I can't remember how long ago it was.. before Google and Facebook started pushing crazy benefits Microsoft was kind of famous for it. MS's level of it back in the day was much lower than today, but still generous for the time.

At some point they had to stop as they had caught employees emptying the free drink fridges and taking them off campus and reselling them.

So they had to stop offering that stuff. Though I'm sure they had to re-add it later.

Not sure what the best way is. Here's the very basics of digital marketing:

* build something great

* build a list of people interested in that thing

* Keep them engaged by giving them value

* occasionally ask them to buy stuff

And the rest is implementation details.
The problem is that CAs aren't really part of the cryptosystem. They hold the roots of trust but charge for there services and are for-profit. Without any competition we would have a terrible monopoly.

I agree that there are too many CAs. But the ideal number is also significantly more than 1.

...well unless you include zero. If we can replace this with something better that would be much more desirable.
Yes this would be mortifying to some people. I noticed my friend was having trouble with their car jack and dropped off a new one for them. They felt humiliated. Not saying don't do it, but be sure you know your friend if you do this. The "and you can't pay me back" is maybe the ouchiest part. It's unfortunate because the person giving the gift is usually genuinely trying to help, only to be slapped in the face.

Assuming all this is correct, if a GMail user requests their account to be deleted, Google should delete that data.
Reflecting on my other comment, the therapy angle I would explore is the anxiety created from a fear of failure due to not responding to all of the messages.

One way to test this is to just not respond to a slack message for say 5mins, then 10mins, then an hour, then say half a day and then a day. You will train the folks to ping you less and you will learn that nobody cares if you respond. And the benefit will be that you trained them to go elsewhere.

If anyone asks, say you were focused on a specific task (which you probably are) and muted slack or something. Remember your job is to produce dev stuff and not mediate slack or serve as an information conduit for folks. Those interactions should take place in a meeting.

Most likely your anxiety will increase at each interval but then dissipate when no negative consequences arrive. You then increase your tolerance and so forth.

VMs are fundamentally about gambling. If you knew statically what to do in the compiler then you’d run an ahead of time (AOT) compiler. VMs are for those cases where an AOT would have been slower, and empirically, languages like JS, Java, and Lua perform much better with a dynamic VM than with an AOT and that’s why we use VMs.

So, eliminating gambling is like saying we should just do AOTs. We could but then we’d be slower.

> From a different POV, why isn't it valid to ask, "Why can't this also be fast?" Why is that a feature and not a bug?

A professional gambler ought not ask this question. A professional gambler ought instead ask: how am I doing in the average? Hence the flaw in this research. It’s bad gambling.
If you want to find the optimal number look at how many hours startup founders put in. Incentives are 100% aligned in how they benefit from their work. They have no incentive to work less or more than the optimal number of hours.
> Does the solution to your problem have to be free (as in $0), or are you willing to pay?

That's a different axis.

Solutions need to be open (interoperable) standards. That means I must have the ability to sit down and implement all of it myself and it'll interoperate with everyone else.

Whether you pay or not is separate consideration. If I implement everything myself I pay nothing other than a lot of my time. Alternatively I can pay someone else to implement it for me, or buy a pre-built solution from any number of vendors, or subscribe to a SaaS solution from other vendors.

The key is interoperability between all these. Like HTTP or SMTP.

The FTX bankruptcy filing in full
I came here to say this about the Cortland Apple. Right off the tee it is so good. In the supermarket, not so much.
Too much for whom? For businesses, definitely not too much; if you're awake you could be working. For workers? We worked less when we were hunter-gatherers, and even peasants up to the industrial revolution worked seasonally and thus had an average of 20 hours a week. Now we work 40 hours a week for 44-48 weeks a year. And for what? To pay too much for health care, be stressed out constantly, sit in traffic commuting, and waste away sitting in a chair ruining our eyes staring at screens.
Same here for the longest time. It seems so easy - maybe because it's every new framework's tutorial - but the reality is it's much harder if you want anything more than a simple list. I want one I can share with my wife and attach comments to for tracking, but then also with due dates, and also recursion for some tasks and sometimes regardless of if the original one was finished... It gets big fast.

That isn't the impression I got from reading their forums-- rather, you can find some messages vocally opposed to "shady practices" but only because people keep promoting and arguing against the position.

You won't find such vocal opposition to shady practices elsewhere because elsewhere it isn't needed. In the world of charity for sociopaths, "scamming for good" is inside the overton window and has to be combated to prevent it from taking over.

There's plenty of situations where one or both of those statements are temporarily untrue and plenty more where they're permanently untrue.

Most users don't have flagship phones or brand new MacBooks. They don't have ultra fast WiFi or 5G. Even if they have more powerful devices they might be on shitty school/Starbucks/public/office WiFi.

You don't need to build everything like it's 1996 but it's absurd to simply assume every user is on a MacBook with gigabit Ethernet. The web is full of terribly built web pages pretending they're "apps" and using megabytes of JavaScript to show some text and images.
When I heard of this story, two fanciful case studies came to mind-

Just for the record (and not as a defense of crypto): using gold for protecting your money from inflation is completely nonsensical, too.
I agree with you on this. It is not only task based but individual based. When I am at my desk doing tech type work I max out 'productively' at about 30 hours +/- depending on what I'm doing. But when I'm out doing farm stuff I can run 60 or 70 hours without much trouble when on the tractor etc., or a bit less when stacking hay bales.

Mentally tired, for me, is much harder to recover from than physically tired. I'm not saying I want to work 70 or 80 hours a week lifting heavy things, but this type of hourly rating system can be very subjective by the individual.
A friend of mine was telling me about some Twitterati whinging about "the pain" of switching from Twitter to (e.g.) Mastodon, and I had to stop him. At moments like these I'm always reminded of the Jetsons arguing over who's going to push the button to make dinner. You don't even have to get out of your chair!?

And, again, this is only a problem in the first place because they voluntarily gave their agency to a corporation that doesn't have their interests at heart.
That's definitely the goal! Look at arbitrary datasets and try to understand what's in them. It's particularly important for climate data where aligning different datasets geospatially and temporally can be a challenge.

The GDPR is actually surprisingly understandable and 'plain English' (obviously, lawyers have their own interpretations of everything).

Many companies think their employees are being productive for 40 hours a week, while it's actually somewhere between 10 and 20, with the rest being a big void. If you are actually doing 40 hours a week you are productive as hell.
I think if there were more variability in scheduling a lot of people would exceed 40 hours on average without much issue.

If office workers had the ability to have more relaxed PTO I think it would alleviate a lot of that. But even in places where that's possible via the type of work, it's still culturally not acceptable to just take a day off here or there without a "reason."
And this is only after a few days that's he's had to examine the FTX books. There's likely a lot more bodies buried that will take a bit longer to find.
I don't think this language is ugly and it is indeed hard to say which language is objectively beautiful, but I personally have always disliked syntax that uses the ' operator for some reason. It's small - it looks like a piece of dirt on the screen, which makes it hard to read. I imagine the same arguments could apply to the '.' or ',' operators, though ' tends to appear around whitespace, while ./, around characters, so there's at least some contextual information around them.
I don't see a world where programming isn't the last thing to go. We pretty much have a general intelligence when a "programmer" is no longer needed. That doesn't mean programming will look anything like it does today in 200 years but will the profession, doing kinda the sameish thing, still exist? Absolutely!

One thing that stands out is that SBF knows how to buy influence and was not shy in doing it. That paid off in spades. There are indications that government regulators knew he was a total fraud but were willing to look the other way because he was too influential.

His big mistake was making an enemy that was sitting on enough fake token to crash the exchange. Had SBF stayed on good terms with Changpeng Zhao FTX would still be around today and could probably have survived for many years.

>The Facebook/Google crazy level of perks with 3 meals provided very day, dry cleaning, massages, etc

I worked for Google at the campus on Crittenden for a short stint in 2015. We had a few folks keep the kegerator stocked with their home brews and a wall of liquor one could sample as needed. I kept the kitchenette stocked with hot sauce on my own accord b/c I wanted to have some handy.

I'm also in my (late) 40s and all of these little perks were very new to me. I quickly grew accustomed to them, but to be honest I didn't miss a single one of them after I left. I don't know that they really moved the needle for me at all.

Except for the shuttle. I *loved* having the shuttle. It greatly simplified the ability to not have a car for the first time in my adult life and it was awesome.
> I think that there was an oversight in the rules

I'm not sure about that. Ever heard of a "mega backdoor Roth"? It's a legal way for high income earners to contribute much more than the normal limits.

Besides, you're free to load up on TQQQ or penny stocks in your Roth if you're feeling lucky. If you lose it all, you will have squandered a great opportunity to gain tax-free wealth. Or, maybe you'll hit the jackpot and end up with a pile of tax-free money. Then if the rules change and you have to give it back you'll probably ease off of that whole "obligation to society" line.
> No one time investment is needed if you want to learn J.

I don't understand the "{J,K,Q} don't require you to learn new symbols" argument. You're learning a mapping between symbols and functionality, not literally learning to recognize the lines and curves that make up the glyph.

"reverse" is `|.` in J and `⌽` in APL. It doesn't seem obvious that the J mapping is easier just because I've seen those characters in other contexts.

It does take a little work to learn where they live on the keyboard, but that doesn't seem like a huge barrier to overcome. The live editor on the BQN site shows a list of glyphs and hovering shows you where they are on the keyboard. You just prefix with `\` to type them, so you don't even need any custom keymap.
Now for the real trick: if Apple obfuscates the manual and taxes the manual-sellers, then they have a real moneymaker on their hands!

It does not. I use some extra software to try and improve that, which helps, but it also means the laptop is noticably laggy on battery. But you're right that is likely part of the equation. I don't think it's the whole story though, I see other people complaining of wise than Windows battery life on laptops that do support Linux.
Sorry I was referring to GDPR
I would say any decline I've noticed is due to "training time," yeah. I will sometimes go a few months without playing... jumping back in will take me a few rounds to get back to "good," and I feel a similar slope when I start new games. I imagine if I played from end of work til sleep every night like when I had time as a kid, I would probably be as then-me, if not better.
> couple of kb of CSS

Assuming an average line of CSS is 30 bytes, that's 66 lines of CSS. That definitely should be enough.

I would argue that if on a diet, 20 lines of CSS should be enough to provide a very readable, aesthetically inoffenseive website.

If browsers had consistent, sane defaults which were designed for readability, then CSS wouldn't even be necessary for most information sites. The symantics of HTML tags were observed uniformly, sane defaults could be assumed.
Congrats on the launch. I'll share with some of my Web3 friends to get their thoughts.

I think that content addressability works really well for code, at the bottom layer. But in order to be practical, you typically need:

Naming and resolvers, in order to be human friendly. This isn't easy to get right, but we have a lot of prior art in dependency management systems.

Persistence layers with GC, like cache and db. You're gonna want to fetch and prefetch in ways that are quite advanced. You don't want to be be blocked in a critical section by network fetching the leftpad function.

> If you are actually doing 40 hours a week you are productive as hell.

I disagree. But I think what we qualify as "work" is more rigid than it needs to be. Is spending 5 minutes looking at HN every few hours work? Most people would say no, but it absolutely helps developers to know what's going on or new or what other devs outside their company are saying.

If I spend 20 minutes reading about a language/app that my company doesn't use is that work? I think a lot of the "yes" answers would be accompanied by rolling eyes.

Having worked at a place with subsidized cafeteria onsite, oh boy was the food shitty. The old school businesses I worked at had this really strange view of cafeterias, like they expected their employees to hear the whistle blow and everyone take their tin lunchbox to the lunch room.
From my personal experience it's closer to 30, sometimes less depending on the level of creativity and number of independent disciplines/specialized knowledge bases I need to draw upon and unify for a solution. After that I'll happily welcome the most mundane, repetitive and simple tasks.
Some of the criticism doesn't make sense: Providing food, amenities, even accommodation has been a method with which private and state organizations around the world used to cut their costs and better the life standards of their members since the dawn of the modern economy after the industrial revolution.

Especially for organizations that have thousands of employees in one location, providing a cafeteria can be much cheaper for both the employees and the organization than thousands of employees going out to eat in private establishments at lunch time. The organization providing housing to employees to work around the bloated real estate sector can also be beneficial to the employeees and the organization. Similarly, Apple mulling its own health services is a good idea - they can reduce their costs and increase quality of life.

Its economies of scale after all. If you have tens of thousands of organization members in a location, it becomes an economy of scale that can reduce every member's and organization's costs directly.

If you do not provide such services to your members using economies of scale inside your organization and instead leave it to the free market by giving monetary compensation instead, you can bet that the free market will do everything in its power to suck all of that monetary compensation out of the hands of the employees by providing the minimum service in return to maximize profit.
