No, I don't have to do that at all, I can in fact use the standard unix way of making a process not terminate on SIGHUP by telling it to ignore SIGHUP.

SIGHUP is not a signal to shut down, it's a signal that says the controlling terminal is gone. The action taken by the process at that point is the decision of the process and the user that launched it, not the init system. This is exactly what it is for.

Changing that without understanding what people used it for across UNIX vendors for decades, was dumb. And it showed off just how little the writers of the service knew about how users actually use their systems. Huge red flag.

It's not just random long-running batch jobs it killed either, it seems that it would kill all sorts of useful stuff people run for reliability. The irony of the init system killing screen/tmux sessions which people run specifically to keep their shell going in case of a disconnect!
Very curious to revisit this in a few months.
It would cost 10x as much and would be 5 years behind schedule, intended to be the main vehicle for several decades (rather than soon to be replaced by an even more capable vehicle), entirely expendable, still stuck to its original parameters due to risk averseness and not at all commercially competitive. See: SLS, Space Shuttle (and to a lesser extent, Ariane 5 & 6)

Falcon reusability was perfected through lots of explosions in landing attempts, good luck getting NASA or ESA to risk that given how dumb the average taxpayer can be about iterative development like that.

All the problems you listed can be solved though. In fact, HN is a good demonstration of it. Its policy decisions have largely led to one of the last bastions on the internet that still seem sane.

The issue is how a social media product can solve the problems above and be a growing, profitable company. HN does not have a direct profit motive nor does it need to grow exponentially to satisfy investors.

Personally I don’t believe it’s possible because as long as engagement is optimized, extremity will always be preferred.
Signal designs their server infrastructure to be trustless, and their clients to be open source. So the only thing that would leak if the US were wiretapping Signal servers, is metadata.

The number of deaths divided by the number of Americans. The phrase "average American" is shorthand for "statistically across all Americans".
I disagree. Your points aren't necessarily wrong, but they ignore one big factor. Twitter chooses what content to promote to people.

I could use Twitter quite happily not knowing about the latest "scandal" in, say, the knitting world. But Twitter actively promotes that content to me - either with the "trending" sidebar or by showing me content that it thinks will increase my engagement.

That is a technical problem. How do you surface engaging content without also surfacing harmful / polarising / abusive content?

If a specific Tweet got a million likes, a "neutral" algorithm might choose to promote it. But unless that algorithm knows that the Tweet is deliberately inflammatory, it can't choose to de-prioritise it.

So, yes, there is a problem with human nature. But it is being exacerbated by deliberate technical and policy choices.
I used to agree with you until I created a new Twitter account from scratch.

I'm not American and I specifically put non-political things in my interests. Yet, the second I signed up I got the following:

1. A notification about a smug reply a rando made to a Republican Congressman.

2. Posts from a meme page with a Pepe the frog avatar showing homeless people fighting in San Francisco.

3. Somebody I don't follow accusing another person I don't follow of being a nazi.

The problem with Twitter is that it needs high engagement, so it strongly recommends posts that are low on quality but high on emotion. This gets people to post the most smug and controversial takes they can handle.

I recommend everyone creating a new social media account every once in a while to see what the rest of the world see. It's as enlightening as browsing the internet with Adblock disabled.

Turnover is a business issue, and if you want to show it is a problem, then you need to demonstrate the negative affect it is having on business objectives. If you could show that it was costing the business more to rehire/train new people than it would cost to give higher wages or make org changes so that there was higher retention, then those arguments tend to be effective in my experience.

> No amount of algorithms can improve human behavior on any platform

Humans aren't yet computers, so algorithms are (obviously) not directly relevant to them.

But in the general sense, that clam is wrong. Human behavior is amenable to rules, incentives and social pressure, and technical tools have found a role in shaping that since the dawn of civilization. From simple technology such as voting down to the most oppressive algorithmic surveillance state, algorithms can be used to influence and control human behavior or enforce rules.
I think the push for "collaboration" is mostly out of interest for the company. They want people to be easily replaceable (for good and bad reasons), which is easier when several people work on the same thing. They also want people to share resources so that they don't have to spend as much, open floor plans are a great example: they are simply cheaper than offices.

Subreddits solve I think the big problem of twitter, namely political flamebait leaking everywhere. Compartmentalize and quarantine that stuff and maybe you can get a healthy message board going, but I think people will never be as open and naive as they were in the early days of twitter / FB again.
resources, be they "good will", "mind share", or good old fashioned money, are not infinite.

when you earn money today, it comes from somewhere. if you optimize for money acquisition rate, you start pulling from not only different places, but different times.

If I say "screw it" and impulsively buy a new sports car today, I won't have money to buy the much better car I want next year. Today's itch is scratched, and I can report to my family that we have a new car. (I have optimized for the short term.)

Later, I can sell the car I bought today, but I won't get what I paid, and because of that, I can't get the car I had planned on getting, which is not only a much better value, but is perfect for my family and its needs. I take from my bank account in the future to get what I want today. Said another way, I have less in my bank account in a year because I jumped the gun today.

This is what I mean when I say that optimizing for today borrows from the future. Your resources in the future are more limited because you optimized for the short term when you made an important decision. Optimizing for the short term pulls those rewards you are getting from somewhere, and unless you are stealing, you're pull those rewards from your future self.

Optimizing for the longer term can indeed also reward in the short term, and I'm not talking about anything like that. I'm talking about making decisions where your only decision criteria is what you want right now. This is, to me, what Apple's now-suspended decision to allow gambling advertisements REEKED of. It just stank of "we could have more money right now and improve our quarterly numbers if we let people do this" and is classic business optimization of the short-term.

> It's more of a personal, interpersonal and a social problem which needs extensive research, surveys to find the "why" and how we might be able to fix it or avoid it from happening again.

You are right about it not being a technology problem, but what you are describing there is how you approach a technical problem.

You are never going to solve it that way. In fact it might never be solved, because the issue is politics, it’s people intentionally wanting to game the systems to influence masses and get their way.

No amount of research and surveys to “find the why” will allow you to “fix” it or “avoid it from happening again”.
Claiming something is a monopoly provides gravitas to an argument, at the high cost of the inevitable semantic dithering of how to define one.

>is something wrong with me as well?

Nah. It was just a very naive talk. Highly intelligent people without a philosophical education are prone to going off on these tangents where they independently rediscover ancient concepts through modern analogies in a roundabout half-baked way, and start thinking of themselves as gurus.

What a proper study of philosophy teaches you is that you cannot, and will not ever, have a truly novel thought. It's all been said. And if you do happen to have one, it will be the result of an incredible dedicated effort and take a lifetime of work to prove it, building on the work of others. Not an hour long TED talk.

I think I'm of the same mentality. IMO a lot of the comments here are histrionics that they misrepresented (and outright lied in some cases) the gap in efficiency of their tool. But it's still somewhat better than the existing tooling. All of this also has very little to do with Vercel as a product which is still pretty good and can run almost anything without needing to use their framework NextJS. I don't use Vercel myself and am perfectly content with Netlify which does what I need and more but I don't think any of this dissuades me from using Vercel

Vercel simply has a lot of VC funding and is using marketing to sell their tooling and their platform. It's not unique to them, nor is it particularly egregious especially when Evan You himself clearly admits Turbopack is, in fact, slightly more performant than Vite. They lied about some benchmarks. Very dumb of them. I will move on and will not really avoid Vercel unless I have much more immediate concerns like their pricing or other ethics concerns that have more drastic effects

When I, in the distant past, thought about checking T., it was because some specific great minds had approached it: I checked it on the idea to consult the statements from specific prestigious Intellectuals - not random posts.

And: the replying poster has not provided a speckle of a justification for the "bohemian" idea proposed.

The platform that the submitter proposed for discussion reportedly has an extraordinary participation of leaders, ministers, politicians and official speakers.

> You forgot the above losses.

200Wh is about a 20% estimation-factor on top of the commonly claimed 160Wh/km for a tesla. This accounts for any losses from charger to battery. Losses past that point are irrelevant because the point of measurement is battery drain per km. Differences between the test protocol and real world should be mirrored in the econobox stats. Emissions figures were commonly quoted per kWh at the wall socket.

> Not at all. By your (very optimistic) calculations, they are about the same. You'll never pay off the CO2 debt of manufacturing the EV battery, let alone start averting the climate catastrophe!

Precisely my point? I'm asserting that a city-car econobox has better marginal per km emissions than a luxury sports EV. A cayanne will have about 4-6x the emissions as the econobox and that comparison will favour the tesla. Also please do point out where they were optimistic -- there are very few ICEs that get 50g/km?

EV makers play sleight of hand by eliminating the segment of small light cars that can get you two cities over, then claiming their replacement in the form of a luxury performance car is 'better' by comparing it to luxury performance SUVs.

> Not at all. By your (very optimistic) calculations, they are about the same. You'll never pay off the CO2 debt of manufacturing the EV battery, let alone start averting the climate catastrophe!

This isn't as much as you think, most of the industry isn't using NMC anymore and there's less of the expensive materials per cell even compared to earlier LFP variants. If you're not insisting on obscene power densities and range you'll never use then 30kWh of LFP batteries has GHG impact commensurable with a few thousand km of usage of either the econobox or the coal powered luxury EV -- it doesn't take much to tip the balance. Similarly you can use motors without scarce metals.

> Very true. Weird that all of the currently-pushed solutions involve large and expensive EVs that barely do any good.

Because EVs are here to save the car industry not the planet. Although they do have one positive externality: a bunch of people willing to pay $500-1000/kWh allowed for the development of the battery industry where doing it to reduce emissions would have never happened.

Certain parts of non-US twitter were "polarized" enough to start the Arab Spring, the Orange Revolution in Ukraine (leading to its current situation), and it seems that through social media of some sort Iran is currently undergoing a revolt against its own morality police.

> I just want a spot I can keep tabs on the broader goings on of other people in infosec.

I think this is the problem Twitter/Musk has - Twitter isn't one product but a million. Just about every user has their own way of using Twitter - from finding out about what's goings on in some niche (work, sport, hobby), seeing what celebrities are doing, asking their community questions, discussing politics, finding out news, promoting their newsletter, podcast, crypto scam or product, or growing their twitter followers.

Anything that makes the way people use twitter less optimal is going to piss off substantial numbers of users.
HN is industry specific. It very much has reach the masses, but only within a specific trait. It functions more like a trade union’s social media.

The idea that working for Microsoft is something dirty that should be shunned for open source just doesn't make practical sense.

It's a fair question whether 'public' for a person should mean ten people, or three hundred, or three million. In practical terms people can't cope with a public square the size of a million. It's too big. The range of possible 'people I'm sharing my public square with' is too great to manage.
