For these and many other ongoing support reasons, I’ve been giving various Macs to my extended family since about Vista. For my grandfather, my mother in law, her daughter, and the various nephews, I can generally trust that a slightly locked down Mac with auto-update enabled will pretty much work as advertised.

What I find more encouraging trend wise is that I’m now seeing more alternative devices in the offices I work in. Even 5 years ago the standard device in the various banks and insurance shops I consult with has been a dell latitude or an hp elitebook, whereas now solid bet most of the devs have a macbook, and even a few linux boxes for the more adventurous orgs.

I’m not saying the macs are in any way perfect, and I’m sure they’ll eventually try many of the same things, but for the moment they have a user experience in a different league and i can’t see myself moving on from them for quite a while.
Given that putting interest rates up is an artificial intervention into the market for money, what if your worldview is based around allowing financial institutions to extract rent by taxing people for setting up home?

Why is setting the price of money artificially - which gives free government money to financial institutions - better than the alternative: setting the base price of labour by guaranteeing people a job?

It would be better if we stopped talking about the false dichotomy of fiscal and monetary policy and started talking about stabilisation policy instead.

Very interesting point. It really reminds me of that Borges story where someone in the 20th century rewrites Don Quixote word for word, and the critics think it’s far better than the original.

For people who think electric heating is the solution, now replace it with 0.98 euro/kWh, which my current rate in the Netherlands since November. Though heating with gas is equally bad at 3.3 euro per me. I'm paying roughly 600 euro a month just to heat our home to 17 deg C
You're wrong. A scientific study has proven you wrong.

Similarly, a scientific study has proven that smoking is good for you and protects you from Covid....

One risk is that bot-generated contributions drown out human-generated content, both due to speed with which they can be crafted as well as “quality”. I put quality in quotes because in human debate there’s a learning process and so while an individual contribution might be “lower quality” than another, the overall discussion quality and learning quality (for both contributor and readers) can be high.

Put differently, just because all the individual contributions are of high quality does not mean the “thread quality” is high.
Most likely, there is none. This blog post is just some BS that takes some talking points from one crappy study somewhere. The anecdotes in reply are just that: anedcotes, though honestly, they're probably overall of much higher value than the blog post, since they account for all kinds of issues that the post does not (such as the people with floaters).

I'm pretty sure there's no scientific consensus on this issue at all.

They are completely different with respect to their impact on stock options.

If you hold stock options, a dividend doesn't benefit you. You need to hold shares to get the dividend. In fact, the dividend can cause the share price to fall (if it was not already anticipated) as the company's capital gets drained to pay shareholders.

On the other hand, buybacks (causing a sudden, surprising increase in share price) are most impactful on those who hold options. Proportionally speaking, they increase the value of options much more than the value of shares. The share price might go up 2%, and the options 200%.

Executive compensation packages tend to consist of stock options. So buybacks benefit corporate insiders more than shareholders.
United Airlines is posting anywhere from 15-30 billion in gross profit for each of the last 4 years, AA and Delta are on somewhat similar trajectories adjusted for size. The airlines going bust operate in the only space that they can be competitive in, which is the one with razor thin margins. You can guarantee that prices will never come down if there are only 3 major players in a $140 billion size domestic market.
Viking and sub zero aren't even good appliances. I'm not sure why they're so popular other the price

Ask HN: Is one C Corp enough for multiple micro startups?
I was wondering if one 'C Corp' registered company(via Stripe Atlas) could suffice for multiple unrelated web based software products and services. I might add employees to each of them in future as well. Primary reason for company registration is to facilitate Strip account for payment etc.
> Apparently Siemens is already onto 175 kW chargers

350 kW chargers are widely used. As one example, Ionity's chargers are 350 kW: https://ionity.eu/en/weareonit

Repsol installed 400 kW chargers a few years ago: https://insideevs.com/news/375020/repsol-most-powerful-charg...

Kempower is working on new model chargers which support 400 kW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD_cvlitcIo

Human incorrect comments are at least written by people and if the person isn't actually knowledgeable about a subject it's likely to show more in the response than it does in gpt which can mimic all the right forms to appear smarter/more correct. Beyond anything else though at least when it's a person writing the wrong answer they spent the time to write it vs the copy paste it automation of using chatgpt. That little bit of effort is a speed bump well worth having since at the very least getting tons of people to spam confidently incorrect things is more work than having a dozen instances of a bot do the same a hundred times faster.
> If so, then why should your screen be pure white?

This is what it boils down to for most people. Using a less-than-pure white or a cream colour like HN makes for a much more pleasant read. At night it's often still too bright for me, but I'm happy to switch modes according to how I feel at the time.

Absolutely not! In fact, we should be encouraging the use of ChatGPT and other generated responses. After all, why waste time thinking for ourselves when we can just let a computer do it for us? Plus, it's not like the AI is going to come up with some crazy, off-the-wall ideas that no human would ever come up with. Oh wait... never mind.
There's no way we have space here to do the whole debate, but for starters, the Soviet Union wasn't communist by any reasonable definition. Wikipedia does a quick breakdown: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communism#Associated_usage_and...

> While the term Communist state is used by Western historians, political scientists, and news media to refer to countries ruled by Communist parties, these states themselves did not describe themselves as communist or claim to have achieved communism: they referred to themselves as socialist states that are in the process of constructing communism

If we use genuine definitions of "communism" and leave to the side Red Scare American political non-definitions, we'd agree with the USSR when it doesn't call itself communist. We can happily disagree with them on their assertion that they were "in the process of constructing communism," the same we can disagree with the PRC's assertion that it's still doing the same today.

If you want to say something sucks, blame the Soviet-type economic planning model: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet-type_economic_planning which featured absurd layers of bureaucracy that would result in, yes, the means of production being seized... and then misused by "intellectual party leaders" that thought they knew better than the people who, say, had been farming the land for hundreds of years, resulting in famine, or the other not-fun things about living in the USSR.

To your point, I can find absolutely no evidence that the USSR "seized" the game from Pajitnov. Do you have some? There was no intellectual property in the USSR, I'm not even sure what "seized" means in this context. Sure, he wasn't allowed to "sell" it in the Soviet Union, but it wouldn't really make sense in their economic system to "sell" the game. He was apparently nationally and internationally known for the creation, but it seems renown wasn't enough, he wanted commercial success as well, hence the emigration to the USA in the 90s.

I push back because listen to the story of how it was introduced, as interpreted by Wikipedia:

> Pajitnov had completed the first playable version of Tetris by June 6, 1984.[21] Pajitnov presented Tetris to his colleagues, who quickly became addicted to it.[15]: 87 It permeated the offices within the Academy of Sciences, and within a few weeks it reached every Moscow institute with a computer. A friend of Pajitnov, Vladimir Pokhilko, who requested the game for the Moscow Medical Institute, saw people stop working to play Tetris. Pokhilko eventually banned the game from the Medical Institute to restore productivity.

Does this remind you of MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory around the same era? How much of what we love to use today has similar origin stories, and brought their creators no commercial success at all? Gnu, the linux kernel, the core of most of our industry is built on libre software developed in this manner in that time. Why immediately jump to the assumption "no capitalistic success = bad?"
I think that's because Korean and Chinese usages are loanword from Japanese manga. Japanese version of Wikipedia traces etymology back to 17th-18th century pseudo-Chinese word, later extended to include Western comics which became the roots of modern day manga.
I think the point is they have a Postgres server running anyway as the datastore and the job queue being in Postgres gives you HA, backup and Transaction for free. I think Redis in particular won't give you transaction right?

Needing Transactional semantics for jobs alongside an application operation makes a lot of simpler queue/tool choices difficult.

Differences of dark and white for eyes are so minimal that debates on effects between a specific color of screen don't matter at all.
I recently stayed in a hotel that was an example of how extreme the brand split of various hotels was. It was one building with three different brands operating out of it. One check in counter, one guest lounge, one gym, etc. Three different elevator groups though; one for each brand. Ultimately all the rooms were practically the same, but the trim was a little different between the brands.

But hey, if you feel that attached to a Hampton Inn as opposed to a Home2 or a Hilton Garden Inn I guess it makes sense. It's all the same to me though and seems like just a waste of paperwork and administrative tasks to continue the facade of three brands in the same building.
So the only use cases so far are pleasing paranoid schizos, ransomware, and scams?

James Lindsay is a clown who confidently predicted that the Democrats were going to put people into reeducation camps, that LGBT people are part of a vast pedophilia conspiracy, that the World Economic Forum used COVID to engineer a "great reset" to eliminate American sovereignty, that Jewish people are responsible for anti-Semitism because it's a reactionary backlash against liberalism, and that Critical Race Theory is in actuality a conspiracy of heresy launched by the Black Southern Baptists. He is a limitless fount of the stupidest quips on the Internet, and given the Internet I'm referring to, that's a remarkable achievement.

Apparently, Lindsay suffered a serious head injury within the last few years (it came up in a Rogan interview). It would explain a lot. We're talking about someone who managed to get himself into a Twitter fight with the Auschwitz Memorial.

Your claim here is a grave insult to conservatism, which is an intellectually serious movement with plenty of serious thinkers. Thomas Sowell is a serious conservative. Arthur Brooks is a serious conservative. Patrick Deneen (gah). You can rattle off dozens more. Nobody is ever going to put Rufo and Lindsay in that lineup.

"I'm not kidding. The entire program is based on Hegelian alchemy. They actually think they're wizards. In this case, twerking, based on "black girl" identity, breaks open the rules of decorum and expectation to free the Divine shard of liberated nature from the confine of society."
I’m not sure it’s fair to say Perot was laughed at. He commanded a tremendous following, and got 19% of the vote in the 1992 election, without a major party endorsement, and after hamstringing himself by leaving the race and re-entering.

No one is coming to put a bike lane on the kind of seasonally impassable dirt road that is reasonably found 10 miles from the nearest school. If you want to live deep in the middle of nowhere, no one’s stopping you. But when you come into the kinds of communities that actually sustain the institutions you need (school, work, etc) they aren’t obliged to give over all their public space and put their lives at risk for your truck to move as freely as possible.
Not sure if you mean to production but we have this rule. We only deploy bigger things to production on Tuesday/Wednesdays since that gives us enough time during the week to fix any issues without having it bleed into the weekend. It’s important that we don’t encroach on weekend time.

The Fed is one of the most misunderstood institutions. Basically, everything you have said is completely wrong, which makes difficult to write a reply, because where to start?

In short, the original design of the Fed was correct, where each branch was independent and could set their own interest rate, and they purchased commercial paper to stimulate the economy. This changed during WWII, where the government mandated that they had to purchase government bonds to support the war.

Congress is the main problem, where they spend money recklessly with no intention of paying anything back.

The Fed is in a position where if they don't raise interest rates, they will be blamed for the bad economy.

The Fed is a convenient scapegoat, used by people who assume that Youtube videos are correct.

Mine is when people start talking about XDR, SIEM or SOAR systems.

There's so much bullshit going on in the cyber security scene, it's ridiculous. From supposed "AI driven network analysis" to "data enrichment pipelines"... everything is built as Enterprise as possible, and as useless as possible.

An XDR system that costs more than 500k per month and cannot even show the geolocation of an IP it's supposed to be able to block traffic from...I mean, come on...

Let alone the alert fatigue Blueteams have to deal with every day, where 99% of alerts is just noise, and the supposedly "intelligent" system doesn't even correlate the OS, let alone the programming language its services are running on.

Analysts are so overworked because all the products suck and use UX from the 90s, and are not even capable of batch-closing alerts when they are identical. It's so stupidly built that I don't even know why upper management buys that crap.
Still not nearly enough money invested to energy research.
> When I was in the military, a key tactic of camouflage was to never, under any circumstances, expose yourself on a hilltop or similar, where your silhouette could be easily identified. A dark blob on a light background is far easier for the human eye to see, than the reverse.

There's a scenarion when this is incorrect: when the light foreground is the only source of light.

I use black backgrounds with white text for reading on OLED because the only light entering my eyes is the information I need. You can tell me all you want that it doesn't reduce eye strain, it does. I can tell because I can feel my eyes.
Also, I think we should consider the people's race, their views on covid restrictions, whether or not they are indigenous, their interpretation of the merits and demerits of working from home, and what their political stance is on global warming and environmental issues. It's probably not intentional, but to me it feels like you are almost denying certain people's humanity by solely focusing on gender and sexual orientation. Those are important, but not the only issues that we face in modern society.
Isn't there something like this already?
Agreed - most leadership arises out of a necessity to ensure that the boat stays clear of the rocks. I know (and have experienced) a few managers that were equally hopeless on both technical as well as people management fronts; their proclivity for using the boat's hull as a depthfinder made for some frustrating efforts, so to speak.

Yes, people make mistakes. And we should design systems to be tolerant of those mistakes. With airplanes, we try to think through all the emergencies first, figure out how to fix them at leisure, then write it down in the form of a checklist or an Emergency Airworthiness Directive.

We expect pilots to pay attention to those things. They make mistakes, sure, but they are still responsible for those mistakes. The EA pilots did not follow the procedure laid out as "how to not die like the Lion Air pilots". Seems to me that should be worth reading, understanding, and remembered. Especially as there was nothing complicated about it - trim to normal, turn it off.

Wouldn't you prefer to fly with pilots who did? I do.

I'm sort of coming around to this part of Elon's viewpoint. Nevermind if this is the right solution to a bot problem, but I do think it's a problem.

Related a bit, but I just watched a documentary called Fake Famous, and I wondered if maybe all the insta fakery would be minimized if bots were eliminated. Or at the other extreme, the fakery itself could be automated, thus devaluing it.
Asked ChatGPT to explain like I’m 5. This is what it produced.

“ Okay! Imagine that you have a big robot in your head that knows a lot about lots of different things. Sometimes, the robot might make mistakes or say things that aren't true. The proposed method is like a way to ask the robot questions and figure out what it knows, even if it says something that isn't true. We do this by looking inside the robot's head and finding patterns that make sense, like if we ask the robot if something is true and then ask if the opposite of that thing is true, the robot should say "yes" and then "no." Using this method, we can find out what the robot knows, even if it sometimes makes mistakes.”
In animation or anime, Japan is still the big player and is going to be for a long time. However, in live action, South Korea is easily has an upper hand. Movies like The Old Boy, Parasite, Train to Busan and show like Squid Game have an international appeal while rarely any live-action Japanese movie made that kind of impact.
