Indeed, my VW which uses a forward looking radar has signaled several times for stationary objects. In fact, the one time it literally stopped an accident was for a highway that suddenly turned into a parking lot. People keep repeating BS said by tesla and tesla apologists for why their cars run into stopped things and others seem to have less of a problem with it.
> The fact is that many employers don't actually know what they would be willing to pay someone. Until they have met them, assessed them, heard what they salary target is and weighed it up against their skills and experience and calibrated it against the team.

With few exceptions, what you wrote is not accurate. Most companies have salary bands for every position based on level within the band. Companies know both the position and level they have in mind for a candidate before the first on-site interview, and often before the initial screen. The interviews reveal what the leveling should be, and sometimes indicate a different role is more appropriate. The vast majority of companies will not negotiate outside those relatively tight bands for most IC and other low level (management) roles.

So having a target salary in mind is fine for an assessment of an offer, but not all that helpful if the goal is to not waste time up front. Some exceptional candidates might successfully negotiate for a bump in in-band level or even position, but it’s rare.

Twitter is raising the Blue subscription price from $2.99 to $4.99 monthly
> And if you do that, Twitter then becomes a 280 character 4chan/8kun-like platform.

I feel like it's important to note during these discussions that twitter was a 4chan-like platform until it started doing political censorship leading up to the 2020 election, and it is currently a 4chan-like platform that practices political censorship and virtually no other type (4chan is a very successful and influential platform that other platforms, like reddit, imitated.)

You can freely follow any random person and reply "you're a fucking idiot" after every tweet they make, and twitter will not be interested. You can create a #fuckingidiot hashtag and organize hundreds of people under it with the sole purpose of harassing this one person. Twitter will not be interested in it, and will not censor you.

Twitter is not censoring for civility, it's censoring for orthodoxy.
Remember the whining people don't take action .. but the guys who have been silent all along quit .. suddenly shocking everyone? They will keep saying everything is going great!
Why you consider even negotiating such thing? Don't you find it degrading?

I think I agree on principle, but I think in implementation this becomes particularly difficult. To use a silly example, if two people are having ramen at shop and person A says, "oh man, I think this ramen is making me sick" and person B, feeling that their friend A has been hurt by the ramen maker hucks a brick at the ramen shop window late at night and is caught. Where does the blame start and stop, the person who said it? The person who interpreted it and acted in a way they thought was justifiable (for whatever internal reason)? I think the issue with speech, especially mass broadcasted speech is that there are two "rational" parties involved.

> Intelligence agencies backed new startups designed to monitor the vast flow of information across social networks to better understand emerging narratives and risks.

The onus is on the people here, reading this, to actively fight to counter any attempts to create this form of infrastructure (and never participate in building it)

> An FBI official interviewed by The Intercept described how, in the summer of 2020, amid the George Floyd protests, he was reassigned from his normal job of countering foreign intelligence services to monitoring American social media accounts

This shows that the threat comes from the right just as much as the left. Once the infrastructure is in place, it doesn't matter who it was initially targeted against. This is why people need to seriously consider the impact of assenting to one political group using it to screw over the other. The extreme polarization of American society has allowed the intelligence community and executive branch to pit political groups against one another in order to increase the breadth and depth of centralized control of the internet. Take Palantir for example, it's a company that outwardly touts its own conservative values, yet participates in employer surveillance, union busting, and predictive policing. The intelligence community relies on them for building this infra[1].

> The strategy identified a “broader priority: enhancing faith in government and addressing the extreme polarization, fueled by a crisis of disinformation and misinformation often channeled through social media platforms, which can tear Americans apart and lead some to violence.”

The executive branch is essentially using divisions in American society as a justification to annex more control of social media platforms. It's hard to read the words "enhancing faith in government" and not think of Orwell

There's a growing strain of authoritarianism in this country. Notice how the language has changed in the past couple years, and how we see more whining about "faith in government" or "trust in institutions". The internet has established itself as a revolutionizing force and the current establishment and moneyed class clearly feels threatened by it

I'm surprised The Intercept has decided to report this and not sweep it under the rug. It's good to see more investigative journalism instead of the nauseating lockstep media outlets have put themselves in recently in the name of achieving their desired political change "at any cost"

For the people who don't like my post, where does all the money come from that funds the government? Nothing is free.
First is for people to educate themselves about what propaganda is, and which countries use it and have in the past. In fact, all countries, including the United States, use propaganda. It is most critical in relation to warfare.

The biggest problem that I see with all of the younger people begging for their government to censor the internet is that it streamlines propaganda efforts that motivate war.

People also need to realize that governments have a history of deciding that anything that puts them in a bad light is disinformation. And your government is not immune to that.

Because of the poor education about propaganda, or deliberate mis-education, as well as continued centralization of information distribution, global warfare is just as big a risk as ever, despite the mass instantaneous global communications. The key enabling factor for warfare is disinformation that dehumanizes the enemy.

By empowering the government and centralized platforms to unilaterally decide what is disinformation and what is not, this allows those governments to spread their own disinformation in their own population when they feel it is in their strategic interest to engage in mass murder (warfare).

> Twitter (and really, BigCo in general) engineers are accustomed to their foosball tables, catered meals, wine bars, beer taps, rooftop gaming session, and endless meetings and code reviews.

Tell me you've never been hired at Twitter without telling me you've never been hired at Twitter, lol. Every company has some dead weight, sure, but what you describe isn't remotely applicable to most people.
Some hosts/domains even mirror Mastodon addresses and email addresses. There is nothing stopping an address from being both, especially if you control your own domain.
> CEO, he basically acknowledged it's a problem and put it on me to bring it up with the CTO however I see fit.

This is the problem, I wouldn't call myself an expert in leadership, but if your CEO doesn't have the emotional fortitude to bring this up with the CTO it is a leadership fail. If your leadership team cannot have candid feedback with each other is it not going to work out well.

I have no idea how big your startup is besides the engineering staff you said and where exactly you fit into the org chart (VP of Engineering -> P of Engineering -> CTO?), but being a leader means holding other leaders accountable.
The alternative is to take a measured approach to learning about the business and org, in order to make informed decisions about how to restructure efficiently. But of course that takes time and effort. For somebody impetuous and self-indulgent, it's much more satisfying to go in swinging a machete on day one.
He's a vindictive little man, even if he is stuck with Twitter at the price he paid, he probably wants revenge.
Any evidence about information he didn't see will be fair game to claim witholding information from the court. And maybe a sec fraud indictment against those that were at the helm of Twitter.
Ask HN: Networking with hackers in a small town?
I recently moved to a small town in the US. It seems to have a decent number of people in the software iondustry (I did a LinkedIn search for my city and "Industry: Software development" and got a few hundred) but it's no tech hub like the Bay Area or NYC.

I work remotely so I'd like to network with people in my area, to build professional relationships, maybe make friends and collaborate on some personal projects (I enjoy working with people much more than on my own) and just generally be more involved in my local community. Maybe organize some kind of tech meetup (currently, meetups.com shows none in my area, although perhaps there's some that are not advertised there).

How should I go about doing this? Any tips for figuring out who would have common interests before I reach out, or is it just a matter of trying everyone and seeing who bites? If anyone has been in a similar situation: What worked for you and what didn't?

> And no one is measuring output in terms of the number of bowls of soup produced by homeless shelters; those are converted to dollars based on a current index price.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics does have multiple teams dedicated to documenting how price is related to quantity of output. They don't literally count bowls of soup at every homeless shelter, but they do document millions of price vs quantity measurements on a regular basis. This data is then used in the calculation of productivity.
This is, ironically enough, a microcosm of the post author’s complaint: people are replying to their patches without having done the due diligence of gaining context in their own first, and are offloading that burden of gaining context onto the patch author instead — which is slowly burning them out. Whether that’s appropriate or not is what ought to be discussed here; everyone takes for granted that someone else should have to “do the reading”, but that assumption doesn't scale for Linux (nor necessarily for forum discussions).

What does arranging the contact have to do with it? The government has long identified speech it disagrees with and I'm really hard pressed to believe you think this is something the government can't do?

>All government actors are subject to the constitution and criminal and civil statutes.

> I know the market rate for a candidate that is just over-the-bar for my role, and I know that market rate for a super-star who can not only do this role, but is probably already capable of doing the next one.

Those are going to be two vastly different numbers. Which one are you looking to pay for? If you have budget for a superstar, why would you settle for just-over-the-bar talent?

I kind of find myself suspecting that what you're really hoping for is that you'll find someone who has superstar talent, but doesn't know their market rate, so you can hire them at just-over-the-bar money.

If you tell me the salary range is $200-300k and you offer me $400k I’m not going to be upset. If you offer me $125k, I will be. If I knew up front you had three roles, one paying $75-$125k, one $200-300k, and one $400-500k I could judge for myself what the chances were of the one I’m interested in (or higher). If you refuse to make ranges or publish $75k-$500k I have no idea if we are wasting each other’s time. It’s used car sales tactics.

Two years is a long time, even more so for a startup. In a 25 people team there's not much room for two heads and such situations are rarely comfortable. If the CEO acknowledges but hasn't done anything about it, maybe they are shirking hard decisions.

Your example though, sounds like a conversation a manager has with their reports. In your position, you would be better off communicating in terms of what you expect from them and what can they do to help you do your job better. The CTO's performance is ultimately the CEO's responsibility and your part is to pass on your feedback to the CEO and be clear that you expect them to take care of the situation, however they see fit.

"Dogma" is the word we use to decribe the kind of beliefs other people have that they are not willing to discuss rationally.

Most of us will have a hard time recognizing our own dogma.

My claim is that we all have things we believe dogmatically. They for the axioms of our mental models. Take away the dogma, and our entire mental framework risks getting shattered.

If we completely fail to understand this, though, we are at risk of constructing rationalistic (as opposed to rational) frameworks on top, in believe in them absolutely. This can lead to fanatical movements such as Islamic suicide bombers, "Objetivist" capitalists, Extinctin Rebellion or Conquistador Missionaries.

> I'm a recruiter.

I'm a CTO, for context.

> The fact is that many employers don't actually know what they would be willing to pay someone. … I say "I think it will be about $X, but lets put a job ad up and indicate it's top of range $ and see who we get."

As someone pointed out, it sounds like this isn't too hard to do. I've hired people, I've come up with salary ranges. It took some thought, I didn't particularly enjoy the process, but it's possible.

> It is also true that a single job ad might be aiming to employ a number of people at various positions of seniority and experience.

"We're hiring for 10 widget programmers, x senior, y mid, z junior. The salary ranges for these are … and will depend on the skills and experience of the individual candidate"

> It's that easy - if the ad doesn't specify salary and that is a key requirement for you, don't get angry, just don't apply.

I've skipped job adverts in the past because the salary wasn't specified. People care about the wage, it's an incredibly important part of what work is, getting paid, it's one of the largest parts of the deal. Pretending that the wage doesn't matter because your company is special, or because people shouldn't be in it for the money is BS that basically everyone can see through and coming to that realisation will allow companies to have a much better understanding of the relationship they have with with their current and future employees.

Or, if the wage is important after all and you just couldn't be bothered to work it out? I guess just put a bit more time in and work it out. Or don't, and be skipped over.

As someone who sometimes hires people, I'd very much prefer it if all the people that applied had already self-selected on something as simple as the red line that is what people will expect to earn. I really don't want to have to trawl through a load of resumes for people, selecting them for interview, doing the first round etc. only to discover that they want n*2 more than we're offering.

This is a perfect example of disinformation.
