If an adult breaks voluntarily an item on me to cause pain, the instinct is to sue (a form of force), or respond with force (depends extremely on context) or flee. I don't think the situation you describe seems healthy.

I have at least 2 memories where I have been spanked really hard from my parents due to being misunderstood.
What's the consequence of that? Who is going to punish the parent? In children's view, that's a major punishment for no correct reason, what does it teaches about law?
I've flagged this. It is against the rules to explain why you did that but since there is already one 'HN staff downranked this post' comment, here is my reason: I'm getting a bit tired of anonymous low karma accounts posting 'just asking questions' kind of things on HN attacking YC, YC companies, or in this case a person closely associated with YC. Just the tone alone sets my hair on end: "fail upward". That's just nasty.

This isn't the first time this has happened. If you want to come out and make insinuations about a person you should at a minimum flesh out your profile and contribute more than just your 'let's discuss this person' posts and even then it is - in my view - bad form.

edit: absolutely hilarious to see this flagged.
I read somewhere that it was a way to get you into the habit of going directly to Amazon rather than searching for the product on Google and then clicking the first retailer. That's why you had to type smile.amazon.com directly into your browser. So in that way, it earned them a huge amount of customer loyalty.

Not easily, no, but I think a very fast reply frequency, especially between lots of pairs of two people, is more indicative of heat than light. :) (who knows, maybe the algorithm will think that about this reply) Genuinely interesting topics probably require more time to write worthwhile comments on, and draw in more people.

(To be clear, I'm not implying nor do I think that HN uses raw comment-count as a signal of overheating, just expressing my surprise at the previous poster's surprise at seeing high-ranked stories with few comments, since the correlation should run the other way if at all.)
You might wanna consult with your lawyer about public posting while you're suing them. Otherwise, good luck.
That poll would just differentiate from the people who were beat and those who were spanked.

> They have enough self-doubt to do the rest for you

Realizing this works wonders. Often it’s enough to politely point out one or two factual errors. “I’m not invested enough in the topic to argue on it, but I do know that X is factually incorrect.” It’s non-confrontational, so it doesn’t put people on the defense. Plus it gives them a thread to pick at to unravel the inconsistencies with their own reasoning.
If only! Audible is like Amazon Prime Videos - selection of free access books and then, depending on how much you pay per month, one or two "premium" books. Of course most of the books you really want to listen to are "premium." So essentially, you get to rent one book for ~$15/month or two for ~$23/month.

IOW - stupid.

> Can the children defend themselves, or are they legally required to passively accept the beatings?

Children are required to obey direction from school authorities within the legal scope of that authority, and in jurisdictions allowing corporal punishment may be beaten for failure to comply.

Additionally, should they resist public officials executing their lawful duties by force, this would generally be a crime (often a felony.)

So, yeah, they just have to take their beatings, or be eligible for even more beatings, or worse.
Slapping another adult on the bum without consent is assault or battery a lot of places. I'm in the UK where slapping your child is legal, but merely causing another adult to be in fear of imminent "unlawful physical contact" (an unwanted slap, for example) is assault even if it never actually happens.

The hypocrisy is astounding and one of the worst aspects - behavior we've outlawed against adults are being outright advocated for children in a position where they can't reasonably defend themselves.

You're seeking to justify violence and abuse, no matter how you trivialise it.

> But my first impression using this is that it's going to need a lot more work on the depth of the features rather than the breath.

> but when you add little features like that instead of bigger systems, you're going to find that you get lots of people wanting to add new little features to fit their use cases.

Oh definitely. My method until this point was to build a bunch of stuff to a) have what I personally need and b) see what other people need. In this year the focus will be on going deeper on things that work and are actively used. The task detail UX is something like that which needs some work and something I'm not satisfied with. But I can wholly agree with what you said about lots of people wanting to add new little features.

> Imagine having progress that is tied to the number of check boxes I've checked off, something that's not another manual thing that I have to click and keep track of.

The progress option is indeed not great and is likely going away in the future. There is a little circle indicator on a task with the number of total vs done items on a task checklist, similar to how github does it. Is that what you meant?

> Taking my trash out happens every Tuesday. If I were to want to abandon my current system to use this app I would no longer be able to do that.

You can actually do that. It's just not as straight forward as you might think (and that's a problem): you'll need to create a task with a due date of next Tuesday and a repeating schedule of every week / every 7 days.

There has been a bit of debate recently about the repeating option lately with a few good points made so it's highly likely there will be changes to this in the future.

Out of curiosity, what are you building?

Here's a fun one that's too long to print in this comment: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/chrisshroba/6c37c650668f4...

And the code used to generate it:

First some python to create a qr code from the link and output it as a json list of booleans:

import qrcode, json
code = qrcode.QRCode()
code.add_data('https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ')
code.make()
json.dumps(code.modules)

Copy and paste the out into the browser console and assign it to a variable called `qr`. Then run the following code to generate and display the string in the viewer:

(function(qr) {
let start = ' L L L L K L L L L K'
let draw = val => {$('.names').value = val; main() };
let decode = val => val.replaceAll('d','a ').replaceAll('r',' a ').replaceAll('u',' a ').replaceAll('l',' a');
let size = 4
let on = (s) => {
let ret = ''
let line = 'r'.repeat(s-1)+'l'.repeat(s-1)
for (let i=0; i<s-1; i++) ret += line + 'd';
ret += line
ret += 'u'.repeat(s-1)
return ret
}
let right_cell = (s) => 'r'.repeat(s)
let left_cell = (s) => 'l'.repeat(s)
let down_cell = (s) => 'd'.repeat(s)

// draw(decode(on(3)+next_cell(3)+on(3)+next_cell(3)+next_cell(3)+on(3)+next_cell(3)))
let str = start
for (line of qr) {
for (val of line) {
str += val ? (on(size) + right_cell(size)) : right_cell(size)
}
console.debug(`A ${left_cell(size).repeat(line.length)}, ${size}, ${line.length} line ${line}`)
str += left_cell(size).repeat(line.length)
str += down_cell(size)
}
console.log(str);
draw(decode(str))
})(qr)
I’ve talked to Sam once a long time ago which gives me a rudimentary answer to your curiosity. PG’s notes on Sam in that 2009 essay ring true to me (http://www.paulgraham.com/5founders.html).

> there are a few people with such force of will that they're going to get whatever they want.

We discussed nuclear power which was an industry I left but dreamed of building a successful startup in. Sam asked me why I wasn’t building a startup in nuclear power if I thought the technology was so powerful. What I realized in what he was conveying was that if he had the same conviction he would have no doubt about the ability to drive it to success. The more experienced I get the more I value that type of conviction and determination. The more I also see that behavior being rewarded with results.
But explicitly not on the topic of YC and YC related companies.

That said this kind of veiled personal attack is really not nice.
It also allows for runtime detection of bad actors attempting to flip memory.

I have absolutely been abusive at times growing up and probably in my professional life. I’ve been put in my place many times. And I learn and grow from that. I was not a perfect teenager and I’m definitely not a perfect adult.

What you're doing is trivialising abuse and violence by pretending physical discipline isn't.

Try applying it to an adult without consent and see the criminal charges you'd face.
I was expecting a fairly meh-level post - but this one has a lot of clear simple guidance - not even for data rooms - but as a base level of controls needed for (any?) business.

> Do people who he has advised at YCombinator all agree he's brilliant and insightful? What am I missing?

I have a lot of complaints about some people at YC (specifically those who say a lot of stuff about people in private—or even worse, on bookface—that they don't say in public, and engage in other childish cowardly behavior), and for all I know SamA has said sh*t about me behind my back (but I don't have any evidence he has ever done so nor do I suspect it), but in all of my interactions with him, he has been generous with his time and helped me figure out some key decisions (like when I was deciding whether to sell to Microsoft in 2014, he did office hours with me and helped me figure it out).

He's also put out a ton of honest, insightful, unique content out there that I've learned a lot from.

I think PG did him no favors by basically saying he was the Lebron James of startups when he was like 20 years old or something, but surprisingly he did live up to the hype.

Definitely someone who is able to see the forest from the trees and identify where the key roots are and act accordingly.
So would you also want the Content-Type header to die?
But we won't get there, not even close, maybe not even in a panopticon dystopia. Anyway, your baseline should be total accusations (not prosecutions, you're already a fair bit into the pipeline at that point and imposing significant costs), which is significantly higher than total people.
I worked with an older african american many years ago who in his own words grew up in the ghetto. He told me once that, "If we don't beat our kids at home the cops will do it in the street." Not advocating either way, but the perspective stuck with me.
Yes. Physical, emotional, or sexual mistreatment. Why would anyone need to engage in that kind of “negative reinforcement”?
I think you have to rate that Paul Graham post as a bit of a miss.

Sam's startup didn't fail miserably, it sold for $40 million, on $30 million raised. You can do worse, but by VC standards, it's not a real success story, let alone what you'd expect from a guy you describe him as one of your top 5 founders.

This doesn't imply an overall assessment of Altman (most startups fail, and so on...). My outsider opinion is Altman's public persona seems ok, it seems like YC did well under his stewardship, etc. But it sure looks like he was annointed. Paul Graham and folks like to talk about how in school, you just try to make the teacher happy. Well, sometimes making Paul Graham happy is really important too.
Octave is nice, but I never found it very compelling as an open source but lesser version of MATLAB. In part, this is because I have been privileged to have someone else cover the costs for me.

Numpy and Julia are alternative open source projects that cover some of the same use cases, but also add some additonal value. Numpy works with the Python ecosystem and its API has been emulated for distinct applications. Julia shares some of MATLAB and Octave's syntax, adds an advanced algebraic type system, and has expanding native code generating capabilities.
It seems to me OP doesn’t mean incompetent but more like unqualified for that type of position. The best answer to that is to back it up by data that he’s qualified if it is so

So both will happily stay at CPU melting point.

See the above. I think it is not dismissal that is shallow.

I don't doubt that sama is talented. What's unexpected to me is that there have been many much more successful YC alums than sama yet PG essentially chose him as his successor. It's not unheard of but you'd expect merit amongst startup founders to be rooted in their ability to build large companies and not on other qualifications or abilities in the abstract.
> What you're doing is trivialising abuse and violence by pretending physical discipline isn't.

Again, what you're doing is conflating abuse and violence with discipline.

Try to do anything to another adult with consent and you'll have criminal charges.

You can't ground another adult, or take away their stuff. You can with your child.
Did God deliver you this information?
If it served a legitimate purpose you'd expect actual research showing it, not having to rely on the accounts of a subset of victims.
Indeed.

Packaging pure Python often boils down to where to place the packages, the hierarchy between them and where to find the starting point for an application (if it is one and not a library).

Insert native extensions into the mix and you get all kinds of issues.

Like, which library to link to? Which version? Which foreign function library to use? Will my Python version be compatible with that library? Et cetera.

Funny you should say that. OpenAI was launched with a billion dollars in funding. This didn't exactly start out as a bedroom operation.

Agreed. The way I'd like to see it done is to give people convicted of non-violent or relatively minor crimes an option between being caned and being jailed.

I don't think much rehabilitation goes on in county jails anyway. People are usually only there for a few weeks anyway; long enough to lose their job but probably not long enough to be rehabilitated (if such psychological services were even offered in the first place.)
Do you feel like it's enough to have the system allow for annotation (and maybe visualisation) of the blocking relation? Or would you also want to have a way to let it enforce that relation so that the blocked task cannot be completed until its parent is done?

It's extremely unlikely that any HN staff "downranked" this post, but I certainly flagged it, and I assume lots of other people did, too. I'm no fan of Altman's, but stories like this are just toxic drama.

Probably because to have a real impact in this problem, you need to start in elementary school. Otherwise, you are just fighting for a limited amount of talent rather than growing how much of that talent is available.
