OG Facebook Post by Carmack:

```
I resigned from my position as an executive consultant for VR with Meta. My internal post to the company got leaked to the press, but that just results in them picking a few choice bits out of it. Here is the full post, just as the internal employees saw it:
-------------
This is the end of my decade in VR.
I have mixed feelings.
Quest 2 is almost exactly what I wanted to see from the beginning – mobile hardware, inside out tracking, optional PC streaming, 4k (ish) screen, cost effective. Despite all the complaints I have about our software, millions of people are still getting value out of it. We have a good product. It is successful, and successful products make the world a better place. It all could have happened a bit faster and been going better if different decisions had been made, but we built something pretty close to The Right Thing.
The issue is our efficiency.
Some will ask why I care how the progress is happening, as long as it is happening?
If I am trying to sway others, I would say that an org that has only known inefficiency is ill prepared for the inevitable competition and/or belt tightening, but really, it is the more personal pain of seeing a 5% GPU utilization number in production. I am offended by it.
[edit: I was being overly poetic here, as several people have missed the intention. As a systems optimization person, I care deeply about efficiency. When you work hard at optimization for most of your life, seeing something that is grossly inefficient hurts your soul. I was likening observing our organization's performance to seeing a tragically low number on a profiling tool.]
We have a ridiculous amount of people and resources, but we constantly self-sabotage and squander effort. There is no way to sugar coat this; I think our organization is operating at half the effectiveness that would make me happy. Some may scoff and contend we are doing just fine, but others will laugh and say “Half? Ha! I’m at quarter efficiency!”
It has been a struggle for me. I have a voice at the highest levels here, so it feels like I should be able to move things, but I’m evidently not persuasive enough. A good fraction of the things I complain about eventually turn my way after a year or two passes and evidence piles up, but I have never been able to kill stupid things before they cause damage, or set a direction and have a team actually stick to it. I think my influence at the margins has been positive, but it has never been a prime mover.
This was admittedly self-inflicted – I could have moved to Menlo Park after the Oculus acquisition and tried to wage battles with generations of leadership, but I was busy programming, and I assumed I would hate it, be bad at it, and probably lose anyway.
Enough complaining. I wearied of the fight and have my own startup to run, but the fight is still winnable! VR can bring value to most of the people in the world, and no company is better positioned to do it than Meta. Maybe it actually is possible to get there by just plowing ahead with current practices, but there is plenty of room for improvement.
Make better decisions and fill your products with “Give a Damn”!

Twitter and tech companies are regularly threatened with additional regulation and their executives called before Congress. This is the pressure. It’s already taken place and it’s ongoing. Sure, they could sue. They might or might not win. And Congress can make their life difficult in either outcome. There’s not much you do about that since, very nominally, Congress is supposed to represent the people and not security state interests.

This comment also totally ignores the fact that the “Twitter files” have also contributed to the realization that these companies are riddled with ex-FBI and other government employees who were partly responsible for responding to these requests, let alone the idea of corporate employees toadying up to the government security state is incompatible with democracy whether or not someone could hypothetically sue.

Also, it’s great to hear my duty is to sue the government if it does wrong. That’s true. That also works out very badly for people all the time and entails spending a lot of money and years of your life on an uncertain outcome.

These stories are additional proof the FBI needs huge reforms and mass layoffs. It’s still the agency of J Edgar Hoover, who to this day was in charge for nearly half its existence. But the culture of these tech companies is also extremely concerning.

And even moreso, as I said in my original comment (and which you misunderstood even in your response), the shocking part is that people think this is fine, and nobody is asking who and what has caused such a massive shift in American beliefs.
> a familiar scenario (one number being afraid of another number)

This phrase stood out as especially indicative of how little it "understands", even more than its inability to explain the punchline. The unfamiliar anthropomorphizing is the critical part to set up an otherwise fairly weak joke.
FTX was also audited by a top firm, Armanino!Changed nothing...

In the article says:
Following the collapse of FTX, Paul MacIntosh, EY’s US financial services crypto co-leader, said on LinkedIn that proof of reserves reports do not assess companies’ internal controls, “which ultimately was the downfall of FTX”.

Just because you're not an MP doesn't mean you can't have huge influence - Farage obviously being the most prominent example.

Brexit Trade Minister - my typo should have been Post Brexit Trade Minister - but he was clearly in Govt in 2019 contrary to your claim.
We've been using the excuse that the internet "turned off" for now. It does actually happen around here, because I guess running an ISP in 2022 is harder than in 1999?

Anyway, my son is 7 and that probably won't work too much longer. We generally don't have imposed limits but if it's getting pretty late we'll just kill the internet on the device. This works pretty well because he plays all games on Xbox Play, mainly Fortnite. I honestly don't care if he sits and plays for hours because I did that around his age. The problem is, games were much harder back then because you played something like Contra 3 and lost and you basically wanted to throw the controller in the garbage. Now games are too easy.

He has been discouraged to play the Solo/Duos/Trio's in Fortnite because it can be a hard game. He mainly plays the "custom games" now and if he's on too long I'll just connect and go into the game and beat him a bunch of times until he's discouraged and turns it off. haha.

I don't know what to do when he's older, because I had no time limits on anything. I just generally balanced it out myself
OSM isn't the be-all and end-all of GIS data. It's very incomplete in places and doesn't always spatially match with Bing's data or other sources.

> is the only valueadd redefining the format to be more enterprisey andor gatekeep some data

I'd like to interpret that in the "strongest possible" way as HN's guidelines request, but I can't find one. This is the opposite of what the article says.

> Therefore, Overture is intended to be complementary to OSM. We combine OSM with other sources to produce new open map data sets. Overture data will be available for use by the OpenStreetMap community under compatible open data licenses. Overture members are encouraged to contribute to OSM directly.
Ironic that the first time I made a donation to archive.org was through a banner above a page against micropayments.
I read Atomic habits by James Clear which set me off on a rather interesting personal journey. Didn’t think i would enjoy the book but i found it rather interesting.
You know, there is this flashy new language called Rust. Not that well known yet, I admit.

It doesn't have any of the above in the standard library, apart from threads, and it seems to be doing fine...

Building a language is a massive amount of work already.
Building out a reasonable cross platform standard library is a huge amount of work on top.

These things can easily provided by libraries. (apart from concurrency)

Besides, if you look at the commit history, the language doesn't seem to be developed anymore anyway, just a few commits in the last year.

You really need to squint at the sun to conclude that.

As money interests have become more politically powerful, it’s harder and harder for employees to organize. You can get fired at Walmart if 4 people are caught talking to each other.

It’s easy to rag on unions, but usually that’s a surface complaint ignoring the factors causing it. Even globalization is an example. There’s nothing etched in stone that says we need to have child labor mining in Africa for rare earth minerals to make iPhones.
If you believe in the ideal of open specifications, it is something that you root for. Probably at least half the desire for dominance is coming from that motivation. The other half from normal profit motive. I guarantee that Intel and Qualcomm have the same aspirations of dominance.

A concert ticket is not a digital good. The service is given to you at the concert itself, therefore the country in which the concert is, is the country where you will pay taxes.
Ironically, these same people were bending over backward to protect and justify obvious Russian propaganda in America during the Soviet era.
i dont think people revolt because they feel bad when they compare themselves to the 1%. People revolt because they have nothing to lose. Their material conditions are the most important thing in this equation. I'm sure that a populace can tolerate inequality to a point (look at the inequality in the US and Europe, for example) but once a large enough slice of the population has nothing to lose then it's choppy boy time.
I have a routine that I have kept for the last few years after going through similar (and working through it with my therapist). It's very routine based which works for me.

I start my morning with going through any assigned GitHub pull requests plus any new Jira or Confluence notifications. It can take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour or two, but once it's done I don't look at those again until the next morning.

I check Slack after and clear out any unread messages, taking care of any actionable ones that need a reply right there. I leave Slack mostly on until the morning standup since I am a morning person.

After standup, I mark myself as away and then check it a little after lunch and once more before I am done for the day.

I have never had anyone complain about me being unavailable with this setup. If there's a 'true' emergency they can nudge me on iMessage but that's happened once in 3 years.

Good luck figuring this out.
Oh boy. I can't wait/am dreading, to see what the Bad Actors do with this one.

"Dear Santa,

For Christmas I would like an Electric Boogaloo, and a dustpan and brush to sweep away all the bad people from this neighborhood YOU KNOW WHO I MEAN!!!..."
Aren't there examples against this nowadays? E-Scooters are payed by the minute, even though not provided by monopolists. Mobile games with in-app purchases are very similar to micro-payments, too and power a whole industry.

The monopolist examples, like mobile and power companies don't translate well, as these companies provide services, that are continuously consumed, vs. one of purchases. For these companies, micro payments maybe don't make sense. But for lot's of other one of content, micro payments seem far superior over subscriptions.

To me, it feels, the article proves, that micropayments are crap if used for the wrong kind of products...
I agree, GitHub should consider adding this feature.
Some people oppose all 'hierarchies', and say that is anarchism, but it is clear those are different words, and good luck getting rid of hierarchies without mass genocide, unless that is the real purpose.
They would do better by sponsoring native GNU/Linux games, or even ports from other POSIX like platforms like Playstation/Android, instead of playing OS/2 with Windows games.

I don’t have any real opinion about the direction of causality. If anything the idea of unions contributing to more wage equality makes sense to me. But, linking to a single study as “proof” of anything is a big no no. It is very easy to cherry pick studies so that you get the “true” outcome. The only way to make a halfway convincing argument is to look at every piece of evidence on the question and aggregate them. This is why we believe global warming is man made and severe despite a few studies that suggest otherwise. One other caveat I would add is that if you read the linked study, they’re only reporting correlations. There doesn’t appear to be a causal identification strategy there. Which isn’t to say it isn’t interesting and worthwhile. Only that one should take the results with an appropriate level of caution.

Why are these "opposites"? All these companies need and invest in Linux.
> why does JavaScript need a false and an empty array and a null and even an undefined?)

Why does Lisp need a 0 and a nil? Because numbers are conceptually different from lists, and the number 0 is conceptually different from no number at all.

Why does JavaScript need a false and an empty array and a null and an undefined? Because all of those represent different concepts. Trying to stuff as many concepts as possible into a single representation doesn't necessarily make a language better (though I'm certainly not claiming that JavaScript is the epitome of good language design).
Because Finland is a great example of unions working for the benefit of employees? Why are we constrained to only discussing how (some, not all) unions are in the US?
I hate to be so negative, but I think this is an awful addition to the web. It speaks authoritatively ("This song is about...") but appears to draw on the text of the song alone with none of the context available elsewhere.

I searched Ben Folds Five's "Brick," which is avowedly a song about abortion. Songtell has no idea, of course, because the allusions in the song are too oblique to be deciphered out of context.

I wish people wouldn't use AI to drown out the real information available on the web. At the very least, these pages should come with a disclaimer and meta tags/robots.txt preventing search engines from picking them up as facts.
>Some at the top still benefit from unearned deference.

Indeed. Quote a bit of Latin in a posh accent at most British people and they seem to completely take leave of their senses. A bit like the tonic immobility you can induce in some animal by turning them over and stroking them. This is why we have had ridiculous figures like Johnson and Rees Mogg in positions of power.
As the one making the assertion of illegality in terms of the GDPR, the onus is on you to provide a substantive justification for it. Not me.
European unions have their roots in revolutionary communism. They then evolved towards social democracy, which is effectively a compromise between socialism and capitalism. This social compromise, where the unions accepted market economy and private property and the employers accepted moderate unions, made the unions what they are today.

American unions evolved in another direction. Because there was no serious risk of a communist revolution, the employers had no need to comromise. Both the employers and the unions remain more confrontational than in Europe.
Good question! I can’t even guesstimate.
> It's unfair and annoying that laggards are protected and free riding off their colleagues' (my) effort

With your unionized coworkers that might be a possibility. With the business owners that’s a certainty. Do you feel differently about these two groups of people?

It was pretty close. "Literal" isn't right, "cognitively primed" would be the actual explanation. But at least it figured out the correct two different meanings of bar that were in play in the joke.
This is bizarre.

Of course there is not one single factor determining the economic, technical and social development of countries over decades of time.

But the relationship between unions, the labor movement, and social democratic policies is obvious.

Those in turn have had a large impact on equality and standard of living.

The economy benefits from having a larger base of well off consumers, and a well educated, healthy, non-striking labor force. It's a self reinforcing positive spriral.
In LISP, the cheap / straightforward operation is attaching things to the front of a list.

Appending to the rear of a list is (usually) going to be the more expensive operation (naively, doing so requires walking all the way to the end of the list, because lists are more like linked list constructs than arrays that silently resize as needed).

I don't know if this is a general question or specifically about carrots, but:

Carrots keep under refrigeration exceptionally well. They transport well. They're not like peaches, which are either in-season and fantastic, or out-of-season and thus flown in from somewhere else, really expensive, and lousy.

Good chefs know this.
The above comment was clearly in response to another comment about how Americans feel about unions, thus it is obvious it was looking at American unions.
APPEND is for concatenating two lists. If you're trying to add a value, then if your NIL is already in a variable, use PUSH to add the value (to the front). This will build the result list in reverse, so you can NREVERSE it at the end.
I, personally, think that the FOSS movement should cede the ground to Apple on the "I'm having a shit and shouting at a device" market.

I genuinely think they're better suited to it.
All great points. To add:
As someone who's worked blue collar jobs, it is all too common for unions to protect assholes from getting fired. This leads to a hostile work environment created by the "high seniority" workers.

Something I don't like whenever these discussions come up is the condescending tone, from white collar workers. "Don't these poor people know what's good for them????"

Working class people are capable of thinking for themselves and it's not that uncommon for people to move from a union shop to a non-union shop due to the reasons outlined above.

Change isn't friction free, and therefore it isn't "free" except if you count your time for nothing. It takes weeks or months to reinstall things that work fine as they are.

I love new things that are actually new and that bring a clear benefit; Windows 10 isn't "new", it's the same thing with the UI arranged in a slightly different way for no reason.

A computer is like a hammer. When you're used to one, and you suddenly decide to use another one, it takes time to feel its proper balance and use it with the same efficiency as the previous one. You can have two hammers that you use regularly; but changing hammers every year just because there's a new one with a handle in a different color is absurd IMHO.

i.e. complying with compulsory government regulation enacted for those ends, which is a huge barrier to entry.

for example, the platform can't commingle funds in a single bank account and use accounting to keep track of who is owned which beans. they have to set up separate bank accounts for each user!
Mind elaborating on what you mean by innovation?

This post is funny because the author uses ChatGPT to explain the joke in the title, which is that ChatGPT can't explain the jokes. But then, the comment written by ChatGPT itself tries to explain why the joke in the title is funny, but in doing so, it just further highlights the fact that it can't understand the jokes. It's a never-ending cycle of AI attempting to understand humor, but ultimately failing and adding to the joke itself.
Sure, we can do that.

My argument is just, and has always been, that this is a novel right that is not covered by existing legislation.
Trying to appeal with the “future elections” angle is amusing. Many on that “winning side” blame FBI interference for losing in 2016. So you would think your appeal would carry weight, yet it doesn’t. One wonders why?

If you haven't tried Jadx [1], give it a shot. It's by far the easiest way to reverse Android APKs. It doesn't do patching or reassembly, but I used it for reversing the Delong'hi APK for longshot [2][3] and the quality of output was fantastic.

Note that scripts like this are extremely useful, but in the long term they're cobbling together a lot of tools and will become brittle or difficult to use across versions. I suggest that even if it works for you today, understanding exactly what's happening under the hood will help if the tool becomes unsupported long-term.
