I see a lot of people in well-paying tech jobs moving around every few years--and not just because of companies going out of business or laying off people. I'm sure many have good reasons for doing so. But people used to stick with employers through thick and thin. I just saw a former manager who was with the same employer (through a couple acquisitions--and, yes, a couple years laid off in dot-bomb) for 43 years.

We don't speak of down-votes here, but I'm fascinated by why this was down voted. Do people find anything false in the above? Do NH people actual believe in rent control? I personally know people who kept (or keeps?) a rent controlled apartment they don't need or barely use, because it's so cheap to keep it. Seems like a good example of unintended consequences.

There's a lot of vilifying of landlords here. I was a landlord for a while because I wasn't ready to move. That got me my two first and only legal cases (one settled, one won but never collected $10k owed because the con artist skipped country). The insane level of stress got me out of that and I was lucky because only months later, all landlords got left holding the bag with the covid non-eviction mandate which meant renters could just stop paying rent. I'll never ever rent anything out again.
I read yesterday about some similar cases in Sweden and sabotage of train infrastructure in northern Germany. I default to the obvious culprit: Russia. Am I wrong, and if yes, how?

100%. The companies and programs I've been a part of that failed, this is why. I've been meetings and made what to most engineers would be a truism, and been told by leaders that didn't have even a basic understanding of what we were trying to make "you don't know that, that's not true". In similar situations in successful management lead to "ok, I trust you" and then success. If an organization spends too much of its valuable resources on internal mistrust and convincing people who don't know, it's doomed.

Everything cited in this article can be grouped under the umbrella of 'manipulation of public opinion'. The tactics used have been analyzed and grouped similarly before, for example there was the late 1930s Institute of Propaganda Analysis which produced some publications grouping propaganda tactics into these categories:

Name-calling, Glittering generalities, Transfer, Testimonial, Plain folks, Card stacking, Bandwagon.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_for_Propaganda_Analy...

The other notions - i.e. malicious sabotage or disruption of groups by inserting agent provocateurs - have a similar long history and have also been analyzed, it's basically just spying of various sorts (see Sun Tzu, Art of War, Chapter 13)

As others note, assuming someone you disagree with on an internet forum is a malicious bad-faith actor isn't a very healthy or useful perspective to take. Yes, there's a lot of PR efforts directed at social media platforms for various reasons, but it's always best to just present a well-reasoned argument in support of your views and leave it at that.
I don’t remember exactly since it’s been a while since I read it, but in Scott Aaronson’s Book “Quantum Computing Since Democritus” which is about how physics informs what’s computable. He talks about how the behaviour of quantum mechanics follows fairly straightforwardly from considering how probability works with complex numbers / bloch spheres. You can’t properly reproduce Bell’s Inequality without them I think?

Incredibly bad. People seem to be too comfortable in their safe bubbles that when confronted when dissenting opinions they tend to see it as an attack that must be the orchestrated by an enemy real or imaginary.

When I started participating in some random forum a very long time ago as a kid, some guy I was arguing with told me to never assume bad intent unless you see clear evidence of it. I didn't get it at first but eventually made my interactions way more manageable.

I've had two system 76 laptops and I've been happy with them. The company seems to do a decent amount of work on upstreaming fixes they make to software and they generally seem to be good members of the open source community. I'm looking to buy my first new desktop in a long time as soon as the 4090's are available, and was originally planning to go with System76, but I've heard some people say the cooling in the desktop systems is really bad, to the point that it causes stability or thermal throttling issues.

Since I've only seen a couple of data points, I'm curious if you have anything to add about the thermals and whether it's something worth considering as I'm looking around for a new desktop.
But wouldn't the rds snapshots or whatever still be there? I don't understand why this caused data loss.
Also surprised only a single mention of Clear Channel in this thread.
In other words, it's still a price control, albeit less aggressive.
I enjoy other adults being told to behave when they aren't behaving. It's only happened to me once, when I was new to the site and wasn't respecting the site guidelines. It chafed a little, but I recognized the wisdom behind the system.

It doesn't need to be controlled by the individual poster, nobody owes you that. If you don't like it, you can go elsewhere. Among other things, HN benefits from rate-limiting, because it reduces the amount of garbage for mods to sift through.
LOL! Reddit is full of psyop posters like these. Especially when some celebrity says some real shit about govmnt, you'll see reddit next day overloaded with personal attacks of all kinds on such person.
I'm not the person you responded to, but the exact same thing played out where I live (Vancouver) recently. We also have a massive crisis of homelessness here, which has led to more crime, theft, etc. The party's solution? Make the city safer (for the homeowners, interpretation mine) by hiring more police.

The winning party (ABC, which had all of their candidates claim seats) did not have majority support, they were just one of the only parties that wasn't campaigning heavily on building more affordable housing (8 other parties committed to affordable housing likely split the vote)

So the homeowners largely supported them, and that class of people are also more likely to have time to research the confusing election.

ABC's mayoral candidate had the highest voter support of any of their candidates, and it was still only 86,000 of 172,000 voters.

I think the percentage of adults renting vs. owning their home in Vancouver is about 50/50, but I can't imagine how people who didn't already enter wealth through real estate appreciation could afford to buy a home here now. If prices don't fall, I would never be able to buy a home here.
Yeah I never understood why they are spending so much time on this. Seems like they would be better off improving the hardware offering, or just making generic integrations which work on any Linux distribution?

Indeed. Unsurprisingly, they did make some notes about this in the study:

"We were unable to estimate the effect of vaccination and infection year on long COVID symptoms in our study due to the very short follow-up period among those vaccinated and infected in the year 2022 (median 8 (IQR 4–14) and 12 (7–16) days, respectively) compared to those unvaccinated and infected in the year 2021 (33 (16–77) and 64 (31–90) days, respectively). Furthermore, the majority (81%) of patients vaccinated before infection in our cohort were infected with SARS-CoV-2 within 2 weeks of vaccination, which would be before acquiring immunity from vaccination, thus restricting the validity of our data to assess the effects of vaccination on long COVID."

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-022-01909-w

> ... it'd be great to see a large study like this of vaccinated people.

I, too, am very interested in further research in this area, because it will strongly inform my actions now and for the next couple of years. As noted above though, it's frustrating, but it sounds like it's way too early.

So much this, it's not even funny. Anyone who is concerned about "enemy posters" is either a nazi or SJW (or some other category) in my opinion. There are exceptions but in general it's true. They have some specific cause they're trying to put forth and naturally people say things that conflict with it and so they get upset at random innocent bystanders. I've never had this feeling where a """psyop""" is under way in my entire life, so I have zero empathy for it. My internet experience since the 90s on public servers has been miserable due to these insufferable people with undue power (moderation capabilities).

I cannot name a single internet service that has ever been controlled by level headed people. I expect to go on there and just casually talk about whatever I want but within 5 minutes they post a giant wall of rules and my immediate first thought is, "jesus christ, what the fuck happened???". Of course a big part of the problem is that the moderation position attracts a certain type of brain dead, melodramatic, moral obsessed person whereas in reality it only exists to delete spam posts.
Still cannot center an element in a box and then put another element to the left of it on another layer. Or synchronize widths of two elements in different containers. Or draw an extents border with some padding behind an arbitrary set of elements.

“Coherent communities” being the key phrase there
Ironically, a lot of the organic content posted on Reddit is probably better at generating social unrest, demoralizing citizens, and altering perceptions of the United States than any foreign adversary could manufacture. I think many of these same motivations are at play:

> The dopamine chemistry is just too good: you've got an enemy, the feeling of being in a dramatic narrative where nothing's what it seems, the superiority of knowing that you've spotted something everyone missed

People on social media sites just love to think that they've got everything figured out in a way that isn't obvious to the people around them in the real world. These sites create a feedback loop wherein people are encouraged to post more content that feeds the hive minds' ideas while downvoting/rejecting anything that doesn't match.
Finally some interesting data. Already downloading... :)
If a very sensitive posting of a critical nature has been posted on a forum - it can be quickly removed from public view by 'forum sliding.' In this technique a number of unrelated posts are quietly prepositioned on the forum and allowed to 'age.' Each of these misdirectional forum postings can then be called upon at will to trigger a 'forum slide.' The second requirement is that several fake accounts exist, which can be called upon, to ensure that this technique is not exposed to the public. To trigger a 'forum slide' and 'flush' the critical post out of public view it is simply a matter of logging into each account both real and fake and then 'replying' to prepositined postings with a simple 1 or 2 line comment. This brings the unrelated postings to the top of the forum list, and the critical posting 'slides' down the front page, and quickly out of public view. Although it is difficult or impossible to censor the posting it is now lost in a sea of unrelated and unuseful postings. By this means it becomes effective to keep the readers of the forum reading unrelated and non-issue items.

Except if someone bumps it again it means you need to make a bunch of new replies again, which will look suspicious and be a lot of work. Also, it would still be indexable in google.
The word "vaccine" appears nowhere in the linked article.

As for your off topic post, if you were concerned with the data I would think your first step would be to verify if the data was real. Your second step would be to understand the context in which the data was collected and reported. Your third step would probably be to attempt to establish a baseline of how many reports we'd expect if the vaccine were a placebo.

Even one of those anti-vaccer web sites has a disclaimer that says "Reports are not proof of causality." Which seems to hint that you misunderstand what the data is reporting.
I wonder if the same thing will happen with COVID.

You are thinking of i-bonds. I'm referring to straight up Treasury bills, notes, and bonds.
Really? HN comments are full of tangents that only partly relate to an original post's topic, and it makes them all the more interesting in general. The comment above is talking about COVID vaccines with interesting links and a decent argument, in a post about long covid and its effects. There's plenty of conversation-worthy correlation between the two.
I personally never found Noah's argument very convincing here. There are people living decent lives that are consuming fewer environmental resources, and all else being equal, they have less elasticity to modify their behavior (whether personally, or with government organization) to reduce it yet more with techniques available. Because, by definition, the very best such systems are somewhere near the frontier of what we know how to do.

A country like the United States has a lot of room to improve without getting into exotic techniques. We'll need exotic techniques as well to achieve the most ambitious aims, but we shouldn't overlook mature options.
> The relatively paltry numbers ..

Wait, what?

"A total of 486,149 non-hospitalized individuals had a coded record of SARS-CoV-2 infection [...]. From the pool of patients with no recorded evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection, 1,944,580 individuals were propensity score-matched to patients infected with SARS-CoV-2."

>There's nothing guaranteeing the Fed will try to juice the market the same way they've done in the past;

There is a ton of political will to ensuring the market keeps rising.

Significant portion of voters are invested via retirement account.

Politicians are invested via their own investments.

Rich people own public equities,

And finally, hundreds of billions of dollars of unfunded liabilities for taxpayer funded pensions are invested in the market. The worse the market performs, the higher taxes have to be to pay for all those good plated retirement benefits.

If anything, I would say the only guarantee is that on a timescale of 5+ years, government leaders will always choose to sacrifice purchasing power of currency to keep nominal asset value increasing.

In contrast to all the dubiously useful AI applications springing up lately, one that would be great is an AI that can reliably and accurately detect bots, shills, astroturf, disguised advertisements and other sponsored content masquerading as organic. I’d install a browser plug-in that could put a warning under comments and tweets that are detected as fake or a bad faith actor.

In general, I get the somewhat paternalistic sentiment that people should be provided for in retirement in spite of lack of explicit savings on their part (presumably in excess of Social Security). As a society, we don't want elderly people to lack shelter and food.

However, I find it hard to argue that the fix is to tie increased retirement security to very long term employment with government or individual large companies. Basically, the typical tech worker would get basically no pension under the terms of most pension agreements of the 50s-80s even if the large tech companies offered such.
