> Twitter was a unique spot where journalists, celebrities, titans of industries, your family, friends and co-workers, would join a daily mosh pit filled with a mix of truly important cultural moments and the most inane things you’ve ever seen.

It’s a toxic pit where people with boosted self-importance exchange silly reactions and replies, with no meaningful conversation whatsoever.
Firstly, it’s a pleasure to meet someone as informed in the current debates across the helping professions as you are.

As a coaching psychologist and a member of Shimmer team, I should firstly confirm that we work in close alliance with the other helping professions in the clinical and psychotherapeutic space and we understand each other’s limitations.

And while each of the helping professions pay attention to the outcomes and skills, ADHD coaching we do at Shimmer is characterised by the relentless focus on the future vision, goals and tactics to help the ADHD folk get there. Think regular coaching supercharged by the power of prospective psychology, coaching psychology, health psychology and neuro-developmental perspectives.

We all stand on the shoulders of helping professions’ giants, but our focal areas are different. And considering the time limits involved in helping, the focal areas do matter.
They might still technically be employed and receiving paychecks for 60 days to keep this legal.
The layoffs are happening today and they have already sued?
Put aside other aspects, but doesn't just the proper paperwork to sue take more time?
Oh! Your hypothesis makes a lot of sense to me, so I appreciate you risking the downvotes. I missed the ADHD over-diagnosis and that TikTok self-diagnosis stuff by a generation, but seen through that lens, I could imagine people are tired of exploitative fad-chasers in this space. I have recently talked with a couple of adults who were only recently diagnosed with ADHD and it sounded enlightening/clarifying for them, so that’s the lens through which I initially read this.
I don't understand your remark about "Javascript in my blog posts" or how it relates to CORS.

In theory, it should be trivial to make simple, truly "serverless", web-based feed readers like AirSS[1][2]. In practice, many people are prevented from doing this, because the feeds they're interested in are hosted on servers that don't support CORS, which leads to really annoying workarounds (like needing to use a proxy or a separate browser extension, etc.)

Discontinued website theyrule.net had a really cool visual web of board members of high profile companies [0]. Amazing how many board members of one company are board members of a handful of others. It's like there's a breed of person who is just "board member".

I've wondered if it might be more energy efficient to build home systems more like commercial ones. Make it walk-in but with a double door so you don't spill all the cold air when you open it. The freezer spills into the refrigerator so the cold isn't lost. Since it's built in size is of minimal importance and you can put a lot of insulation on it.
CEOs need to be lookout ten years out. They have little control over this quarters numbers, or even this years. All they can do is changes that won't affect the bottom line for a while.
Depends what they do when they find a vuln, there is incentive to not always reveal it.
>They were dumped unceremoniously, the result of the addled whims of a walking meme.

If this was a HN comment it would get flagged: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
Not really. It's been known for a while that the tech side of Twitter is incredibly low-performing.
I use Mailspring (previously I used Nylas Mail) just because it's what I'm used to... they do have neat features like pixel tracking (when your email is open by your recipient by sending an HTTP request to, say, an image) which is interesting.

But, to be honest, I think that the product space is not too big for email, we already communicate with so many tools that emails are left for just formal stuff (in my case) support tickets, contracts, updates, etc... there are but a few angles like privacy, but they kind of seem overcrowded (others are custom domain names, very intuitive UX, very good info about leads etc...)

I think you would have to get a really original angle, a true niche, something that has passed over everyone, and then the virality of it... I think intuitive UX is necessary but not sufficient; interested to see what you make of it, it's a good problem to solve

What fraction of the people and households in CA are that kind of tech? I bet not.

EDIT: I am referring to fraction in terms of people, not tax dollars. If they're long term unemployed now, their tax value is low anyway.

Yeah, a lot of things cost more than a basic laptop. Last I checked, you can get Chromebooks on the order of $20 or so per machine. That metric isn't useful to anybody.

They're maintaining a vulnerability database. That's like what CERTs do. It's analagous to maintaining a database of safe foodstuffs or drugs.
Yeah, jump ship to a more competently-ran company.

There's an asymmetry here where Twitter and other companies get blamed for layoffs, but didn't get praised for providing highly paid jobs that put their employees in the top 1%.

Even Stripe just had layoffs and they are a much more productive, tighter run ship.

Twitter cutting deeper than Stripe shouldn't be surprising. It's not a secret that they were overstaffed and are known for rest & vest.

This goes way back. In 2014 there was a show called Silicon Valley that had an entire character and subplots based on this phenomenon in tech companies. Big Head hanging out on the roof resonated for a reason. Compassion is warranted regardless and productive employees got caught in this too, but that doesn't mean we have to engage in selective amnesia and kneejerk outrage.
You’ll notice I’ll called out the line of thinking, but yes, I could critique many other religions lines of thinking.

Antora is pretty nice for large documentation projects. For smaller projects, you may want to try 11ty and the Asciidoctor plugin: https://github.com/saneef/eleventy-plugin-asciidoc
Well, kinda. For user, sure, but we could definitely get some security from having more granular permission for apps that the user runs (without going into extremes like Qubes OS).

For example, sound demon like pulseaudio runs as your user (...for some reason, fucking Lennart) but it really should not have write access to anything aside from its own config and for 99,99% users also not have access to read anything your user owns aside from its own config.

Even browsers should probably be limited, or user should at least get prompt, there is little reason to allow browser to dig around your system willy nilly, let alone in locations like ~/.ssh
They led to a stagnant company with -$200m in profits. Elon instantly led to a company that is now $1-2 billion in the red a year, and needs to aggressively cut costs and increase revenue to make it up. I'd say the current situation is 99% on Elon.

edit: For those not aware, the buyout included $13 billion in debt to Twitter which they need to pay $1-2 billion a year for in terms of interest alone.
I'm a huge fan of mining asteroids, provided that they aren't hurtling towards our planet. The tech to redirect an asteroid is a small piece of the tech we'll need to mine asteroids. Looking forward to us getting there as a species.

Protonmail is also expensive, I hope they do A/B testing to see how many deals they lose for just having annual pricing (same price but 6 months may have more demand)
Twitter has a responsibility to its shareholders to protect its information. Why on earth are people jumping to the conclusion they would take on any similar responsibility for another company??
This is why free software is a grift when the real problem is we are slaves to an ownership class and all the control of software can’t save us from their ability to infect companies, markets, governments, cultures and fuck them up. Democracy in all of these structures gives us the same benefits of FOSS with many more added freedoms and a handful new responsibilities.
I was part of a layoff affecting 100s of employees because of a boneheaded decision, corrupt project manager, etc. There was nothing at all I could do about it.
When it's trivially easy to break the law and there are no obvious victims, and it can be done on computers, those rules go out the window.

Almost everyone who shared music on Napster would have never shoplifted a CD from a record store. Almost everyone who shares TV episodes on Bittorrent would never have stolen a DVD from a store or climbed up a power pole to illegally tap into cable.

DigitalOcean doesn't have much Asian presence, Linode's backup doesn't support non default file system like zfs, DO / Linode don't have HDD block storage like Vultr does (which I think is a hidden gem you can't realize until you go add one as it's not mentioned in the pricing page) that can be a very nice option to throw backup data in at 40GB/$.

Vultr's CPU isn't as good as the other 2 by the look of sysbench, even for high frequency types.

Those 3 vendors only have 2 or 3 backup slots which can be kind of unreliable if you didn't notice data loss over a weekend and weekly backup can be too far apart.

Hetzner is almost perfect if they have a bit more location. Very cheap, very high performing, daily backup with plenty of slots but no HDD block storage.

Sometimes Amazon Lightsail can be a decent option as they have 7 daily backup slots, free bandwidth is comparable to the others and prices aren't bad except their CPU suck.

Small things but none are perfect.
In theory, I agree with you. In practice, it is mind-bogglingly rare how often high-level executives are fired for any reason, whether their fault or not.
how can anectoda even from regime media prove that economy as a whole is in recession?
Seems like it would be a terrible idea. CEOs are already incredibly short sighted, neglecting long-term disasters for short-term gains. Sometimes it seems as though CEOs aren't able to see beyond the next quarterly earnings report. Having a limit would incentivize running the company into the ground to get the highest quarterly profit possible. What do they care? Someone else will be CEO next year.

For a one time capex on an industrial installation, what would it matter? As long as the material is not liquid gold, it seems like the material is a drop in the bucket for everything else you have to maintain (personal, pumps, generators, etc).

I would quibble with the word proven here. There are compelling arguments with good data. single-payer could be better or worse depending on actual implementation and coverage.

It's also worth noting that many countries with single pair still have a supplemental insurance market for premium coverage not included.

I believe Elon will learn the hard way that yes you can solve tech problems by throwing humans at them but you can't solve human problems by throwing tech at them.
Absolutely, completely wrong. All of what your wrote. Musk's Twitter has given Tesla hundreds of billions of advertising equivalent exposure.
> If Musk is basically saying “stop working” and we will pay you for the next 60 days (and even beyond), then this is completely legal as long as they are not restricted from seeking other employment during this “notice period”

AFAICT, nobody was told to "stop working" today. They were all laid off, meaning terminated, no longer compensated, etc.
Attack complexity High (chance for an attacker to get anything at all is very low), Availability None (you're not crashing any service that's running in the background) and Confidentiality Low (data leaked is not in the attackers control and not likely to be interesting).

It is entirely reasonable to exhibit bias against someone who has repeatedly demonstrated gross irresponsibility. If Musk wishes to be taken seriously, then at this point the burden is on him to demonstrate that he deserves to be taken seriously. We are no longer willing to extend him the benefit of the doubt.
Do you have a chest fridge as the main or only fridge in your house? Tell us about your experience?

I feel my comment was just a response to the article text. Particularly the paragraph stating:
"So - WHY mediocre food-spoiling fridges are being made? WHO makes decisions to manufacture them? Who awards them "stars" and other misleading awards? Why people continue to buy and use energy wasting and food-spoiling devices? Does anyone care about understanding anything?"

I would like all fridges to be as efficient as chest fridges but I think they are impractical for small and medium houses, elderly people, families, disabled people, short people and people who can never remember what they have in their fridge. I think they are a niche product that is only suitable for a tiny proportion of people.

PS. On a personal note my quick comment seems to have stressed you out so I'll endeavour to write clear non-gear grinding comments and you should probably get off the internet for a bit
This sounds like AWS support on a bad week.
It's Twitter, though, so the 'competent workers' piece is questionable.
In my experience the big downside of storage heaters is that after heating up overnight they release all their heat while you’re out at work during the day. Maybe okay if you WFH.

Nowadays heat pumps would be far more efficient, shifting 3-4x the heat for the same energy.
Check out slab on grade foundations. They do what you are describing, by moving the air in your house towards the average temperature (cooling during the day, warming at night, usually). Sadly, they use a lot of concrete, so they have high embedded carbon.
How is that gaslighting?

Source? Do you work for Twitter? I haven't seen this claim anywhere.

Edit: source is https://www.businessinsider.com/read-blunt-email-telling-twi...
Would NYT publish scathing remarks about itself, or publish leaked internal data on itself? If not, I don't think such a thing should be expected of twitter either.
I don't work at a giant company, but I'm curious:

> Anyone that has worked on large, complex system knows that the margin of error in uptime and downtime is often whether the right person is within arms’ reach of their laptop.

Is this true?

Shouldn't giant tech companies obsess about reducing the need for human intervention?
He didn't want to buy it.
sudo has long history of bugs that would be impossible in Rust in the first place.

Yes, given enough care and effort you might write code that will not have those bugs, but not having a possibility (aside from unsafe{}) to have them in the first place is usually better approach.

Like, yeah, it is a dumb meme but in this case not without merit.
It’s a branch of Protestantism, the specific belief of theirs I was referencing was one that can be reduced to believing that the rich are because they are good and god wanted them to be and the poor and destitute are such because they are bad and god is punishing them

Copy pasting my reply from a different thread on that topic:

You think that if he paid completely up front he wouldn't care about cutting costs? Why? The pressure would still be there -- it would just be in the form of pressure to recoup his investment
Some context, these are the platforms that are at 1 billion or getting close to 1 billion users:

FB
Instagram
Youtube
Linkedin

Notice that twitter, despite it's age is nowhere close to closing on LinkedIN's current 700 million users.

Those worried about Journalists have not followed the upswing in Instagram users by journalists...some well known Liberal leaning journalist networks are now current Instagram users and creators.

The Twitter employees let go, got a gift of being freed from working for someone that factually is perceived as white superior race advocate including racism.

Advertisers, current Twitter employees and users all have the most important vote and objection to this...our feet and attention.
But what's the cost of cooling those bottles when they replace something that was removed?

I like the idea of thermal mass in a refrigerator or freezer (it took me a while to figure out why milk at home would never last to it's shelf date--the grocery store has a huge thermal mass to it's dairy cases, the milk on the shelf gets much less exposure to warm air than the milk at home) but if you're going to eliminate dead air space I think it's best done with empty boxes, not water.
I'm paying for a few small Linux VMs. Pair has nothing all price competitive.

They're also now part of a giant media company (!), so yeah, pass.
This is not how the WARN act works. Companies do not need to give a 60 day warning to layoff employees. They can instead pay out 60 days of severance. Which is what everyone always does since letting employees hang out at the office for 2 months after a layoff would be super weird.
So are you proposing to use dependently typed languages then? Typical languages like C++ don't make it very convenient.

template<size_t N>
void do_something(char (&s)[N]) { ... }

Now when you have a string of unknown length, how do you reify it with that template? In practice languages then have to keep around an unknown type argument at runtime. This is incompatible with most languages where types aren't known at runtime.
No. That was just an example. But severance is pretty universal in the US: https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/hr-topics/compensatio...
as would many of musks tweets. not sure your point.
I can't remember the details now, but I remember a couple years back the New York Times published a big exposé on a screwup in the Middle East perpetuated by... The New York Times. My understanding is that this type of thing isn't even so uncommon.
It's a cool idea. The big advantage might be in being cheap, simple, and non-toxic, so that it can be easily deployed in less-prosperous areas and with less expertise. It seems probably even simpler than the "concrete stacking battery" whose name I forget. But...

>with currently available technology the process of converting heat back into electricity only has an efficiency rate of 30%

Yes they're recovering heat as well, which is great when it works. But in general 30% is not great. This probably only makes sense to use when you have huge amounts of nearly-free power. Like if you massively overbuilt solar/wind (which could be a plausible thing to do!) or nuclear.

I am building something like this! It's oriented specifically towards reading the feeds via a pdf digest on eReaders like the reMarkable/Supernote/etc though.

1. configure your feeds (RSS/Atom, but also Twitter/Reddit) in a simple dashboard
2. connect Google Drive (Dropbox/OneDrive to be supported eventually)
3. on a daily schedule, a pdf file with your feeds' content will be sent to your GDrive account, which can be synced on your tablet device.

If interested, I've got a survey you can fill out to get alpha access: https://forms.gle/qmy6WMgHLxWiEgx4A
I also think it's kind of pointless as anything other than a demonstration of the speech synthesis (which is getting pretty good). The Feynman character especially shows that while these models can pick up a bunch of the details about the surface style, they certainly can't be clever or insightful, which is the appeal of the people being imitated.

With respect to using the voices or faces of dead people, I do think it's interesting that the estates of the deceased can have some control over commercial uses of personal images. The estate of MLK I think still controls use of the whole audio from some of his famous speeches. But my understanding is we haven't yet settled whether synthetic / derived artifacts which rely heavily on existing photos or recordings should themselves be controlled in the same way.
Resorting to ad-hominems only lowers the credibility of the user writing them.

And the article linked does not list where it got the information from, nor is it a reputable outlet for tech/finance news in the U.S., so it's questionable whether you bothered to actually read the entire article.
