The thing is, the majority of users here aren't even VC technologists but simple coders and tech enthusiasts. Giving this sort of reading to your child seems like the nerd equivalent of parents that let their kids watch the Disney channel all day.

It's bad enough what media some adults consume but when it comes to children it's twice as concerning, because kids have a special ability to learn that is largely lost later in life. We're only young once, it's incomprehensible to me that someone would knowingly fill their child's brains with junk information.
I just received the same text at 20:47 last night, 20230124, but it was ".com", not ".co", so I guess it has been fixed.
This used to be done in South Korea by (ab)using ActiveX. This looks like a continuation of a bad practice.

Not that banks in other countries are much better with their reliance on mandatory (or nearly mandatory) smartphone apps.
GCP gives me an invoice every first of the month, automatically.

It also offers budget caps, but indeed, those are more a warning and not a hard shutdown. That's annoying. Same at microsoft by the way, except indeed that developer credit as a failsafe.

Google gives 100k free credits to universities and startups by the way (and even to individual departmens if you are a big university). You just have to apply and let them bring in trainers and you have to actually use a percentage, otherwise they take it away the next year.
I do know that Linux is not an RTS (Real-Time Operating System). Not sure if Fuchsia is (or can be easily modded as one).

For normal computers and phones/communication devices, this is no big deal, but it does limit usefulness in IoT.

> last I looked Chromecast was still a thing, so the OS distrib is still there and shipping on devices

Chromecast for TV now runs android, CastOS use cases are mostly moved to android or fuchsia now.

> There were no feature advantages to the Fuchsia transition

I agree, yet I'm glad they did this just for the interestingness of technology. (Theoretically, the Rust based OS may have better security/protection against memory/buffer issues, but thats surely overshadowed by the bug risk of a new OS)

> It would actually be very easy to kill it

My understanding from my time there is that CastOS isn't in a shipping-new-features state anymore.

> If Fuchsia was gone, Android would take over.

This is why the announced Pixel Tablet is also a hub device.
Your query might be memory bound, but might not be. You've got to attain very high speeds to be memory bound. In your case, you chose a query that likely matches quite frequently, no? If so, it's certainly not going to be memory bound because of the overhead of dealing with all those matches.

Try a literal that doesn't match or matches very rarely and you'll have a better shot at being limited by memory bandwidth. (But still maybe not.)
Maybe I've lost my heart but it's hard for me to find fault with the way Nadella communicated MSFT's layoffs. They're a business, they need to reallocate capital and headcount, he doesn't shed any crocodile tears, but they are providing above market severance benefits, end of transmission. If I have to be laid off I want it to go something like this.

1 second of super high intensity exercise 3x a week improves fitness as much as 59x aerobics
I use Firefox on macOS all day every day. It's definitely Gecko on an Apple platform. This monopoly you're talking about doesn't exist: it's two operating systems on two types of device.

I understand your frustration that you can't use the browser you want on the devices you want. That is annoying. However, *now* is the wrong time to go after Apple. Get more people using other browsers on other platforms first.

Wikipedia suggests this breakdown:

> As of November 2022, Android, an operating system using the Linux kernel, is the world's most-used operating system when judged by web use. It has 42% of the global market, followed by Windows with 30%, Apple iOS with 18%, macOS with 6%, then (desktop) Linux at 1.0% also using the Linux kernel.[1][2] These numbers do not include embedded devices or game consoles.

(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_operating_syste... )

Android and Windows make up 4x the number of iOS users on the web. When the % of Chrome users on those platforms goes down, and Firefox and others go up, to a level where any of them could temporarily steer the direction the HTML/W3C standards take, _that's_ the time to go after Apple. Until then, lean on the fence Apple are holding up for you (and getting Google to pay for).
> It's 8 minutes, not one minute

> 3x8 minutes of higher intensity exercise

Not exactly (unless I got something wrong): ”SIT involved 3x20-second 'all-out' cycle sprints (~500W) interspersed with 2 minutes of cycling at 50W”.
IBM was playing that game since the 90s - you can keep your job, but you have to relocate to a third world country, at your own expense, and be paid the local rate, in the local currency. It was designed to be a raw deal that nobody would accept - we didn’t lay people off, they resigned rather then take relocation offer.

Of course IBM stopped being relevant and fizzled out years ago, I can’t remember the last time I ran into anyone using their products or services, so I guess all their shady HR maneuvering was a loss in the end.

I suspect the story will be that a few companies will try to reduce the salaries of their remote workers, it will backfire when they jump ship to better offers, and in the end companies will just be happy they don’t have to pay for real estate, office perks, parking, travel, and all the other stuff.

The people who do go into the office will have to bring their own toilet paper - twitter style.
It's from Google, it won't. Which product from the last decade has won their respective market?

Everyone their own. I prefer to feel fine without a training regime and without assuming that everything I do is insufficient. I feel very good with that attitude and approach. However, I am not overweight, so its easy for me to feel that way.
Both onboarding and mentoring are tasks which do not need shared office presence to accomplish effectively, they just require a bit of work and an update to the generic process everyone has been using for decades. If your company's onboarding or mentoring process fails with remote employees then it is probably worth spending a bit of time working on the process instead of trying to cling to old habits.
> If the employees are not happy with a proposal, then they are happy to go find more generous shareholders.

If I didn't think you were serious, I'd laugh at your good joke.

I think workers should show up at the owners' homes with a different offer - "Perhaps we will let you live."

I think this requires some prior knowledge.

From https://palant.info/2023/01/02/south-koreas-online-security-... :

> I’ve heard about South Korea being very “special” every now and then. I cannot claim to fully understand the topic, but there is a whole Wikipedia article on it. Apparently, the root issue were the US export restrictions on strong cryptography in the 90ies. This prompted South Korea to develop their own cryptographic solutions.

> It seems that this started a fundamental distrust in security technologies coming out of the United States. So even when the export restrictions were lifted, South Korea continued adding their own security layers on top of SSL. All users had to install special applications just to use online banking.

> Originally, these applications used Microsoft’s proprietary ActiveX technology. This only worked in Internet Explorer and severely hindered adoption of other browsers in South Korea.

On one hand they do read the same articles, on the other, the set of investors and owners is much smaller, and generally older/more resistant to change than the people who run the companies companies, and these investors are likely the ones that put this pressure on everyone. Hence why it all sounds the exact same.
You’ll be holding a lot of your investments outside of stocks for a while, then.
But perception and relationships is what will ultimately drive sales, because customers are people too. What's difficult is finding the balance between product, marketing/sales, and tech. An easy example but I find Steve Jobs really personified this, the marketing vision was an integral part of the product. The failure is favouring one over the other, and yes naturally in big companies the relationship people will take over, but startups too tech centric without customer culture regularly fail too.
> HIT (High intensity training, what is discussed in the article) training achieves the same effects as much longer endurance training at much shorter times

Certainly not the same effect. HIT training doesn’t improve respiratory or cardiovascular fitness as effectively as continuous training does, and it doesn’t condition the muscles for endurance as effectively as continuous training does either.

I don’t know much about cycling, but I know a lot about endurance running, and the typical training regime will utilise continuous training (such as long runs, recovery runs…), as well as high intensity training and some training that’s a mixture of both, like fartleks. The reason being they all produce different results, and you want the benefit of all of them.

Here’s a video made by Eliud Kipchoge‘s athletics team that talks about the benefit of long runs:

https://youtu.be/CeN1FeJIygQ

They have other videos about the other training intensities they use as well. Their training facility is also at a rather high altitude, which is basically its own form of training as well, or a legal form of blood doping, depending on how you look at it.

Yep. Too often people fall into a binary way of thinking - it's either perfectly secure, or not secure at all. It's like that bell curve meme with the dunce at one end ("we should obscure our system"), the midwit at the peak ("security through obscurity is not security"), and the genius at the right ("we should obscure our system").

Obscurity *by itself* is a poor security measure, but it can decrease the surface area for automated attacks substantially. A determined human can figure them out eventually, but if their bot never sees you in the first place, the human might never even attempt the attack.

Obscurity is not a bulletproof shield, it's another layer of Swiss cheese.

You're conflating gender and sex.

But having a binary only option for this forces non binary children to comply to the gender dichotomy while having an option outside this norm allows them the freedom of choice.

Also, ask yourself why a binary-only option doesn't strike you as "advocating sex change" when the users are capable of choosing different options.

I think there is something there about the micro-managing. A company is "buying" a certain amount of time from you, and wants to make sure it is squeezing the absolute maximum they can(and even more). Working from home means they cannot keep track of your every minute, and you may be ... gasp ... stealing time from them

You seem to be very upset about something, but it is not really clear what.

“Deniers” is usually used about people who deny evidence, but this does not seem to be the case here.

Therefore, they have done so.

Android and Windows make up four times the number of web users as iOS. That's almost the same ratio (Chrome:others) as browser use across the web. Get a significant proportion of those user to move onto to other browser platforms first, then go after Apple give the final 20% of users more choice.

No, restaurant workers will not mess with your food in that way. No matter what they think of you as a client. Ask people you know who have experience in that sector and they will tell you that such things are absolutely taboo. Anybody who did anything like that even once - or even suggests it - would be instantly fired and blacklisted in the community.

If the waiters or chefs hate your guts, at most they will swear in the kitchen.
I'm not sure if there was such a "fundamental distrust" ever. It is more easily and adaquately explained that they simply followed the path of the least resistance, which is a status quo.

> I understand why Apple hasn't done mass layoffs, but I'm still stuck on how you know that during the recruiting process.

You can't truly know. But you can vaguely see how many employees there are from news/earnings reports/etc. There's a lot of data in the moment, but you can never know how to process it until after-the-fact.

That said, it may not matter. Like you said, you can't blame anyone for taking a job, and they pay well, and part of that money is "boom/bust" cycles. Its part of the industry IMO.
Curious to hear about the specifics...
While the whole signature verification thing sounds water-tight in theory there are lots of holes still being patched so I don't buy it this will 'change everything'. Making everything tamper-proof could even prevent some holes from being closed.
It doesn't matter if it's a realistic metric for the amount of work done. It's demoralizing to her coworkers that actually work hard, and I would fire her based on that alone. But the fact that she was fired for reasons probably unrelated to her Tiktoks is just more evidence that probably wasn't adding a whole lot of value.
Is it necessary to fire them? That's the relevant question we should ask ourselves.

A hiring freeze and marking obsolete positions as obsolete (meaning if someone switches teams or quits that specific position will not be replaced) should be a workable model for all profitable companies with some cash reserves. Sure, it takes a bit longer and probably costs a bit more (though probably not tons and lay offs also have other traumatic effects concerning knowledge loss, morale and motivation that can negatively affect the business) but it's a workable model.

Embed that into overall more cautious hiring in good times (yeah, we can't time travel, so that's not an option - but to me that's the thing that should be learned from this) and you should never have to do any layoffs if your business is basically sound. I would be shocked, for example, if Apple were to do any lay offs. They seem to follow that approach (well, probably not in the retail context which I also think is unfortunate).

To me it seems like those lay offs are primarily a tool to communicate and that just sucks. It sucks that something that should clearly be seen as a management failure (if you need to do lay offs it seems to me obvious that management is to blame, not those laid off) can in this weird upside down world be used as a communication tool towards the wider world that they are doing something useful. Even if it wouldn't be needed.

Also, I just don't think people should be treated like that, especially if it's not needed. It seems so pointlessly cruel and inhuman. This is not the world I want to live in.

And I know that's hard to pull off in capitalism. Maybe that's the issue. Though it's not as if you cannot modify capitalism to at least not allow for stuff like this.
I've never heard around here that spying is good when a democracy does it.

The same goes for any other security "guarantee". Security isn't something you rely on, it's a constant fight, obscurity is a reasonable thing to have in your arsenal. If you're at some point claiming "this is secure" you're deluding yourself, the only reasonable claim is "we have a lot of barriers to being compromised" or perhaps "we are secure against this vector", if obscurity is one of those barriers that's real and it provides a tangible benefit. Penetration is stochastic, the measures you take to prevent it change the odds.
They're all terrible. You're a human being with dignity and a name, not a farm animal. Any employer who tries to name you as the latter should be politely asked to stop.
The fact they're drip-feeding how bad this breach actually was is terrible enough and yet their entire product is built on nothing but trust.
