>The best part would be the rapid "Oh no, we don't need you on a non-compete anymore"

I've witnessed this on the other end. Someone was being pressured to engage in sales that would violate her non-compete that was openly discussed during the hiring phase. When she essentially said, "Sure, I have no problem breaking it as long as you put it in writing that you'll cover any legal fees" suddenly the new employer didn't think sales in that region were quite as important.

Ah, yes, this was 2018/19, in the Before Times, and I don't recall if PicoRV32 had compressed yet but I don't think it did.

SERV always looked intriguing, too. Though I recall maybe its build process was a hassle.

Anyways, this is neat, keep on keeping on! I'm just a software guy, so I remain amazed by the world at the gate level and what it can do. Entirely different kind of abstraction building.
Wish I could give this more than one upvote. Having worked on large (30+) teams sharing a single CSS/JS/HTML codebase, styled components is the only sane solution -- CSS seems like a simpler way to share styles when you have a few components, but when you have a few thousand it's way more important to isolate changes from each other. CSS in JS still allows for sharing of styles between components, but which styles and how they are shared must be explicitly wired up in JS instead of "cascading" (i.e. magically applying in lots of places). Again, this is a good thing.
No, he just anchored everyone at $20 so that $8 comes across as affordable. Business 101.
Raising this a level... I don't know if you can do this anymore, but a long time ago (like ~25 years ago) a couple I know lived at very low rent in houses that were for sale, but where the owner had already moved out.

They were typically very nice and very expensive houses where the realtor needed the house to be in showable condition at a moment's notice, so in exchange for under 25% market rate rent, they just had to make sure that the house was clean and be ready to leave within an hour if there was going to be a showing. Since the houses were pretty pricy and upscale, they tended to take a very long time to sell so they were usually there for quite a while.

Not quite what OP wants, but almost free housing is nothing to sneeze at.

> I personally feel the bar for copyrighting code should be considerably higher than 20 lines.

That highly depends on the lines of code.

One of my (now abandoned) open source react components essentially does some smarter-than-it-probably-should state management in just a handful of LOCs. At least a few hundred people found the clever solution I came up with useful enough to integrate into their own projects.

I've seen talented a graphics programmer hand optimize routines to gain significant speed boosts, speed boosts that helped save non-trivial amounts of system resources.

And where do you draw the line? That same gfx programmer optimized maybe a dozen functions, each less than 20 lines, but all quite independent of each other. The sum total of his work gave us a huge performance boost over everyone else in the field at the time.

And of course you also have super terse languages like APL, where non-trivial algorithms can easily be implemented in 20 LOC.

But let's move to another medium, the written word, also one of the less controversial aspects of copyright (ignoring the USA's penchant for indefinite extension of copyright)

Start with poems, plenty of artistically significant poems that come in under 20 lines, deserving of copyright for sure.

https://tinhouse.com/miracles-by-lucy-corin/

There is a short story, around 22 lines.

The problem is, it is complicated, which is why these are the types of things that get litigated all the time.

Heck as a profession we cannot even agree on what a line of code is. A LOC in Java is, IMHO, worse less than a LOC in JavaScript, and if you jump to embedded C, wow that is super terse, unless you count the thousands of lines of #defines describing pinouts and such, but domain knowledge is needed to know that those aren't "real" lines of code.
paul@recall.wiki
Absolutely agreed. As others have already pointed out, there is no underlying implication of preference to this kind of application architecture. Since we do run an actual DBaaS, one of our main internal goals in running these experiments was to specifically test our Global Routing Infrastructure, and construct a scenario that allowed us to help size specifically those components for capacity planning.

As long-time DBA's ourselves, we do as much as we can to educate and empower users to architect their applications wisely... but we still need to be prepared for the worst. As it turns out, Lambda was an easy way to accomplish that. :)

"Contact Us" is called value pricing in enterprise lingo. It means the price will reflect how much "value" the product will provide to your organization. If the product can provide $100M "value" for your company, they will be happy to charge you $10M for the product. That's why they need to talk to you, to find out how much "value" they can provide for you.

Please let’s not start dictating how people should use a piece of software. It would be like ”regulating” Microsoft Word just because people might use it to duplicate copyrighted works.
Classic peer-to-peer networks have low connectivity. Scale-free networks are resilient (most nodes don't matter), but are vulnerable to attack (kill a few "hubs").

DHTs (such as underlying Holochain) are scale-free, but also automatically heal from attacks.

Most importantly, they operate essentially unimpeded even in the face of successful network partitioning attacks.

All while each "agent" (You) retain complete cryptographic control of your data and identity.

And, if/when you want to migrate your data (exfiltrate), re-package the functionality (create new clients, or integrate multiple networks), or even completely fork the entire application -- all of this is at your fingertips, and no entity can stop you.
On AMD/Intel hardware, you can expect near-Apple levels of stability and polish on Wayland. Nvidia hardware is still getting brought up, but I'd totally recommend checking it out if you're interested.
It's true in a way but just pushes things back a level of causality: if we train more people as aerospace engineers, then we will have fewer trained people in other specialties. We have a finite supply of enthusiastic, smart young people to drive change. The best answer of course is "do both" and make sure more of our young people are happy, enthusiastic, and able to access necessary training and education.

There are also skills that overlap: every welder that SpaceX or Lockheed employs is one less welder able to help install a water treatment plant somewhere. Here again, the solution is to train more welders.
If you could export all your data to markdown files would that ease your hesitation?
That's not what a common carrier is. Section 230 doesn't define common carriers or hold common carriers not liable for their users' posts. It has nothing to do with common carriers. Please educate yourself.

Section 230 says to information service providers "We understand your users might say stupid shit from time to time. Since, unlike a newspaper that prints letters from the editor, you can't actually vet their blatherings in real time, you're off the hook for this stuff. As long as you take down anything illegal as soon as you find out. Otherwise you're free to curate these posts in any way your heart desires."

The law actually recognizes that internet platforms aren't like old media and accommodates their unique constraints.

If this shield didn't exist, information service providers would have the following options:

1. Hold all posts in a moderation queue, and publish them only after review.

2. Verify every signed-up user's identity and current address so that libel lawsuits or law enforcement can be referred to them.

3. Some combination of 1 and 2.

So do you wanna give Zuck a copy of your passport? Or wait 20 hours until your food pictures are posted? If neither of those sound appealing to you, Section 230 is a good thing.

Verified users are already boosted in replies and search. That's been the case for many years. The only change is that since verification will require payment, boosting will require that same payment. It's a complete non-story.

Correlation Between Stock-Market-Returns, GDP Growth and PE Ratios
Here (Canada) the courts almost always rule that the non-compete is unenforceable. The core issue is the rights of an individual to earn a living supersedes the rights of a corporation.

https://globalnews.ca/content/8363992/can-non-compete-clause...

"
The majority of non-compete clauses challenged in the judicial system have been rendered unenforceable. Canadian courts, in my experience, look unfavourably on clauses that restrict an individual’s ability to use their knowledge and experience to earn a living."

What companies here do falls into two general categories:

1) attempt to get people to sign and hope they don't know it is unenforceable.

2) pay people to stay at home and not-compete - Given this is expensive it doesnt happen often.
> and if there is gonna be a ministry of truth

You seem to be presupposing a 1984 outcome. Where is the evidence of that?
You're right that for purely custom solutions it's understandable, but a base price could often be made public for a lot of products and services that don't offer one. Certainly anyone asking for something special expects to have to negotiate on what that's going to cost them above the standard price.
And if you're paying for it, you're still the product.

Just a product with slightly less disposable income.
You don't let people be offended by it. There's no "offensive" reporting, only illegal content reporting. The people who want to post edgy things will go there. The immediate result is that every other area of discussion becomes less "violent and offensive." People who are offended in the garbage pile get told not to go to the garbage pile. The offenders however, get told to keep their garbage in the pile.

Nobody gets censored. Nobody gets offended (without ignoring the warnings.) The entire planet cools down.

I have no idea if it would work at Twitter's scale though.
I think you're spot on with this. Contact affects manners, and also gives opportunity for bad manners to be weeded out early.

Definitely not something that twenty minutes a day is enough for. And perhaps such a lack not only allows for bad patterns to emerge and fester, but also traumatizes the child. Modern city life, and its discontents, I guess.
“Contact Us” Pricing == Highly Variable Pricing. I personally see it as them inviting me to hear them out then waste some of their time before making a deal more along the lines of my price guidelines. Im about 50% success rate id say.

End of month reports are always a good time, End of quarter even better, Triple witching week is the best. Sometimes you get lucky and some middle-manager-muckity-muck is only $X thousands from the bonus target... and thats when you find your deals. Start early and be prepared to wait.

EDIT: yes, experiences vary, because the midsouth is a big place! For context my worst experiences were largely in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area. Maybe it was an Oklahoma thing, but in my experience Oklahoma is basically an appendage of Texas, a NJ to Texas's NY (please dont tell any Okies I said this).

I also saw some of this culture near Little Rock, Arkansas but nowhere near as bad, so yes, it varies.
"free as in speech, not as in beer"
I think you misunderstood what I was saying. Twitter wants its users to see the garbage content, that's what's driving engagement. I'm not saying users will refuse to self moderate, I'm saying twitter doesn't want them to.
What is a snippet manager? Like a fancy clipboard...?
This is the way. Parse, don't sanitize, and fail early. If 99% of traffic follows the pretty path, and most of the rest is actively hostile.
In a certain sense it feels like it's the right direction. But if you are essentially paying 8$/month how can you justify still displaying ads?

I guess what I am trying to say is that for 8$ every month you should be getting more than just a status symbol (which possibily not that many people care about anyway) and be stuck with ads.

Also, if Twitter is serious about creating a revenue stream for creators it should focus on creating valuable experiences for users that incentivize loyalty to the creators and not hand out verification status (which would become insignificant anyway if everyone has it).
