Apple is easily on their 3rd or 4th wind. The Apple II debuted in 1979 was hugely successful in try 80s and early 90s. They lost their way in the 90s until the iPod pretty much saved them. The iPhone was their greatest achievement and made them the valuable company they are today. They’ve had many winds and innovated over decades.

The point is that if you haven't experienced discrimination (in terms of your ancestors being forced into slavery for the color of their skin or the constant barrage of laws attempted to keep you below others in society because of the color of your skin), you have no place in telling someone else how they should refer to the color of their skin.

This isn't an an issue of semantics that you're trying to make it out to be - it's just not your business in the first place.
I think it's a bit hypocritical to target China and WeChat here. Many of us don't have a realistic alternative to Apple or Google for our phones. I also can't root my Android device because then my employer's MFA app won't work
Availability is much higher, so that opens the door to use by non-state actors. Stealth is probably also higher. I suppose the combination, i.e. missiles delivering cluster-type munitions (releasing hundreds of drones instead of hundreds of bomblets) is what state-level militaries would pursue.

Little-known fact: cluster munitions (essentially, hot-water-heater-size cylinders packed with hundreds of small devices) were originally developed for the dispersal of chemical and biological warfare munitions over wide areas.

In my area, youth soccer referees are being offered $50/hr and the age requirement has been lowered to 13 for U8 matches. They still have trouble getting enough people. Every soccer club in the area sends out multiple emails to parents asking them to get their teenagers to go through the USA Soccer online training program. But you can see that 90% of the kids that end up doing so are from low-income families for which college was probably not an option anyway.
The healthy response to that situation is to just look at whatever good points critics raise, work on them, and ignore the rest. But best to check with someone else if "the rest" really doesn't contain anything valid that you should pay attention to as well.
Does it though?

The whole trend is because people don't feel like it's there. You haven't actually respond to them, all you have done is dismiss their thoughts as "stupid" or "nonsense"

For an amazing proposal for "every property is always up for sale" see the book Radical Markets

The authors argue that self-assessment of property is the best way to evaluate property - allowing for fair tax collection. If you undervalue the property, someone can buy it through an app. If you overvalue it, you end up paying more in taxes. It's a genius proposal that is worth exploring (by reading the book and by trying in the real world).

Division, remainder, and memory access are data-dependent, someone who didn't know better could easily put those in a cryptographic algorithm (or worse, a compiler could transform a program into using these).
> decentralization, like what you describe in cab services, dilutes power. that's it. that's the only reason necessary to explain why it'll never be allowed to stay decentralized (and decentralizing).

You have to also look at the other side of the equation, the user. The user often doesn't care about decentralization, but about convenience. And a single, central point to say, order stuff, or food, or a taxi is a convenient thing.

Think about say, ordering food by searching by hand for every business within a given radius around you, going to their own website, looking at the offering, and entering your details. And then doing it differently the next time when you feel like eating something else. It's a pain, and a centralized delivery system makes things a lot more convenient.

Decentralization often implies choice paralysis. Which Mastodon server do you register on? Which email provider? Which XMPP server? And what if your server of choice isn't being kept up to date, or doesn't support X extension popular service Y wants? A centralized service everyone uses quickly becomes attractive.

Another issue in this mix is the prevalence of mobile devices, which are only active for short intervals and otherwise mostly sleep. They can't be true peers on the internet due to this, and need external supporting services. This also leads to centralization.

This is an interesting anecdote. Despite a longtime interest, I've been hesitant to bother trying alternative keyboard layouts because even with only really minor changes to shortcuts (capslock replaced with ctrl, emacs text navigation bindings for all apps) typing on an unfamiliar computer is almost comically bad, but I have gotten used to specific apps that don't play nice with my bindings (I'm looking at you Github text boxes stealing ctrl+e!).

The physicists, chemists and biologists are the intellectuals and scientists, the economists are frauds telling the bankers what they want to hear.

Q.E.D.
This is so true.

PaymentIntents and SetupIntents make setting up a basic subscription Billing interface incredibly painful. The documentation is awful and spread across multiple sections of the Help pages so you have to read multiple articles to piece together how it's supposed to work in your specific scenario.

Even understanding when a PaymentIntent is recommended vs when a SetupIntent is needed takes some doing.

And don't get me started on trying to understand whether I need to use the confirmCardPayment or the confirmPayment or confirmCardSetup etc etc functions.
The system of "liberal democracy" has already created an environment where we're totally locked in with a few very large corporations -- Google, Meta, Apple, PayPal.
Which is because there's no money in it.

If you build a centralized platform, you get to act as a middle man and skim off profit off every transaction, which you then reinvest in advertising and feature development.

On the other hand, if you build a decentralized platform, you've essentially commoditized yourself: you can't skim off profits, because if you do, a cheaper node will just pop up, leading to a race to the bottom.
Interesting. That might be very specific to Rust, though. In that case, LLVM might not be the optimal backend for rustc.

But this isn't an issue for most LLVM languages, which either assume parallelism in the build system, or they get enough benefit from ThinLTO (which is the parallelism LLVM does support at the link stage).

I don't understand why "in Rust" makes these irrelevant posts somethign worth of the HN frontpage. All it means is that you won't be able to compile it yourself unless you use a fast rolling distro or out of repository tools to get this month's compatible rustc with rustup or curl|sh, etc.
> At the same time, I can't really bring myself to do bad work or generally shirk my responsibilities. Part of this is due to the relationships with my bosses and coworkers, knowing that they are largely trapped in the same circumstances and that they will likely have to pick up the slack, and part of it is just a personal value on doing a thing as well as I can.

Sort of in the same position as you im terms of late millenial. I have always gotten kicked in the ass for doing this. I put a high personal value on the work that I do and go (what I consider) above and beyond. But at all my employments there was a time when I needed help (medical emergency, life emergency, burn-out, family issues etc.) and have always found that I didn't get the support I expected and needed; even from the bosses that I appreciated.

Ultimately, that always drives me to keep a more open eye on new offers.
I would say that if something works in China, that's a useful heuristic to know that it should be stopped from adoption in the West at all costs due to anti-democratising technology.

Agile sprints might as well have been designed to facilitate quiet quitting.
I was using Dvorak on Android (on-screen soft keyboard) back in year 2014. So many features take forever to arrive on iOS, from a file browser to customizable keyboards to split-screen apps to home screen widgets. If you're a power user who likes customization, iOS is not for you.

For me, I don't type much on mobile. I know Dvorak is suboptimal because many typos of adjacent keys become real words; for example HAT vs. HOT, THAT vs. THAN, THIS vs. THIN. But because I type heavily on desktop using Dvorak, it's much less cognitive effort for me to use the same keyboard layout on mobile. I did try QWERTY on mobile briefly, but I decided it was just not worth my brain power to maintain that skill.

The keybindings are pretty similar, the paradigm change from verb-noun to noun-verb and the multiple cursor paradigm are bigger changes. I got used to it with my brief affair with Kakoune.

Vim ci" translates to Helix mi"c. After the first key press (m), a help dialog pops up.
I've been to a few events where White Coat have been doing the captioning, and they're very good. I often find myself reading the live captions even whilst I'm listening to the speaker, I think my brain sometimes finds it easier to follow along with (e.g. to lighten the cognitive load a little if the speaker has a strong accent which I'm not tuned-in to very well). Live captioning is highly recommended for all sizeable events, and White Coat seem to be pretty good at it (I have no relationship with them, just encountered them a couple of times).

The Cousin to "quiet quitting" is a culture of "immediate gratification".

The number of quick-fix, no-code, RAD tools that are delivered via SaaS are experiencing amazing growth.

Front line Information Workers are increasingly conditioned to use the cloud for solutions. Managers are quick to approve budget for these tools. Is this working smarter? More resourceful? Or just lazy?

Whatever the conclusion, the Hacker community can turn this into a thousand opportunities.
FWIW: I taught high school English for about ten years. In addition to my regular 40 hrs, I routinely prepped, marked up writing, etc for an additional 15-20 hours per week.

I left in June and took a new job at a small tech consultancy here in Minneapolis. Teaching is a special job in many ways, but the material benefits of exiting education are stark (at least for me).

>Work from home is now widespread.

It's not. Look beyond the HN bubble. Where applicable, hybrid is the status quo, and hybrid is still a far cry from complete WFH. Traffic jams certainly speak of the opposite.

As long as most individuals are limited by their location regardless of legal issues, WFH is not widespread.

>Working hours are more flexible than ever.

Marginally. Most places still have core business hours and soft-enforce synchronicity. A lot of this also happens naturally thanks to pushing daily standups or whatever the equivalent is in another branch around the late morning, in a way that requires participants to look presentable.

>Workplace benefits have improved drastically over the last 10 years

Eeh.. questionable, really depends on the context. And that's without mentioning the obvious: benefits exempted from tax vs straight cash.

>Percentage of workers with access to maternity/paternity leave is increasing year-over-year.

True, with the obvious caveat that one-and-a-half income households are practically required to even start a family now. Those benefits are primarily a countermeasure to the issue of having any of the two parents spend time with kids, and paternity leave in particular tackles the "issue" of moms quitting work.

>Knowledge workers/tech have enjoyed a hot market where recruiters largely come to them once.

I fail to see how you make this conclusion. The service industry exploded and with them, recruiters. Recruiters got to eat too. It's nigh on zero effort to cold call or post something, either directed or undirected. Alternatives exist, but the culture of recruiters as middlemen has firmly taken root. Even managers tend to complain about their existence.

Meanwhile, job ads have noticeably blown up in demands over the past few decades. Every job went from requiring a bachelor if not a master, when most individuals could do with a few months and proper documentation. On top of that we have YoE for starters (wtf) and a giant wishlist of skills with no rhyme or reason. Despite your claim of demand and supply, competition is far more fierce than before, with popular companies getting their ridiculous wish list job ads blown up.

Not to be rude but a 50+ years old who works at CERN for 20 years and probably is paid X times the min wage _will_ not understand the mindset of quiet quitters

These people haven't "worked" a day in their lives, either because they pursue their dreams or because they have extremely comfortable working situations. Same people who ask construction workers to work until 65/67 years old. "if I can do it everybody can", yeah no sorry we're not all pursuing our dreams and getting paid $$$ for it
My position is if a black person wants to call themselves colored that seems fine to me.
I also managed HPC data centers and I agree with you. I feel like the term data center is a key word there. There is a point of scaling where it's just cheaper to manage a data center with a dedicated in house team. I think that holds true in other industries as well.

As far as HPC goes specifically, we could get some of the financial numbers to make sense in the cloud (cpu intensive jobs), but couldn't make it work for others (data intensive jobs shipping PB's around on the reg)

That and HPC has a lot of grant funding. It can be quite advantageous for an org to use an on prem data center almost like a slush fund. Can keep key projects running that would otherwise die when they are having a rough funding year.

How does this intended model deal with billionaires buying up _everything_ so it can be theirs and ruining people's homes and livelihoods, etc?

I could easily imagine companies going out and buying all the houses, or nearly all of them, and then renting access out to them, or replacing them with apartments so they can fit more bodies in them. It absolutely feels like an even worse potential monopoly.

How does that make sense? If anybody can snap up your property from under your feet at any time, you are forced to value your property higher than literally every other person in existence, which is axiomatically not a fair valuation.
