickly, so there's no point in investing in them".

More broadly, a problem with our cognition is that when we remember something right now, we often think it is unlikely or even not possible that we wouldn't remember it a day, a week, a month from now.
This is funny to me because we seem to be complete opposites! I have a great short-term memory, but my long-term memory is sadly completely trashed. I don't care if someone wants to document their code, but I never actually trust that documentation to be accurate or up-to-date. I expect it to be misleading and time-wasting, and so I only trust the code itself. I personally only write comments for bits of code that I find confusing, and I think it's a bit of a failing when I have to do that -- I'd much prefer to put in the extra time and effort to rewrite the code to not be confusing.

(I don't write code for a living these days btw, only for myself. It's much more fun, and I get to not care anymore whether other people think I'm wrong about things like these).
No, it's a decent take. The grandparent probably meant moves per side, so 6 fewer plies. Memorizing opening lines in Chess960 is certainly possible thanks to chess programs giving you an idea of why these moves were chosen without learning all the intricacies of the given opening position, it does give you a pretty big advantage, and the theory does not "fall apart."
We have some blatant falsehoods about how documentation should be organized as well. Virtually everyone seems to think that people know which file to open, and so we organize files as if the person is always in the right place.

This doesn't scale, because as the size of the project and the number of docs increases, we start refining generic knowledge into more refined slices of the problem domain. At first the docs are so far apart that you rarely miss, but as time goes you miss more and more. So while your outline might suggest that finding docs grows logarithmicly, it's linear at best.

The first line of any doc should answer "where am I?" and "why do I care" because the odds that they don't care go up over time, and people put a time limit on self-service. After 2-3 wrong pages in a row they start getting impatient, unless they got through those wrong pages in 5 seconds apiece.
>The founders can quit if they want, they can join the circus who fucking cares? The corporation is a distinct legal entity it can hire someone else.

But again, it's not a "distinct legal entity" that's competing that you can just assume as a given. You still need the people behind that entity with the state of mind to really want to compete.

Focus on the human actors .... If the other shareholders on the Board of Directors would rather sell their Figma ownership to Adobe to go along with founders Dylan & Evan selling -- instead of hiring new managers to replace them to continue trying to compete with Adobe, then there is no underlying competition there for the FTC to try and preserve.

Again, true competition requires motivation from the founders and the Board of Directors to actually want to compete.

The VCs in multiple rounds invested millions specifically in Dylan & Evan -- and not random hired managers -- to run Figma. They'd rather not hire replacements because it's too risky. Trying to find some hired guns that inevitably have less passion and energy than the original founders -- makes Figma less competitive, not more.

The thinking is similar for Adobe as the buyer. For them, the acquisition terms would have to include Dylan & Evan as "key people" joining Adobe as vice presidents for some years to keep improving Figma (or merging it with Adobe XD, etc) while their Adobe stock compensation vests.
I quit software altogether after programming in Java for about 7 years and decided I never wanted to program again. Then, a few years later, I discovered Python and jumped back in with delight. Now I have discovered Elixir and I'm super happy. But to this day I can't even look at Java code without that dying-inside feeling.
Business people don't know WTF a WASM is.

I'm sure "we should get flash mobile" was pitched at one point in time and the "we'd have to rewrite everything in Javascript" was ultimately what killed those sorts of notions. Because, business people care that "this will be a multimillion dollar investment"

> For example, if a user calculates "89 x 15 = 1335" on one calculator and taps the arrow key, the result "1335" will be displayed on the other calculator, allowing the user to continue a problem while the previous equations are still shown on the screen. This makes it easy to notice errors.

I love Soulver for how quickly it lets you throw together quick guesstimates and sanity checks. The ability to incorporate previous results by reference and update those on the fly greatly improves the clarity and my confidence in my experience.

I wonder what effect this sort of "debate" in public is having on people's ability to talk to each other.

In a normal discussion if you and I were just talking to each other and nobody was watching, it would be easy for you to just admit that you are wrong. You are wrong about your comparisons between center right American politicians being similar in any meaningful way to Nazis (for instance: both Nazis and American conservatives use spoken word to convey their messages. They both held political rallies. These are not meaningful similarities.), and you are also wrong about your understanding of people raising their hands in prayer.

https://churchleaders.com/worship/worship-articles/341942-10...

Do a google search for "lifting single hand while praying in church" and you will find pages and pages and pages of religious people debating the biblical relevance of this. There is absolutely nothing meaningfully similar between a religious person raising their hand in prayer (what was happening in the linked video) and a Nazi salute.

You were just simply incorrect about this, seemingly because you didn't know about the practice of religious people doing this.

In a normal conversation, it would be easy for you to just receive this piece of information you didn't have previously, integrate it into your understanding about the world, and rebuild your arguments around this new understanding.

But online, especially with twitter and the like, every one of these discussion is effectively happening on a stage in front of hundreds of thousands (or millions) of people. People (I think you are doing this right now) will go so far to avoid being wrong about something, that they eventually get to the point of having to build and present a world model that is totally rotated around the thing they were wrong about. The entire world has to change to support this minor inaccuracy in what was said.

So for example: instead of acknowledging the fact that you were just wrong about how people pray, you are now building out this world in which The United States of America is filled with thousands of churches full of millions of people who for the last several hundred years at least have been signaling their alignment with a genocidal, national socialist German death cult.

Can you see how that's a problem? Not the way you're engaging with this (which I do think is a problem), but the fact of making all of every conversation public?

Even suppose we were having this conversation in a private message. Even that doesn't matter because either of us could just screenshot it, put it on twitter, and invite the mob to ridicule the person who was wrong.

Look at the lengths people will go to protect their idea of "well actually the entire world is wrong and I'm right".

It's really scary stuff.

I don't think it's necessary to continue talking to you about Nazis and how American Christians are or aren't signaling an alignment with them. However in the spirit of good argument, I think it's also rude to try to take the last word and not let somebody reply. Feel free to respond to this, but after that I won't be replying to you anymore.

Please have a nice day.
