I've never met a "high performing employee" who is willing to work the kind of hours being demanded, especially to meet arbitrary deadlines. Frankly to high performers know their value and are far less likely to bow to this nonsense.
They obviously rewrite Twitter back to Python! Afterall, this shouldn’t take them more than a Sunday afternoon - or at least that’s what Elon gave them as the deadline.
You have yet again not posted a single source for your claims, in fact you haven’t posted a single source for any claim in this thread.

Your rambling multiple paragraph replies aren’t sources and won’t stop the fact that the world now knows that Russia tortures and rape civilians and children, and commits massacres and genocide in occupied territories.

This isn’t that surprising though as it’s not the first time the Russian army has decided to try and use civilian deaths and torture tactics as a method of war, Chechnya suffered similar horrors.

> Unless, it was the Ukranian nazis who committed it - as it appears to be - and they wanted to wait for the UK to get the HRC presidency to 'reveal' it.

I’m kinda interested how you square Wagner, the Russian nazi PMC that prides itself on torturing people and even have posted videos of them castrating Ukrainian solders with “nazi Ukrainians”.

There’s no proof of any of your claims and there never will be because none of it’s true.
What's this like on Google Cloud? Would you create a project to get into other projects and would that achieve most of what this achieves? And would you use a GSuite address so you don't log into the console just by logging into the email?
It really does look great, it’s managed to stick in my mind for more than an hour which is an excellent mark of a product that I really do want to have in my life.

Firebase was my thinking too, and without Documentation I have no way of knowing if the exported JSON is even remotely readable, let alone able to be converted into other formats like even just to markdown or html… and not having anything offline is just such a dealbreaker after months and months of magically always local and fast access to everything with my notes in Obsidian.

I’m going to be following it eagerly hoping they fix/change some of my dealbreakers.
Google’s new prototype AI tool does the writing for you
It's not just immigrants from Africa or those who share their racial identity, but its also, and probably more importantly, about the lineages who were kidnapped from Africa as slaves and their families who were stolen from for generations which left very little in their communities to pass to their present day ancestors. It's not good enough to have black faces in high places, because there are people who have been systemically destroyed and their visibility is being obscured by those who happen to look like them. We don't need to give even more opportunity to relatively wealthy African immigrants, some of whom hail from families who profited from American slavery.
From the original post it sounds like everyone is being required to work evenings and weekends. Doesn't sound like high performers are excepted from that.
For wealthy people, the listed income can be arbitrarily changed if there is a motivation to do so. If having low income benefits their kids admissions to Harvard, then this year the family business will issue no dividends and rather just loan money to the owners, and the CEO compensation will be temporarily adjusted to $30k/year.
There is an obvious solution which never gets discussed: re-draw the boundaries between the time zones a half hour or so, and stay on "standard time" all year. Move them further east, and sunrise and sunset are earlier by the clock for people who have been changed from one time zone to another; move them further west, the opposite. Follow state lines if you must, but probably better not to.
It also blows up the size of your git checkouts pretty fast though.

I don't think you really gain much either; vendoring was useful before modules, but now we have modules and go.sum I don't really see the advantage. If you have "github.com/foo/bar" specified at version 1.0.4 the go.sum will ensure you have EXACTLY that version or it will issue an error in case of any tomfoolery.
Underneath a Tesla, and I imagine other EVs with similarly located batteries, there is a titanium plate. It is there to prevent road debris from penetrating the batteries and starting a fire, but it is precisely the sort of thing people install to prevent catalytic converter theft.

This is setting aside a larger problem: If you're under a car nabbing a catalytic converter you can quickly cut it loose, grab it, and run. If you're under en EV and manage to break the battery pack loose after several hours work, your remains will be pinned to the ground under that car later when the police come to investigate. People won't be stealing batteries and leaving EVs stranded for the same reason they aren't stealing diesel truck motors and leaving the trucks stranded.
For many of us, getting stuff done requires real-time collaboration with our colleagues. Even in the software field, only a minority of jobs are primarily based on solo tasks that can be done at odd hours.
Nothing Musk allows Twitter to become will be worse than Tucker Carlson, and he has plenty of advertisers.

Advertisers pretend to have morals, but they go where eyeballs are in the end.
That scene killed me. Especially when Rick said "we got about 5 minutes before they're back and up in our ass."
Have you written anything public about your setup (and/or rationale)?
Is that point obvious? Perhaps the point is taking race completely out of the equation is going to descimatr Native American Latino and black attendance at Harvard. ~11% of white students will be be replaced by Asian students but the population will remain overwhelmingly white.

I think the ~1300 Asian students that didn’t get into Harvard from 2010-2015 that scored above white students that were admitted really suffered as a result of Harvards policies.

I am not convinced the new system is going to be any better for society in the long run. But Asian applicants to Harvard will likely be less victimized.
Setting a register to all ones by comparing with itself. Much less needed but I've done it a few times.
There's no google office where I live, but google maps will show detailed transit information including exactly where on its route the bus you are waiting for is.

There's an attribution saying the data is coming from the local metro provider, who has their own interface for accessing the same data, but having it in google maps is nice as it integrates well with other navigation.

So I would say it comes down more to who has partnered with google to make the data more accessible.

Maybe more anecdotal, but I have had great mileage with google maps for navigation while driving too. The government department for land information does make almost all GIS data publicly available which probably helps too.
Your comment didn't say anything about "gym and leather". But the nudge-nudge-wink-winkiness of "peculiar set of interests, and I don't mean [whatever]" was guaranteed to set some people off.

The word 'trolling' is more useful in terms of effects, not intent. (That's why I linked to https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...). Most of the posts that troll people, in the sense of triggering them into thread derailery, aren't intentional trolling—but they might as well be, because of their effects.

The current thread is an example. You posted 10 (!) comments touching on sexuality and sexual identity in some vague insinuating way that no one understood because you didn't clarify it, and then when you predictably got a range of bewildered and/or angry responses, you fueled it by posting more of the same, acting like you had said nothing provocative and the reactions were everyone else's problem. All of this was already offtopic and then you started a whole other "I'm just asking" provocation about drag queen shows, heaven help us.

Perhaps this was all an innocent communication failure despite perfectly benign intent, but from a moderation point of view it doesn't matter, because the effects are the same as if you were deliberately trolling. As a moderator I can't observe your intent but I can observe these effects, and since what I care about (qua moderator) is the themselves, it makes sense to moderate based on what is observable.

Btw, I don't discount that your intent might have been benign, because comments depend on context. If the context is
an in-person conversation between friends (i.e. people who already trust each other), slight provocations on touchy topics can just be normal playful interaction. But when you're broadcasting to thousands of people, which is what you're doing when commenting on HN, that's entirely different. You can't presuppose a high-trust audience that takes your benign intent for granted. On the contrary: you can expect a large, diverse spectrum of hearers, none of whom know you from Adam nor have any reason to trust your intent. In that context, the trollish effect of your comments was predictable. The same statement ends up having a very different meaning because of the context switch.

People sometimes get confused about this because commenting on HN feels like an intimate conversation, when in fact it's public broadcasting. If you go by that feeling, it's easy to end up playing by the wrong set of rules and then wonder why you get such harsh reactions. And of course we want HN to feel like an intimate conversation—that's one of the best things about it—but at the same time commenters need to learn how to post in a way that has good effects, not bad, and in that sense this flamewar was indeed your "fault".
They should also care that their society remains well structured because it increases the probability that their own situation improves over the course of their life, and that their children/grandkids will be wealthy.

Are you calling USA "well structured"? Socialist European nations have much more income mobility than USA has. Few are threatened with penury, most employers pay a living wage, and many more people who have a great idea and the will to build it, do so.

Adolescents are only "children" in the modern social sense. Young children don't have that shift, and sunlight is important for them: https://parentingscience.com/kids-need-daylight/
I have a lingering suspicion it was the astronauts. All of those pilots wanting to be in charge of the ship, in an age where is was hard enough to get a computer to do the work without having to cooperate with a human.

A lot of the stuff SpaceX has been able to do is down to automated systems. Maybe we would have had rockets that could land in the late 80’s if that turf war had gone the other way.
I'm not sure why, I think every instance of Discourse seems exactly the same, and in a way this uniformity is getting overbearing. In the ages past different forums, even running on essentially the same software stack like phpBB, had different look and feel that you can see at the first glance. Even though Discourse is not centralized like Reddit, it gives off a similar feeling of sterile-ness.
So you're telling me that if your current job told you to do 12 hour work days 7 days a week, you'd leap right on that because it's inspiring?
I've always had a great time on psilocybin but never had a grand realization.
If by "record" they mean "write down what is said" then they wouldn't specifically be suggesting finding a colleague in a single-party consent state.

Because "writing stuff down" isn't prohibited in any state.

From a usage standpoint, you're probably correct (I honestly don't know) -- I only use it to generate web server certificates.
Well, those folks had to spend a few years planning, take flying lessons, dry run everything a few times, and then pull off the most complicated and coordinated terrorist attack in US history.

The actual bomb planning for the Oklahoma City bombing was less than a year and involved two people. So, seems like the bar was raised quite a bit.
Why was property crime much higher back then? We’re at historic lows.

> I wonder if that's related in any way to it also relatively common to straight-pipe in Texas.

No emissions, low state taxes, low fuel price, and abysmally little to no self awareness about climate change is a better explanation.

FL is still the best way to get around smog stuff in the US because of inherit corruption, you an register anything if you have the money: see Motorex sandal And tis is despite Hawaii being closer to Japan and also not having emissions and regular departures to Long Beach.
> That's why it has mostly rich kids but also a few poor ones to make it look like it's an egalitarian place.

The way I see it, the admissions design goal for prestigious universities is to ensure that the smartest students in the country and the richest students in the country get the same indistinguishable diploma - their diploma - and that way they sustain and reinforce both their prestige and funding.
I don't know about the other numbers, but my wife has had two scheduled c-sections and the recovery for both suuucked when compared to everyone we know that had natural birth.

Of course, the process of going through labor pains for many hours might make things even between the two...
There's a deficit of 600,000 residential units.
Really? I'm pretty sure I have the tools in my garage to steal 4 wheels with locking nuts. I'm absolutely certain I couldn't steal the battery in my EV without stealing the whole EV. Which has a GPS tracker built into it.
Another options is "nsjail". I landed on it having considered at firejail, apparmour, selinux, bubblewrap.

You think half of Twitter's engineers aren't just bad, they are dead weight. And there was no performance evaluation system in place to get rid of them? Come on. That's an outrageous claim without any evidence.

Presumably neither of you since in this straw-man neither party has done anything wrong
Capital is used here as a euphemism for land ownership. Net worth being mathematical inference of how well land owner “capitalizes” on the possession of land.

Other asset classes came along because, well, useful land is finite, and to create new wealth holders to act as missionaries for the US dollar. “Yeah even this trash is worth money in the US!”

Valuations are arbitrary numerical assessments based upon the whims of the assessors (assignment of currency value to stuff is a social tradition; there is no science that suggests the universe values any bit of itself what with entropy ripping the universes stuff apart), and routinely inflated to validate investors past decision to “buy into” Murica.

Biology being largely unchanged in centuries (in a meaningful way given the context here), the issues in our culture can easily be assigned to political corruption as usual. All the high talk about separation of powers is laughable as DC pols rub elbows at private social events, discussing not systemic change for the public benefit but how to veil graft as justifiable given their intimate connection to our political norms.

Simple really. Most white collar crime is still the same old “deflect, project, until we can change the rules” as policing is conveniently unfunded.

The mathematical gap between classes must be maintained! Or Sauron himself will emerge from the lava of Mt Doom or some shit.

I say we post up at home, stop going to work except to maintain our communities locally, make Jamie Dimon and co knock on every door in the US looking for rent. But I’m weird that way. Except for 2A, I really lean into progressive doctrine, which often aligns with conservative doctrine but media intentionally stokes this stupid culture war to obfuscate it.
commit, go ultrawide curved
Isn't that already baked in with the ability to choose which accounts you follow? I'm not sure, I haven't used Twitter in a long time, so maybe they made it like Facebook where they put stuff into your feed that you don't follow.
If that was the shift I was working, what choice would I have?
The Supreme Court is not deciding anything with regard to sex-based discrimination right now. I would be surprised if it even mentioned anything in dicta (non-binding comments not necessary to the holding) about this topic.

Also, if/when the question comes up, there is a different standard for sex-based discrimination than race-based. The former is subject to intermediate scrutiny, whereas the latter is subject (in general) to strict scrutiny.

So it is plausible that the Court would determine that some sex-based discrimination is acceptable, and simultaneously determine that no race-based discrimination is acceptable.
IMHO

I see HN is no reason. Innovations? No. Freedom? No. Not fair competition? Yes

You need parties you trust auditing all the code and each change, before you run it.
Yeah, it's very weird how this person keeps posting obsessively about how glad Twitter employees are to see their colleagues fired.

I'm not sure what the problem is here, but that kind of behavior does make me suspect they're that obnoxious coworker we've all had who's deeply unpopular and doesn't even realize it.
You are missing a key point: scale of lay offs.

Of course an employer can pull this off for a handful of employees, but not for a significant percentage of their workforce.

If your claim was right, no employer would had paid severance for layoffs. They would just give a cause to every one laid off. Not that hard to come up with bs metrics.
We will see the return of capital investment on a massive scale
Huh. I guess your attitude isn't shared by the two plus million people a year, who literally risk life and limb crossing our boarders, for a shot at being an undocumented alien.
I wouldn't say "intrinsically better". I have no idea what the One True Distribution Format looks like. I'd say at this point OS-level packaging provides more options and integrates better with the wider software ecosystem.

But let me ask you this: how often do you see:

FROM ubuntu:latest

RUN apt-get -y update && apt-get -y install ...

or the moral equivalent from a different distro?

And do you ever consider the idea of your stuff being incorporated into some other container?
I think it is the labor market. Pandemic caused a lot of people to leave the labor market.
Lol few years ago I got LBJ's from local library and made sincere effort to read through - it was humongous. I could not carry on after a week.
I agree that it denotes an imbalance.

I also agree that terms like "white privilege" are intended as criticism. However I don't see them as criticism of the individual who has the privilege, but rather of the society whose circumstances gave them that privilege. The term is an attempt to promote systems thinking.

My big interest these days tends to lie in high-performance code (minimizing latency if necessary), but coming from a theoretical/computational physics background, I can rapidly pick up anything with a mathematical or scientific computing bent to it. I have an interest in Haskell, but realistically I'm not up to snuff yet to try for a job doing it.
Why does it have to add anything to my life? Why be the third person to climb a mountain?

I hear tell of a 19th century English gentleman who manually recorded the level of rain water and the barometric pressure in his garden, a dozen times a day, including the wee hours of the morning, waking up several times a night as though afflicted with the worst UTI possible, through all weathers, all seasons, all ills, all trials and travails, any and all privations that life could send his way, and did so for 40+ years. Obssessively and compulsively some would say. Or we may say diligently if being generous. I am sure that at some point someone asked "why do you do this? what do you feel it adds to your life?"

Because I can. And because I want to.
"fraudulently" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. "Fraud" as a crime has a high bar.

I understand that you want things to be a certain way. But you can't just make stuff up and expect others to accept it.

> Por que no los dos?

Which political party repealed net neutrality? Which political party's supporters also strongly dislike Section 230? We ain't gettin' "los dos" - what's Spanish for "neither"?
Alternatively, a reasonable medical system might err on the side of a few more not entirely necessary C-sections as opposed to more not entirely necessary maternal and baby deaths.

As a legacy of upright locomotion balanced with large cranium size and infant helplessness, humans have ended up with an objectively poor design for giving birth to offspring. Death during that process is “natural”.

I'm on guard for overreah all the time, but I'm OK with showing ID to buy alcohol, drive a car, fly on a plane, sell items that should rarely be done in bulk outside of rare conditions, like a bunch of catalytic converters.
Moderation is different from censorship
Yeah right. With Musks level of credibility, I wouldn’t hold your breath on him releasing this “evidence”.
I grant you, it is a confusing time line, but let me clear this up. Cree sold its consumer lighting products business (think LED light bulbs with "Cree" stamped on them) to Ideal Industries. Then, as the company expanded into other semiconductor areas, they rebranded as Wolfspeed. Finally, Wolfspeed sold the LED components division (think tiny LED chips that go into products) to SGH, effectively spinning it off as a new company called "Cree-LED".
Twice as fast is a big deal for damn near any program except like...unimportant, already slow background tasks or things that are already exceptionally fast. Cutting the frame render time in half could give you twice the framerate. Twice the performance on a server could let you handle twice as many concurrent sessions (and possible run half as many servers!). People regularly fight tooth and nail to squeeze 10% performance boosts on critical tasks, doubling it would be incredible
A democracy that defines itself so narrowly as to exclude most people isn't a democracy, it's an oligarchy.
Can we just stop with these bullshit word games? I'm so tired.

Describing a form of legal discrimination (in this case, affirmative action) as "racial discrimination" is not an argument. Or even an invitation to discussion.

There are major problems with policies like affirmative action. But smirking and saying "But... but you said racial discrimination is BAD! But then you DO THE RACIAL DISCRIMINATION. So YOU BAD!" is so tiresome.
