And bad behavior gets rewarded with engagement. We learned this from "reality television" where the more conflict there was among a group of people the more popular that show was. (Leading to producers abandoning the purity of being unscripted in the pursuit of better ratings.) A popular pastime on Reddit is posting someone behaving badly (whether on another site, a subreddit, or in a live video) for the purpose of mocking them.

When the organizational goal is to increase engagement, which will be the case wherever there are advertisers, inevitably bad behavior will grow more frequent than good behavior. Attempts to moderate toward good behavior will be abandoned in favor of better metrics. Or the site will stagnate under the weight of the new rules.

In this I'm in disagreement with Yishan because in those posts I read that engagement feedback is a characteristic of old media (newspapers, television) and social media tries to avoid that. The OP seems to be saying that online moderation is an attempt to minimize controversial engagement because platforms don't like that. I don't believe it. I think social media loves controversial engagement just as much as the old-school "if it bleeds, it leads" journalists from television and newspapers. What they don't want is the (quote/unquote) wrong kind of controversies. Which is to say, what defines bad behavior is not universally agreed upon. The threshold for what constitutes bad behavior will be different depending on who's doing the moderating. As a result the content seen will be influenced by the moderation, even if said moderation is being done in a content-neutral way.

And I just now realize that I've taken a long trip around to come to the conclusion that the medium is the message. I guess we can now say the moderation is the message.

Uncertainty is important in general but right here right now I’ll take it.
I wonder if they'll force their Netflix produced shows to be structured like network TV ones where optimal moments are created for ad placement.

Ads otherwise are extremely jarring.
Hi, dang! I wonder if it makes sense to add a summarized version of your critical point on "effects, not intent" to the HN guidelines. Though, I fear there might be undesirable ill effects of spelling it out that way.

Thanks (an understatement!) for this enlightening explanation.
Hardly.

The old mackbook strategy
To me, this action speaks of the continued fall of Netflix. If their content can't support them with subscriptions, it probably won't support them with subscriptions plus intrusive brain worms, err, ads. This is a pattern seen all the time in gaming - a subscription service downgrades to F2P, then a vast majority of them go away.

The differences between the successes and failures comes down to content, not business models. And Netflix' content is very thin for my tastes.
That is not true. Multiple Stripe customers have layoff due to slow down revenue growth themselves.

For example, Lyft is laying off people today.

The actual effect of the sanctions is at a level somewhat higher than the Jones act has on Puerto Rico.

1. They forbid ships from docking at Cuba and then in the US (same as puerto rico)

2. They also forbid US companies from dealing with Cuba (worse impact than Puerto Rico)

I think the sanctions are far less of a big deal than detractors say: Cuba's overwhelming issues are its domestic issues. But, the sanctions aren't nothing, unless you think Jones act restrictions don't hurt Puerto Rico or that banning all US trade with Puerto Rico wouldn't hurt it.
Well, yes. They all have to become long-term profitable, so that's how it works.

You can't really complain, though. It was nice to have better-quality content for cheap while it lasted, so we can just appreciate that. But now you actually have to pay what things are worth. I don't see the problem.
What would "insourced" mean exactly? Cheap remote domestic hires?

Then I looked at their three initial investments and realized that's not exactly what they are going for, at least not right now. But for the future of the web and firefox, Mozilla needs to be more than self sufficient and this is a good way to work towards that.

I'm mixed as to the recent moves by them, but at least they aren't doing nothing.

IIRC, np was the norm for many years and it just didn't actually change anything. Oodles of people do get banned from SRD for commenting in linked threads. The easiest way to see this is when month+ old threads get linked. Only the admins can see downvoting patterns.

Is simply linking to other threads on reddit sufficient for you to consider something promoting brigading?

Three years with literally not changes is pretty stable in the fronted world.

Even if a new version with breaking changes would arrive tomorrow you could still keep using the version of Elm that worked fine for years. Really no issue.

Look at the chart you linked to - the fed raised rates from effectively 0 to ~2.4% over 3+ years from 2016-2019. That has absolutely nothing in common with what's happening right now, where the fed went from 0.3 in April to ~3% today.

Why would I look outside? That's how you find out the weather.

I looked at the data. US GDP growth was positive in the third quarter. Unemployment is at record lows.

Again, there are headwinds. Inflation is high and as a result consumer confidence is low. That's bad. But the only people crying "recession" are people paying too much attention to the stock market. The real story is far more complex, and there's very little sign of a broad based economic slowdown.

Would you care to provide the data you're using to back up your claims?
What I got from similar subreddits (e.g. /r/bestoflegaladvice) is that you'll get (shaddow)banned really fast if you click a link in the subreddit and coment on the linked post.

Just mentioning this because I agree with the point you make (in general).
The problem with Twitter and Youtube, at least for me, is that they apply double standards so blatantly. I mean, how can you keep for years Khamenei's tweets that called for "eradicating" a people, while banning an account just because "language is violence"?

I predict all art on the web will soon include a tag that says "Permission is not granted to use this image to train an AI algorithm". Perhaps something similar also as a general legal notice for all content on all web sites. Stenography will be used to enforce this. If you find your stenographic tag in an AI generated image you sue.
> > If you had used tabs, changing the tab size would make it align all wrong.

I believe the post you're replying to meant "used more tabs". That is, if you used any tabs beyond the code indentation, they would get altered when you change the indentation size and ruin the alignment.

This reminded me about obe interview I had a year ago related to environments management in IaC.

The Senior Architect that interviewed me asked a question about correct infrastructure state management giving as an example their current infrastructure, giving me a hint that number of environments will grow expenentionally.

Ive shortly explained to him that the architecture they chose will be really hard to maintain when the numbers of environments grow past single digit numbers and a better approach would be to store the state per part of environment.

He got really mad at me for pointing that out (on the meeting were also other ppl) and tried to force me to chose the same approach as he did. I refused and proposed IMHO a better solution.

Long story short - did not get this job. So yes, sometimes ppl will dump you because you are overqualified and not only underqualified.
Absolutely, and it would be great if there was OS support here.

TCP processing can be also offloaded to network cards today, so the same might need to happen for QUIC to be similarly efficient.
On day 0, this probably doesn't affect most folks here. The option to not have ads remains, and thus far at the same-ish price, hand-waving preexisting upward adjustments.

Most of the brouhaha around this will be pricing-related: will Netflix use this to boost their prices???? Will I have to pay more??????

I dunno. Maybe. Doesn't seem unlikely. I don't really care, though, to be honest. $5 a month doesn't make a huge difference.

What concerns me is that this changes Netflix's incentive structure. Prior to this change, Netflix had one customer base: the viewers. So content was produced with the primary goal of making the viewers happy, enough so to continue paying them month over month.

Now, the shift is towards also having another customer base: advertising buyers. Will they have direct input into what content is produced? If not direct, will they have the right of refusal, or pressure? "We won't put our ads next to that" will likely reduce the amount of "that" being produced. Additionally, since ads are shown per time block, this adds an incentive to produce content that takes longer to watch rather than content that you can enjoy in concentration.
Your point doesn't contradict mine though.

It is a bad idea for the company to do voluntary layoff.

Your point focuses entirely on what is good for employees, which is unrealistic. Companies do what is good for themselves, not employees. Sometimes they overlap, but sometimes they don't.
Brigading absolutely happens in SRD. We can talk about whether this style of content should exist, but it does not "exist with the explicit purpose of brigading other subs."
Hey Government, we did interview 100 people for our 20 job listings, but we didn't like any of them. The listings are still open though. Jobs numbers are still strong! Teehee!
Thank you. So let me see if I get it correct.

thing effect on plasma insulin gut result

glucose baseline increase standard

g+sucralose increase less than baseline altered

g+stevia baseline increase altered

g+aspartame baseline increase altered

So since there was lower than baseline increase in the g+sucralose group, we can conclude that the sucralose is blunting the response that the glucose would have caused.

So, in this context, that means we got increased blood sugar because of the lower plasma insulin? Okay. I think I understand now.
This is nonsense. You want to muzzle a hard worker because you think the rest of the workforce will not match up? What I count is the output, not if people are working evenings and nights or during the workday. Work output is capped by what I require so I hold all the cards and I’ll pay the guy who wants to work more.

I did not see any mention of structure.

Reddit has a different structure than Twitter. In fact, go back to before Slashdot and Digg and the common (HN, Reddit) format of drive-by commenting was simply not a thing. Usenet conversations would take place over the course of days, weeks, or even months.

Business rules. Twitter is driven by engagement. Twitter is practically the birthplace of the "hot take". It's what drives a lot of users to the site and keeps them there. How do you control the temper of a site when your goal is inflammatory to begin with?

Trust and Good Faith. When you enter into a legal contract, both you and the party you are forming a contract with are expected to operate in good faith. You are signaling your intent is to be fair and honest and to uphold the terms of the contract. Now, the elephant in the room here is what happens when the CEO, Elon Musk, could arguably (Matt Levine has done so, wonderfully) not even demonstrate good faith during the purchase of Twitter, itself. Or has been a known bully to Bill Gates regarding his weight or sex appeal, or simply enjoys trolling with conspiracy theories. What does a moderation system even mean in the context of a private corporation owned by such a person? Will moderation apply to Elon? If not, then how is trust established?

There is a lot to talk about on that last point. In the late '90s a site called Advogato[1] was created to explore trust metrics. It was not terribly successful, but it was an interesting time in moderation. Slashdot was also doing what they could. But then it all stopped with the rise of corporate forums. Corporate forums, such as Reddit, Twitter, or Facebook, seem to have no interest in these sorts of things. Their interest is in conflict: they need to onboard as many eyeballs as possible, as quickly as possible, and with as little user friction as possible. They also serve advertisers, who, you could argue, are the real arbiters of what can be said on a site.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advogato
I think the key is that no moderation can withstand outside pressure. A community can be entirely consistent and happy but the moment outside pressure is applied it folds or falls.

It might just be an effect of the medium.
The default configurations for Create-React-App and others use babel for type stripping today.

This seems to me like a great "win" for Typescript that so many tools just natively handle TS type stripping and that so much Typescript today only needs type stripping and doesn't need other parts of TS emit processes (or tslib).
The term homeless in California is mostly a politically expedient mislabeling.

Most of the homeless are drug addicts that are not able to maintain a job or pay for car insurance. They aren't going to be able to pay rent.

Recognizing this ends up turning this into a way harder problem, with extremely divergent suggested solutions.

Instead people work on the easier problem of housing people, that at least is solvable, and that most people can agree on, even if it absolutely doesn't solve the actual problems of the drug addicts (that are being called homeless because that's nicer to think about and easier to work on).

(Agreed about tax dollars should not be spent building in flood plains.)

Unfortunately this is antithetical to the advertising-based revenue model these sites operate on. There's no incentive for the site to relinquish their control over what you see and return it to the user.

On an anecdotal level, the fraction of tweets in my feed that are "recommended topics" or "liked by people I follow" or simply "promoted" has risen astronomically over the past few months. I have a pretty curated list of follows (~100), I had the "show me tweets in chronological order" box checked back when that was an option, and the signal to noise ratio has still become overwhelmingly unusable.

TeX output is not perfect. There is no baseline grid for example. Like this: https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/49720/body...

> I wonder if EU would let UK join without adopting the Euro. The UK seems to have lost a lot of its negotiating power that let them keep the GBP the first time.

If the UK rejoined (assuming it was welcome after the last few years) I find myself wondering if forcing us (I'm British) to go all the way - into the Euro and onwards to full participation in everything - might actually be a good idea.

There are some aspects which taken in isolation may not be that great an idea (eg a Euro which includes such a variety of economies), but contrast that with the last approx half century where we've been the wall-fly. The one who goes to the dance, but hangs around the edges and never really joins in.

Half-hearted commitment can often be worse than none at all, and being forced to commit fully in order to be able to rejoin may well be the making of a better UK that takes it seriously and helps drive things forward.

Possibly.
"Let them go" is itself a euphemism, in that if it is taken literally, it presumes "they" _would_ go if "let". The active party making an intentional choice describes their actions in a way that places agency with everyone else.
