This has not been my experience in the past 7 years of addiction recovery. It's been imperative in order to root out as many ways my personality evolved to support addiction and has led to realizing many unconventional ways I've been avoiding my emotions than what's identified by most recovery or 12-step groups. Also, I've made arguments like what you're making before i entered into recovery to explain why i wasn't trying to make comprehensive changes to my life and explain away learned helplessness around changing myself.

My guess is what's viewed as decision fatigue could be unaddressed emotional issues, such as automated judgment/criticism, fear avoidance, normalized disempowerment narratives (which is related to cultivating a growth-oriented mindset, as opposed to one that says "this is just how i am and it can never be different"). Practicing radical acceptance and ignorance, as well as maintaining a playful attitude toward what I'm doing have been monumental to deeply examining myself. All this helps with perfectionism, which i also stopped practicing. Attempting to be thorough and comprehensive in the application of principles to one's life is not an effort in perfectionism; perfectionism is more about how one approaches doing such a thing. I think another term for what I'm referring to here is "monasticism."

These days, I'm also caring for a 4-year old while trying to examine everything we do from a generational trauma perspective. I no longer believe in ego depletion and consider it to be justification for people getting tired of stuffing/processing emotions that arise in the course of things, and potentially needs they're not aware of going habitually unmet. This brings me to another monumental thing i think has helped me in living a principled and intentional life: learning nonviolent communication and developing an awareness of feelings and universal human needs. To my knowledge,there are no studies examining the impact of these practices on decision-making.

I can say this: choosing actions/things based on what I think will meet my needs vs deny them is easy in a society where most decisions aren't oriented toward needs. There are learning challenges along the way, since there can often be no options present that effectively meet needs, so acceptance of the situation and creativity to come up with new options are both really important skills to develop.

As an aside, ego depletion and decision fatigue seem to be concepts without a lot of reproducibility behind them, or with much smaller effect sizes than previously reported.
You're not competing with normal employees but with other CEOs and with other companies.
Obviously the best solution is that every urinal be equipped with an extremely powerful fan that sucks in the pee, so no matter what direction you aim, the pee always ends up in the urinal.
I thought it was pretty crazy while ago when people were discussing that Tschernobyl series as if it were real life and not a fictional(ized) tv show. Much rather have a documentary than this situation where the fact that it's fiction gives the producers enough plausible deniability about inaccuracies/lies/biases while still being basically real in many people's minds.
Sure, but given that the majority of people in America, especially the ones I see complaining about amazon, are going to be living within an hour or so of a major city -- San Francisco, Seatle, Austin, New York, LA, I'm not sure how the difficulties of delivering to Hyder, AK or Las Vegas, NM factor in.
Rapid mass layoffs based on completely arbitrary grounds and sudden drastic changes in work expectations are abusive practices regardless of the level of compensation.

Well, not sure I am a bad actor but reading the comment gave me the idea of typing my ex's nickname and I now discover she has an account on a quite unusual platform of which I am a member, too.

For sure, I would never have the time to build such a tool. So, yes, some bad actors may have the "ability" as you mention, but I don't think that is the best justification to make querying this tool that easy.

Same. I made this decision 18 months ago when I was thinking about an EV.

The good thing is there are decent alternatives now that, in many ways, are superior. I've delayed my decision anyway as I happen not to really need one right now and so I hope my delay results in better technology.

Note: for those who cannot wait, Hyundai ioniq 5 is the one. I was so close to pulling the trigger on that beauty. Test drove it. Loved it. Excellent all around package with the added bonus that it looks far better than the model 3 (which looks horribly dated every time I see it now).

As someone who dislikes eBay and prefer to deal with companies, rather then individuals, the UKs preference for eBay is interesting. Working for an eCommerce site we noticed that customers would prefer to deal with a lady in Scotland over us, for certain types of products. She just posted our product on eBay, added a few £ to the price, ordered them from us, typed in her customers address in the shipping fields.

Worked out for everyone, given that her customers would rather order on eBay and pay a little extra, compared to dealing with us. We got the price we wanted, plus we didn't have to deal with customer service.

Your project looks super interesting.

I had the idea of running a single user server on CloudFlare Workers and using D2 (their SQLite based db). A light weight JS/TS implementation would be perfect. Looks like you have Postgres planned, it would probably be possible to expand from that to SQLite.

FTX and it's executives donated $70 million to politicians as well (in the last 18 months). SBF donated $40MM to Democrats, and a different executive donated $23MM to Republicans.

They were trying to buy all kinds of influence.
I’m not the greatest fan of Musk but if I was at Twitter, I would have stayed just to see how Musk works up close, to see the changes, and maybe to feel like being part of something big.

Now, in retrospect, I would not have stayed but 9 months ago it was hard to know how chaotic Musk will be.
I have an advanced degree (not PhD, Master's) and I ended up poor again.

Disability! If you grow up poor, you can make it out as long as nothing goes wrong. You have no grace. The clock's ticking.

Oh, and you'd best be prepared to leave your family, friends, and anyone who has helped you to drown.
Financial math is just arithmetic with a footnote about remembering to add a dozen zeroes.

Same as we were taught in school; keep the numbers you work with day to day by using a simple noticing.

Add 1 to 3.654 x 10^11, another billionaire appears!

Their wealth is mathematical inference. None of them have Scrooge McDuck Vaults full of real money.

Tangentially, Paul G Tweeted a few weeks ago about America being “fake”; American cheese was one thing he called out specifically. No one Tweeted back “billionaire wealth.” I had del’d my Twitter years ago, did not seem worth making a new one.
I have very mixed feelings about bastion hosts in general. It usually feels like moving the problem around, eventually you end up adding even more complexity just to do your job. Wireguard (or Zerotier/Tailscale, depending on your threat model) might end up being simpler. Complex is the enemy of secure - if it's hard to use, then it's easy to make a mistake.
One of the most important papers in this field is [0]. (As is common in science, it built on a long history of nearby ideas, e.g. [1].) An important calculation done around this idea is presented in [2], in which remarkable progress is made on Hawking's black hole information paradox. All of these papers have some amount of mathematical backing, but you'll find plenty of formulas and calculations in [2]!

> There is good and bad in all tools.

In the sense that you are implying, the good and the bad are most definitely not in the tools.
> The other inescapable conclusion is that whenever the quality of the shopping experience on Amazon and the needs of Amazon's advertising business clash, advertising will win (just as it has on Google).

Saying that the e-commerce arm is worthless isn't really the right way to think about it - the ads business only exists to due the e-commerce product. Both Amazon and Google are well aware that their ad revenues depend on their having users, who will ultimately leave if the product (ecommerce and search, respectively) isn't compelling. Both of them know that long-term success requires them to prioritize user experience.

Do they make bad decisions, either due to misaligned incentives internally or due to simply making mistakes? Undoubtedly. But it's also worth considering that they probably get the tradeoff right a lot of the time and most people simply aren't bothered by ads nearly as much as you'd like them to be.
The real question is: How much money are the shareholders happy to pay for a CEO to accomodate their level of risk and their level of confidence in the returns?

If they could pay less, they would.
Some of us like to work, eat, and make money. Before Musk, there is no way I would have offered any alternative view. Now, I can speak freely. Anyone complaining is more vested in politics than software.
> I don't remember how this is called, something like a honeymoon period.

I think you mean "blatant worldwide market manipulation"?

Dumping products until the competition is bankrupt and then using your monopoly to crush the consumers is a practice as old as commerce.
Hmm, I was able to launch a c2-standard-8 without any problems. The e2 instances still don't work. Maybe google is pushing us towards the more expensive SKUs!

Exactly.

To recap for folks unfamiliar with the history:

Peter Thiel co-founded the electronic payments company that developed PayPal.

Musk co-founded an online bank which had massive security holes.

The two companies merged and Musk was fired before the name was changed to PayPal.

See part 1 of Common Sense Skeptic's video on YouTube: Debunking Elon Musk
Musk is basically trying to be an Old Republic Sith Lord and filtering for apprentices.

All he has to do is throw down a gauntlet and it'll attract people who like running gauntlets. This particular gauntlet is software engineering. Make a thing seem really hard and prestigious (even if it's artificially hard) and you'll attract the hyper-competitive people.
> Politicians were involved through donations. Whether to call that "compromised" is left as an exercise to the reader.

Plenty of people hopelessly throw money at politicians. Most get no remuneration. Again, there is a paranoid subculture that assumes every donation brings legislative power, and for them, this is a relevant story. Most do not because, in most cases, it does not.
> For example, things like getting a dog, signing up for cable TV, getting an unnecessarily expensive new phone, spending money on going out to eat, etc.

How much money do you think it takes to get out of poverty? Is not buying an iPhone and having an extra $1k, even - let's say they went big on the phone - "out of poverty"? That may not even be a month's rent, depending on location... to have security, you need many multiples of that.

> I don't give a single fuck about the salary of the 0.0001% of the population that is billionaire CEO, that's not the problem. The problem is that basic necessities have been turned into a profit-printing machine and you pay 2K a month for a 500 square feet apartment in London.

Interesting that you don’t see those things as part of the same problem but rather two separate unrelated issues.

It works on Chromium though. However it has trouble with UTF-8 obviously: it interprets "é" as "Ã©" i.e. ISO8859-15.

I see that for "French" it selects "Alain" as a voice in Chromium, but "Joe" in Firefox. However in Firefox I must first change the language, it then select another voice, and switching back to French, it switches properly to Alain then it works. It probably doesn't initialise properly the voice selector when loading the page in Firefox (if I don't change the language first, I can't select any voice, the selector isn't working).

Same problem with accents as Chromium though :)
Unless people close to him is willing to talk openly about it, I guess we'll never know.

He has to be good at something, maybe at taking bets and convincing people to give him money, like other HNr suggests. Who knows.
1) Sorry, what -

"... an anti-Semitic trope (let's call it what we all know it is) is enough to push it over the finish line."

What a huge assumption and massive misinterpretation by you. Holy hell.

You seem to be projecting that I must be Kayne West? I wasn't casually referencing Jewish people. Did I suggest ANYWHERE about Jewish people? No. I didn't. You made the assumption and then ban me on it.

I was being literal when I said to look at who has captured the mainstream media for your answers - and I didn't suggest nor was hinting at looking through a racial lens. Who would you put that as if asked that?

Do you know who I would put that as? If you look at the actual advertising revenues of MSM in the U.S. - it's something like 80% of ad revenues coming from the pharmaceutical industry; I'm sure if you search my comment history for "big pharma" you'll see plenty of distaste from me for that industry.

2) No "this is your final warning" message?

Firstly, as far as I remember I have only seen 2 of your "requests" replies in the past - and I remember the one email thread/interaction we had awhile ago.

I don't always check to see for responses to my comments, or not necessarily thoroughly if I do glance at comment history.

Don't you think it'd be the responsible, reasonable, and the fair thing to do is warn a person by email and/or confirm they have seen them - especially since there aren't Notifications as part of the HN interface? Don't you find it problematic in UI/UX that this isn't the case - that it's a failure in design to not highlight important messages from you?

3) I hope you'll unban me as I'm formally requesting here, especially as your premise for what "push[ed] it over the finish line" was a wrong assumption on your part.

I have Jewish ancestors and my grandfathers fought in both world wars - and I'll withhold the rest of my commentary as to how offensive your assertion is.

Otherwise now that I know you've requested/"warned" 5 previous times - and now that I know I'm "hovering in bannability" - I'll tone everything down.

I'd also highly recommend implementing a new mechanism to guarantee a commenter sees your comments/warnings. Maybe some kind of a 'prompt' or 'notify' flag that you hit that alerts to an unavoidable message to see your comment - or just everyone gets notified of your comments?

Maybe it'll make whomever you're warning take your requests/warnings more seriously as well - but at minimum it will guarantee they've seen it, and then there's a much higher probability they'll check their behaviour if they've actually seen your messages.

If flags set by you then perhaps a required confirmation by the user that 'yes, I've seen this warning/request' - and disabling commenting features until they click that they've seen it? That way you can also have a record and a situation can't arise where they claim they didn't see the majority of them - like I am claiming now, however that is the truth.

I hope you'll acknowledge your mistake and undo the action you took based on that mistake.

I've also emailed this to you.

Sadly, that was often the case in corporate America. In practical sense, firing 'for cause' were often just finding an appropriate level of 'excuse' to not have to pay unemployment.

I assume, this is a rather cynical way to cut additional costs.
Because billionaires own the media and they don't want anything to affect the status quo.

There are 12 million people under 65 living on social security benefits due to being disabled. ~38 million people are in poverty in the US right now. You can't just dismiss almost a third of people in poverty to make your argument work. And that's just the people too disabled to work at all. Plenty of people can only work part time.

And elderly poverty is also a thing.
Who's quality of life ?

Having a 4k TV and a smart fridge doesn't balance the degraded day to day working conditions, pays, longer hours, later retirement

Quality of life peaked somewhere in the 90s in the west, now it's all non essentials, people are giving up on the idea of owning their home and retiring healthy, &c.
To give you a sense of the tone of the book:

> In asking “What is live coding?,” our intention is not to fix or define
but rather to explore how live coding opens up. Live coding is about people interacting with the world, and each other, in real time, via code.4 Live coding is about making software live

This appears to be as much a manual as it is a philosophical book.
pytorch can use the GPUs on M1 macs. Sebastian Raschka's post explains it nicely and shows some benchmarks too. https://sebastianraschka.com/blog/2022/pytorch-m1-gpu.html

From his post:

if you want to run PyTorch code on the GPU, use torch.device("mps") analogous to torch.device("cuda") on an Nvidia GPU.
I was replying to "vile behaviour from Musk". There are many possible extra circumstances that would make it not "vile behaviour from Musk". E.g. it being someone under Musk doing the firing, the devs fired actually being grossly incompetent (I've met some really bad ones in my time), HR error leading to people being told they're fired but aren't, etc.
Honestly, I've been looking at just that in combination with agricultural/reforestation techs for a couple years now. Australia is way bigger than the maps make it look, Africa too. Find an area near a volcano you can rob and grind for soil and you'll do very well once energy is cheap enough. Due to climate change - esp in future - many locations will require heat control via shade (not too dense solar farms) and evaporation (of sea water on cardboard in one trial.)
No doubt the current food shortage is temporary, the solutions emerge inevitably from cheaper energy (and AI farm equipment.)

Yeah, it's like if you sell a multi-tool and realize that 90% of the time people just use the screwdriver. AB testing would tell you that you should make all the tools a screwdriver, but then you would have a shit multi-tool and no one would buy it except people that need a screwdriver.

This is what Amazon has done. They took their Marketplace and turned it into a search engine for the cheapest drop shipped product
It's certainly that all UTF-8 characters (like UTF-8 fancy quotes and double-quotes) aren't properly interpreted, everything seems to go through as ISO8859-15.
Fair enough, but only around the edges. I mean, it was definitely clear he would:

1. be laying off a shitload of people - he flat out said so pretty early on.

2. that he would drive those that remained extremely hard. Anyone who works at Tesla or SpaceX can verify that.

3. this is kind of a follow on from the first 2, but once it became clear about the financing behind the Twitter LBO, that Musk would be under a ton of pressure to reduce expenses and grow revenue just to pay off the additional billion dollars in annual interest.

Yes, the clown-show chaos is pretty extreme, even by Musk's standards. But a have no sympathy for anyone that still remains that doesn't have visa issues to worry about. And, indeed, I'd assume the only people who still are remaining are there by choice given all the great opportunities they've had to leave (3 months severance for quitting is a great deal).
> words can hurt people (Alex Jones)

Equating money losses with violence dilutes the term, and has a history of slipping into hurt feelings and blasphemy being tantamount to violence. There are crimes which may rise to the severity of violence. That doesn’t make them violence. Alex Jones incited violent. He, himself, was never violent. SBF perpetuated a massive fraud. He has not been connected with any violence.
>They looked at what we had put together and said, "My kids won't eat that."

This is very common for people I know these days (including my own kids, sadly). It is interesting that when I was young (and we were very, very poor) we (the kids) never had an option. We could eat what we were given or not eat at all, that was the choice we got. And we mostly ate what we were given.

And yet for me, even in google maps on my iphone, when I search for bakery, the first one is almost always one that's ~40 miles away, and the closest one is almost always the second in the list. The rest of the list is definitely not sorted descending by distance. If I've searched for a _particular_ ABC bakery, I get other bakeries commingled in the list even if I know damn well there are other ABC bakeries closer than those.
