My understanding is that in the US this kind of thing doesn't work on "need to" basis. It's something planes broadcast (for air traffic control reasons) unencrypted, anyone can receive it, there is nothing banning people "hearing" unencrypted radio from telling others what they hear. (Similarly to how police scanners or listening to ATC radio is legal)

"Their own servers" has always existed, just look at Truth Social. And in the same way you don't have to go to that site, Mastodon supports blocking entire instances.

Lots of instances also screen signups. There's no requirement for them to accept everyone. The server that Marcan (M1 Linux) and Alyssa Rosenzweig (Linux GPU drivers) are on claim a total of 700 active users for example. You'll still get new content as your users can boost (retweet) from other servers, while they act as gatekeepers by not boosting others.

Tumblr announced they would join the Fediverse. That would be interesting. Of course nothing stops Twitter from joining either.

Not the OP but yes absolutely. At medium sized USA companies it's common (not universal) for new team members to be discovered and or interviewed and or hired by the team that they will be working with. HR/recruiters are just trying to feed the interview pipeline. Possibly the at-will nature of USA jobs feeds into this. Bad hires are less risky without long term employment contracts.

I'm interested in your experience as well. Even at the largest US orgs there's still the concept of a 'hiring manager', who leads a small team, has a big role in hiring, and can can do meaningful technical work on the system. So the interviewing ability of these people, and the people that they trust, is the main determinant of the engineering hiring decisions that get made. Like a common interview loop would be hiring manager, (2x)senior/staff dev on the team, senior dev on another team, director. Lots of exceptions and opportunities for random consultants/reorganizations from above, but the basic idea of line employees and managers being able to identify their successors is pretty baked in around here. Can't speak for the east coast though

Hilariously the gap is widening, perhaps because people love a dogpile.

But on another level, I really feel like there is nobody that is willing to tell him to get off the internet for a few days. Publicly torturing yourself this way is not healthy.

I am not famous, but I have been a 'main character' in a negative national news story before, attracting ~10,000 unfriendly comments just on one website. On one level you're inoculated from them as you realize the extent of the gap between the report and reality, so there isn't as much pressure to take them personally. But on another you're turning your own stress response up by reading all that negativity (or 'posting through it' if you were to start responding to people), like how exercising and developing toughness can go too far and end up with joint damage or torn muscles. Yet this is very much the hard-driving persona and work ethos that Musk publicly seeks to cultivate.

And it's been that way all week, what with him getting booed loudly on Monday. A friend who worked the show in a technical capacity described it as being painfully awkward, as Musk stood there like a prop and essentially slow-roasted for 5 minutes. This is a thing professional comedians are inured to whereas Musk was neither prepared nor equipped for it. In a context where his wealth didn't generate the usual aura of popularity, he got a painful lesson in others' perceptions of him. That's not the sort thing you can just buy a fix for.
> They want free speech for themselves and censorship for people they don't like.

This is probably true, but it also describes Twitter prior to the takeover.

If anything is clear to me, it's that it seems impossible to have a completely neutral/fair public forum. Or perhaps it is possible, but people dislike the opposition so much they aren't interested in using it.

I was also laid off earlier last month. Comments like yours would scare me.

So I hope I don't come across as rude or anything, but I want to provide a counter-anecdote.

I was laid off in very early November. I took about 2 weeks just to get over about 80% of my saltiness at what I considered to be a betrayal. (I won't go into detail, forgive me, I'm still not able to talk about it without being salty yet.)

I then asked my two best tech friends (1 from college, 1 from my first job) for referrals to the companies they worked at. I did 2 interview loops, got 2 offers, and picked one. I got a ~10k raise over my last position in the process, though mostly out of region arbitrage (last job was geo-adjusting me down ~10% whereas my new job was not, but it's a smaller company and an earlier stage company, so less cash to sling around, but more equity).

(for the record, I have 9 years of experience and the position is "senior software engineer" which was the same as the job I got laid off from).

So - to all you fellow laid off peoples - don't rely on anecdotes from strangers on the internet. I wouldn't have ever made this post as a top-level post, but I hope my 2c calms folks a bit.

(And for the record... I was intending/expecting to apply to more than 2 companies, but I was a bit sick of applying to companies where I didn't have an inside opinion on the culture bc I felt like I got burned by tha tlast time, so I gave these 2 companies (where I did have that inside opinion) the benefit of being the only 2 companies in my first salvo of interviewing, so I could give them extra attention. And I happened to get an offer I really liked at a company I feel good about, so I took it, even if I guess I probably could've optimized a few more k of base pay if I'd grabbed more/bigger companies in my first round.)
> All we need now is for some brave soul to improve Scala 3 support for treesitter,

Brave soul is an understatement.
Not really, that is solved with aliases. The problem really comes to life when using strongly typed generic functions that must be generic over their return type. This most notably occurs with Rust iterators. Try writing out the type of this thing explicitly:

let pos_nums = v.iter().map(|s| s.parse::<u64>().unwrap()).filter(|n| n > 0);

Hint: you literally can't in current Rust because closures have Voldemort types, you can't name their type. And even if you could, the resulting type would be horrendous.

I think it's a perfectly reasonable rule. Most of the reporting on where people go will not suffer from having a next-day delay on social media.

H1B is a dual intent visa. It has never been just temporary, the idea that H1B workers can seek permanent residence is built into the visa. (It is not built into most other visas.)

That's quite the generous interpretation even if the OP wasn't a posting about mastodon, a social network that directly competes with Twitter, and had nothing to do with any of the reasons you think Elon Musk is a victim in all of this.
In a word, Hypocrisy. Everyone is up in arms for Hypocrisy.

Musk's statement was that free speech would be allowed on Twitter. And yet, here he is chilling free speech. It's not surprising. It's just also really bad. So people are up in arms that they're losing a platform that, while by no means perfect, was better for free speech than it currently is.

Newer cars weren’t the only thing socialist kleptocrats were found to be hoarding. They had all sorts of luxury goods from the West ranging from fashion, jewelry, and even food.

I don’t deny that late stage capitalism will happen or is happening as we speak, but socialism isn’t immune to corruption either. Late stage socialism also happens much sooner than late stage capitalism because power is so much more concentrated in socialist systems. We know this because we’ve had plenty of failed socialism experiments in the 20th century

sure, this is pretty standard. how many apps has google shutdown? if google shuts down gmail tomorrow, you'll lose your email. theres an entire site memorializing hundreds of apps google has killed, some of them *very* popular[0]

however, the creators of mastodon have made it super easy to download backups of your follows, your blocklists, etc... and you can import them on any server. so even if that were to happen, you can easily setup another account and be running again.

unlike any of the closed social sites, with mastodon, if one server were to close, the network will be fine.

In Europe it's not always legal to listen to unencrypted radio transmissions if you're not the intended recipient, but this is heavily country dependent and not rabbit hole worth diving into here.

But what's definitely not legal anywhere in the EU is to record unencrypted radio transmissions, use it to construct a database full of PII, and distribute it like Flightradar and friends do.

Atom was a success on all fronts. I'd be willing to wager than if you search for code editors for any kind of a front-end language, in the top 100 results (listicles, whatever) you'll find Atom mentioned in more than 50% of them.

Yes and no; while the second hop (recursive resolver) won't know the client's IP/geo, we've chosen to locate the first and second hops very near each other in terms of network latency and, eventually, to roll out enough first hops so that there won't be much (region-scale) geographic distance between the client, the first hop, and the second hop. This would require a slight modification to the existing mechanism. (A client could include ECS as is, but it'd be bad for their privacy.)

Are recent tech layoffs revenue related or top down instructions from VC?
Since Twitter's layoff by the new boss, it seems that more tech companies are following suit, citing various reasons, especially like economy downturn. How true is that? It feels that investors are the one dictating the layoff, seeing that Twitter operates 'just fine', that growth at all cost strategy can be culled, and that this is the best time and opportunity to announce layoff witbout much backlash.

Given past performance, along with behavior like banning links to Mastodon, it's also completely fair to guess that Musk is likely lying again. It's a common behavior of his, and far more likely than some of these journalists lying, when the journalists could easily be proven wrong, at great cost to themselves. Musk pays no penalty for lying.

Edit: that said, there could be some small tenuous grain of truth to what Musk thinks happened...

There might technically be enough Americans who would like to make FAANG-level wages and know how to use a computer and are willing to be an engineer.

But there's definitely not enough Americans skilled enough for those jobs.

Should FAANG be forced to train Americans rather than hire H1B workers? I don't know.

It's a mystery to me they bring people to the US instead of just employ them in other countries in the first place.

But if the US didn't allow H1B workers, they definitely would.

Should American companies not be able to have foreign offices staffed with foreign workers? I don't know.

But this sounds like a recipe for handicapping American companies vs global competitor...

Here's one company you can hire: https://prehensile-tales.com
> In fact, a 2017 Glassdoor study found that the wages of H-1B workers were 2.8% higher than their American counterparts

The problem with this is that H1B workers work a lot more than 2.8% harder, on average, and companies know this.

Many H1B workers are practically abused. They may be doing the work of two engineers. Unlike a typical work relationship between an upper-middle class professional and a tech company, separating from the company may not be realistic recourse because the work-visa immigration status is a Damoclean sword.

I've seen this bite even harder for L1B immigrants who work for multinational tech companies and get lured to the US from abroad, because even if you find another company willing to sponsor your H1B you are still subject to the caps. It's pretty messed up.

While I agree with your last paragraph I would like to quote Robert Caro talking about power:

"But although the cliche says that power always corrupts, what is seldom said ... is that power always reveals. When a man is climbing, trying to persuade others to give him power, concealment is necessary. ... But as a man obtains more power, camouflage becomes less necessary."

Elon is definitely a victim of capitalism and patriarchy to some degree, as are other billionaire. But they are also the main beneficiaries ans can wipe away their tears with hundred dollar bills, blackjack and hookers, so my empathy has limitations.
