True in the absolute, but irrelevant. Censorship is always contextual, in practice censors fall short of the 1984ish "ideal" of total domination of the individual.

This dichotomy (free speech for all, but no one is required to offer a platform) works in liberal societies because you have a diversity of publishers.
Stripe has barely trimmed their internal valuation. Their best public comp, Square, has lost 80% of it's market cap since the peak. Stripe on the other hand, has trimmed theirs 22%. The people most hurt by this are employees at refresher and offer time given their yearly vest schedule.
Internationally and more broadly, you're totally right. In the subthread of Germany and their existing Imprint registration system though, we have the technology for making it so the imprints can't just be copied by scammers, or at least make it harder than it currently is.

Anecdotally my wife changed her diet and basically tried to replace sugar with sucralose wherever she could. The end result was a significant weight loss. I should note she also did start exercising more at the same time, so definitely not a controlled study. But the delta in calories from sugar was far greater than the caloric expenditure from exercise.
It’s easy enough to fake it for this period, let’s see how they do after layoffs when they are mired in a swampy mess of unmaintained code.
I'm think that's incorrect.

>And not announcing this rule before the match starts.

I don't think there's a possible way to more clearly announce a rule than declaring it in a parameter -> friendlyPassOk=true.

>It's like playing stockfish, but with a rule that says in a theoretical drawn endgame, you lose if the king does not end on a corner square

The king-in-the-corner rule, is that a rule normal humans play chess with? If so, I would expect Stockfish to handle it. In this case they're just setting the Go rules to match the ruleset that lots of humans play with.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
They take the hit but the payouts eventually end. What’s described would not have been that uncommon for big companies back in the day. They take a financial in a quarter and they hope they can move on with a lower cost structure. Often doesn’t play out well of course.
Yeah, being able to access even one to give hands-on could be pretty valuable.
> From 1501 until 1866, it is estimated that the transatlantic slave trade

Modern American style capitalism didn't really start until late 1700s.

You could even go further and say that modern state-capitalism didn't start until the central banks took a foundational role in the economy.

Slavery started under mercantilism then started dying off as capitalism rose to dominate the world.
Ok, but that means your criteria for a basic messenger app is something that does everything that all the other messaging apps do.
I feel like this isn't a surprise at all, but I guess it's good to have empirical evidence of it. It's abundantly clear anecdotally that the people who drink tons of artificial-sweetened stuff are _not_ as healthy as those who consume neither tons of sugar OR artificial sweetener.

Or put differently: everyone who chugs diet soda seems to be weirdly skinny or weirdly fat, so there is clearly some microbiome effect going on.

If I was king of the web, AVIF wouldn't have been added and JPEG XL would.

Having said that, AVIF did get added and I don't think having some kind of process for adding new image formats beyond "it exists and is better" is a bad thing.

Ideally all the big players would come together and settle on one.

This kind of happened for AV1 video, so it's a shame that as a side effect of that AVIF got added before JPEG XL and split the potential momentum for a next generation image codec in two.

That feels like a mistake that it's not too late to revert though.

Show HN: I made a simple tool with GTP-3 and Google Sheets for copywriting ideas
Now that the GPT-3 api has been opened up to the wider public, I've been looking for an excuse to work with it in some way. Although, I would argue this hardly qualifies as "working with" GPT-3, I've paid for tools in the past that offer nothing more than the base models wrapped in a CRUD app. So, at least this replaces middle-men with minimal value-add. Anyways, I'm happy to consider adding additional features. What do you think?
You can be skinny and diabetic too.

One of the American Ninja Warriors last season wore an insulin pump. While competing. I’ve since noticed pictures of a few competitive runners with them.

Weight and metabolic function are correlated, not equivalent.
You need to be profitable today in the current market. The money funnel is turned off so little venture funding and high rate loans.

So I don't see it as mass hysteria but instead. "We need to cut costs by 10% to avoid hitting the downward spiral of taking out loans".
No, he is sleeping when he is off duty.
What makes you feel that way?
Not the OP, but PCIe5 NICs are already available in the market; I've seen people requesting help getting them to work on desktop platforms which have PCIe5 as of the most recent chips. AFAIK, currently, both AMD and Intel release desktop before server; I don't think there's a public release date for Zen4 server chips, but probably this quarter or next? Intel's release process is too hard for me to follow, but they've got desktop chips with PCIe5, so whenever those get to the server, then that might be an option too.
If you keep someone on board with the intention of letting them go later, you do them a disservice by making them think they have a steady job. It stops them from looking for something else and missing possible opportunities.

If you tell them you will fire them, then you do them a disservice wasting their time if you don't expect them to work anyway.

That's why a severance payment makes sense. Pay them what they would have been paid but don't make them work.
I'm all for layoffs, but this is indeed extremely curious.

Ask HN: What value does a startup described as a “toy” provide?
Often successful startups are described as "toys" (PG's organic startups essay). Is this because they don't offer any value? If they don't offer any value then how can they be successful? I'm asking because Im working on a project I think is cool (and other people might think is cool), but it solves no pressing need for an ICP
If you remove Snaps from Ubuntu, how do you install apps that are not in their regular repo, for example, Firefox? Do you sideload them?
> "So different users aren’t able to see full threads based on their location? You’re seemingly randomly able to respond in some circumstances and not others?"

Of course. That is what they've demanded, so that is what they get.

> "When there are people all over the globe participating in the same discussion, you can’t realistically have an odd patchwork of rules. "

On the contrary: You must have this. As a matter of law. There is no alternative, other than withdrawing from those countries entirely and ignoring the issue of people accessing your site anyway (which is what happens in certain extreme situations, states under sanctions, etc)

> " It’s very common for people on this forum, for example, to be commenting on their experiences in Europe, where free speech is heavily curtailed in comparison to the states. How do you manage such threads? "

Here are the options:

1) Do not do business in those countries.

2) Provide different services for those countries to reflect their legal requirements.

There is no way to provide a globally consistent experience because laws are often in mutual conflict (one state will for example prohibit discussion of homosexuality and another state will prohibit discriminating on the basis of sexual preference)
They are the same. You want to be a 30th percentile employee. Bad enough to do little work and never be trusted with anything important or with hard deadlines, but just good enough not to fire.

I'm not arguing against subsidies.

But, claiming that SpaceX, Tesla, or Musk personally were uniquely competitive, successful, or disruptive while they had a buffer of 5bn USD in the back pocket is misleading.
Powell has previously said that he wants higher unemployment. He believes this is the only way to decrease demand and bring down prices.

> The labor market continues to be out of balance, with demand for workers substantially exceeding the supply of available workers. The labor force participation rate showed a welcome uptick in August but is little changed since the beginning of the year. FOMC participants expect supply and demand conditions in the labor market to come into better balance over time, easing the upward pressure on wages and prices. The median projection in the SEP for the unemployment rate rises to 4.4 percent at the end of next year, ½ percentage point higher than in the June projections

> We’re never going to say that there are too many people working, but the real point is this: Inflation—what we hear from people when we meet with them is that they really are suffering from inflation. And if we want to set ourselves up, really light the way to another period of a very strong labor market, we have got to get inflation behind us. I wish there were a painless way to do that. There isn’t.

That is why the market goes down when low unemployment numbers are released. Powell will continue to raise rates until the labor market cools. He's not using the labor market to determine whether or not the economy can handle more rate increases. He's absolutely determined to increase unemployment via rate hikes.

Anecdata. I did quite a few experiments on myself, as I practice alternate day fasting and keto diet for extended periods of time, and routinely maintain high blood ketone body levels (3-9mmol/l). Drinking beverages with artificial sweeteners (coke zero) did not change my ketone levels - or interrupted them going up. I think it may be overall beneficial since those beverages make low carb diets way easier.

Imagine for a moment what would happen if this rationale were extended to the criminal justice system. Due process is sanctified in law for a good reason. Incontestable assumptions of adversarial intent are the slow but sure path to the degradation of any community.

There will always be blind spots and malicious actors, no matter how you structure your policies on content moderation. Maintaining a thriving and productive community requires active, human effort. Automated systems can be used to counteract automated abuses, but at the end of the day, you need human discretion/judgement to fill those blind spots, adjust moderation policies, proactively identify troublemakers, and keep an eye on people toeing the line.

Wrote a comic about code interviews [0].

Code interviews are broken. I judge a company's software development maturity based on their interview process. I've been the owner of such processes, and I've made the mistake of applying non-related coding exercises, but I've also had success revisiting these with new approaches.

There's no formula for all companies, but the best kind of interview process, in my opinion, is to match the developer skills and personality with what you already have in-house, and with the kind of problems your tech team is facing.

I occasionally use restic but one thing I don't like about it is the sheer number of data files it creates (45k for ~800GB in my case) which makes it a pain to use with certain cloud storage providers that don't always handle tens of thousands of files very well (gdrive being a good example).

Is there some way to get it to not make as many files?
You can, if you use pledge() and unveil() on Linux. SECCOMP and Landlock use a monotonically decreasing permissions model. It's inherited across exec(). This is a good thing. OpenBSD devs don't need it because they built their own hermetic system. They're more afraid of having their servers compromised remotely than they are of programs they've installed locally. The tradeoff is you can't use pledge() and unveil() to build your own SSH server on Linux, since SSH needs to shed restrictions when launching a shell. But the benefit is you can safely leverage more code written by strangers on the Internet, which is what Linux is all about.

Games that use QUIC (no connections without CA TLS) will have a higher chance of eventually stopping working because they'll have to maintain the infrastructure to update their leased TLS cert from the CA every $x days. This is less important now than in the past because most games have moved to a microtransactions model that is (mostly, see exceptions like Team Fortress 2) incompatible with hosting your own server. So usually the company kills the game or goes under itself first.

But for those games that do use QUIC and do have private servers, hacks will be needed to keep the games going long term (20+ years). Retro-gaming is going to be much harder in the future.

This seems an interesting over-reaction to me. Toot is an onomatopoeia that's as old if not older than the English language. It is enshrined in ancient, common aphorisms such as "tooting one's own horn". It's a childish word certainly, and it is childishly used sometimes for farting jokes in addition to horn noises and trumpeting sounds, which I can understand feels "ridiculous" as in silly (to which I retort once again: it's fun, let people have fun, people can be children on the internet and be silly sometimes) but I can't understand "ridiculous" as you put it in the same context of "bad" much less do I find it comparable to your other examples.

Soylent is a "Torment Nexus" style name, which is bizarre (and yeah, probably bad). (The "Torment Nexus" meme is: Scifi writer: I have described the Torment Nexus as a warning. Do not build the Torment Nexus. Company: The Torment Nexus sounds like a great idea. We are just about to ship our MVP of the Torment Nexus!)

Coq unfortunately sounds like genitalia to an English audience, and there are tons of hang-ups (for good and dumb reasons) about referring to genitalia in polite company. It's very different level of cultural hang up than "silly euphemism for a fart". Also, for the record, it's a tool from a French team and named a French word that has nothing to do with the English genitalia word that it sounds like. (It is related to the English poultry homonym and why English even has such a homonym.) Not all programming needs to be Anglophilic or consult with English speakers first before naming all their tools.
When you listen to people who are pointing out that you are a hypocrite, you are platforming hateful abusers and possible Putin propagandists. Listening to negativity is platforming hate.

WC has a "character" flag that really just counts bytes:

$ echo דותן | wc -c
9

Note that each letter is two bytes, and the newline is an additional byte. So you could pipe (or tree) to wc to count bytes. For a hypothetical stdmeta on fd 3, that might look like this (piping stdout to devnull):

$ foo 3>&1 > /dev/null | wc -c

I think it's clear these are really contrived examples built explicitly to prove an exception to the rule.

In the real world, doing something is typically better than doing nothing.

You are walking in the park and see a woman being dragged into a bush to be assaulted. Do you intervene? By doing so are you stopping all assaults against women? No, but invariably people would still say you've done more good by doing something than by doing nothing.

The protestors in Iran haven't hit Bob their government, you're not restraining an equally aggrieved party by backing them against their regime. They're if anything the long term victims of Bob's habitual violence and they're finally seeking to break free, not to hurt Bob, but to be free from being hurt themselves.

A child is starving to death in Sudan. Do you feed them or do nothing? Does feeding them feed all the children? Does feeding none of the children make the world a better place than feeding one? If you were that child, or their parents watching them die in their arms, would you hope people would step away from their completely detached hypotheticals and actually do something to save a life when they could?

Etc etc

I strongly feel that it’s a good policy not to try to trick your body into thinking something is going on when it isn’t. Tricking it into thinking you are sugar has consequences. So does tricking your body into thinking you have an active lifestyle (eg, weight lifting for aesthetics vs cross training).
Right exactly which is why it's hard to find data. But I'd love to see someone who has tried to limit variables to just the network stack to figure out if one network stack is better than the other.

But you're right, in the end you just have to set up both for your particular use case with the best optimizations each has to offer and see which performs better.
Sure, but whether you go for a central funding model (which boils down to everybody pays regardless of use) or a user pays model, that decision has nothing to do with capitalism. In a non-capitalist system you could do either.

In fact in a capitalist model you could still do either. The utility could be privately owned but have just one customer, the government. It’s not a great idea, but it does happen.
You shouldn't formulate the system like that - without any proportion. The proportions are what matters.

It also was monstrously hard to reason about the components in that thing, and our experience was that it didn't take any efforts to delineate which parts run "locally" versus which parts are evaluated on the Janus server

At the very least, our experience was that the (Janus/Gremlin/Tinkerpop) client library who just wished to run some Gremlin needed to be aware of all the nuances of the backing Cassandra store, and not (as a reasonable person would presume) queries sent to Janus and Janus talks to Cassandra using its own auth
