The Dangers of Autocomplete
"Here's the pool of socially well connected people talking to each other, and here's the pool of lonely people that basically talk to nobody. Now, we could create new network edges between the lonely and non-lonely people, so that both groups of people can expand their social network and share their rich sets of deeply personal experiences with each other.

But clearly, a much better solution is to direct all that lonely energy to synthetic personalities running on data center VMs. So the people who are happy can continue to be happy, and the people who are lonely can shout into availability zones on the West Coast and Northern Europe. This is clearly the humanist solution."

--mount=type=cache is awesome!

One of the reasons we created Depot is that cache mounts aren't supported in GitHub Actions, since each CI run is entirely ephemeral, so the files saved in a cache mount aren't saved across runs. BuildKit doesn't export those cache types via cache-to. There are some manual workarounds creating tarballs of the BuildKit context directory, but we wanted something that just works without needing to save/load tarballs, which can be quite slow.

>this is not a problem with just One Medical - it is a huge problem in primary care everywhere.

>New doctors generally don't want to go into primary care anymore

An amazingly high portion of Canadians don't have a family doctor <https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/despite-more-doctors-many-cana...>. In Atlantic Canada (the four easternmost provinces) it is impossible, repeat impossible, to get a family doctor if you don't have one <https://web.archive.org/web/20190226051406/https://www.thete...>. It's one thing to have shortages in rural areas—that happens in the US too—but Halifax?!? I've heard the same occurs in Vancouver too.
I can't find it now, but I read somewhere that CalMaine had managed to mostly escape getting avian flu in its own birds. So it would make sense that their profits would dramatically increase if the price of eggs goes way up b/c of bird flu, but they can still sell the same number of eggs b/c their birds are not sick/dead. That explanation wouldn't require collusion, just normal supply and demand in a competitive market. (Cold comfort if you're poor and can't afford eggs anymore, though.) You could argue it's price-gouging, but, well, they're a public for-profit company. They're pretty much required by their shareholders to price-gouge when they can do so legally.

And of course it could be some of this (legal), but also some amount of collusion to fix prices (likely illegal).
Clinical trials are needed for medical interventions. But can't they A/B test e.g. communications or in-app experiences that try to get you to come in for insurance-covered stuff? This doesn't need to be evil -- maybe they search for messaging which gets more people in the door for vaccine boosters or regular physicals. Maybe after scheduling a kid's checkup, the app nags you to schedule your own, etc.
Amazon's likely buying One Medical for the same reason as most of it's acquisitions: to have an in-house team to dogfood AWS solutions. They'll care about customer experience enough to maintain a reasonable customer base, but improving the state of primary care won't be the priority.
Supposedly the government has to pay to exercise Imminent Domain. But water is ever increasingly scarce and grows more and more expensive. And we promised these people mountains of water forever.

There's no way to buy these people out. The price is infinity. The proverbial All The Gold In Fort Knox is still less valuable than top rights to the rivers & aquifers forever.

So what do we do? Should we go broke paying ever more for Imminent Domain money to re-civilize water we said belonged to the very few, the very old interests? Imminemt Domain doesnt seem sufficient here. Do we do nothing, and just let there be not enough water, let the right dry up along with the water supply itself, and let the shared pain also impact the rest of civilization?

This is such a pitiful situation. It drives me nuts that we are so afraid to have a government that can redress it's own criminally poor life-threatening choices. Someone needs to sue the government for granting these impossible water rights in the first place- force these rights to be overturned- with a charge of negligent homicide against the state. Right now there's seeming agreement there's no escape from these rights, but the rest of the world also has some rights, and those rights needed a stake at the table many decades ago when these absurd water rights were being created. Or we need real redress now, cancelling the impossible promise of exploitation forever.
Sounds cool, keep up the great work
The lack of empathy in peoples comments here is really disappointing and disturbing. It is a fact of our society that a huge number of people are alienated and totally alone. People need connection an intimacy to be whole and healthy, and that isn't available to everyone. For someone that was totally deprived of that, getting some semblance of it, even if from an AI, and then having it taken away would be very hard.

> Asynchronous code (e.g. callbacks) is more efficient (letting you do other work while waiting for things) but is also more complicated (manually saving and restoring state).

This is a persistent misunderstanding about async... it is not generally more efficient than non-async code. In fact, the overhead of async may slow things down. (There can be other downsides as well. E.g. debugging may be more difficult.)

For it to help, you need to have something better for the current thread to be doing than waiting for whatever it is you're waiting for.

Whatever that is, another worker thread could be doing it, so what we're really talking about is that async may let you reduce the number of threads you're using.

(Async is so useful in JS because it lets you reduce the number of threads to one, which lets you sidestep all kinds of hairy issues.)

That might be good enough, depending on your situation, to overcome the downsides of async worthwhile. But it may very well not.

Anyway: don't use async because it's "more efficient".

One Medical acquired Iora and completely hollowed out what made Iora awesome... the "health coaches" exist in name only now and aren't distinguished from regular medical assistants anymore, no more room or time for community efforts anymore, etc.

I think it's just another example of metrics run amok. You do too much of that, and all the slush and slack gets drained out of the system, and the system starts to die since it never learned how to measure how that slush/slack is valuable. This seems to be such a general pattern these days, but I guess it's been a slow march ever since the 80's.

That's the research proposal I want a grant for. My work will be going to the circus all the time and asking the acrobats if any of them used to work for Adobe.
Couple thoughts:

1. I really like 360 reviews, where you get feedback (anonymously) from other members of the team and even outside of the team. It's some work to do, but it can be worth it.
2. My company does semi-annual reviews, because 6 months is about the time people can remember things. That works well, and also because the review is only six questions.
3. As a manager and an employee, creating goals is hard, especially ones that are useful. I think a person should have at most two goals, one technical, and one personal.
4. My company also created a rubric for being senior, which while not perfect, is better than nothing. It makes creating goals easier.
5. My company also does not tie pay directly to the reviews. Pay increases happen once a year in a specific month, and the reviews are used to inform that, but no discussion of pay comes out of it. It lets everyone relax more.
6. Part of the problem is promotion is too hard, and a manager has to really justify that. Adding that rubric above helps a lot.
It was reported a decade ago.

But we are only "users", even if each if us converted 10 or more IE6 users and bothered IT departments to allow Firefox, web sites to write for web standards and not IE etc etc.

When they ask for money, we are "valued community members". When we have a question we are just annoying "users" it seems.

And the worst part: if you donate to Mozilla it doesn't go to Firefox. It goes to some other project.

Because Firefox is a profit center for Mozilla and they are milking it dry year after year and our donations comes on top of that.

Still I use Firefox. It is still better for my purposes (large hierarchies of related pages that lives from hours to weeks).

And it is not like using Google Chrome would improve the situation.

But lately (maybe the last twelve months?) I have started to use LibreWolf too. I use it as my research browser while using Firefox for all logged in work. It feels good, like using Firefox back in the days.

And if I can work against both Mozilla and Google simultaneously, maybe I should cut Firefox completely :-]

I completed that exercise along with a Nomad one w ELK stack. And submitted it. And never got a response ever besides we will look at it ASAP. (3 months ago.). It was billed as a "2 hour" exercise, but to even get close to that you would need to be completely fluent with Fly, Nomad, ELK, Wireguard, Linux networking stack. I thought it was a great take home but you would at least expect a response for completing it successfully.
Every single point in the article is generally wrong. The author clearly doesn't have experience with modern Kubernetes platforms like EKS, Fargate, AKS, GKE, Rancher, Openshift et cetera that solve many of the stated issues.

While in general it's true that startups should be wary of expensive cargo cult infrastructure designs,
a) if your application doesn't run on a managed PaaS, it should probably be running in a container,
b) if it's running in a container you probably need a container orchestration platform,
c) although you can get away with using simpler or fully-managed container orchestration technologies early on, it won't be long before Kubernetes starts to look appealing.

It would be one thing to say yeah, you don’t think the field is interesting and is likely to be a dead end.

But that’s not what you’re saying. Instead you are saying that you don’t follow it because well, you can’t follow everything. And I agree with that. But in that case, you could go to every single HN topic and post “I don’t follow <insert topic here>, I’m just posting to tell you that I can’t follow everything. So far it has served me well to not follow everything.”

Which doesn’t seem particularly useful or contributory in any way.

It might be good to note that these are probably the absolute worst eggs you can buy, so this represents the bottom of the barrel in terms of prices.

I suspect some of the data may be incorrect. Hard to believe that a Walmart in southern Oregon is selling those eggs for $5/dozen when you can easily get good eggs for that price elsewhere.

I'm happy to pay twice as much for eggs that I know are from healthy chickens humanely raised (pasture raised).
To look for an upside to the worst case scenario, the biggest win from a deep challenge to Section 230 protections would be a return to a smaller and more mindfully curated web.

Many of the problems from social media are rooted in the idea of having such enormous hoards of content that the only way to trawl through it is with automated algorithms. This was great when it worked, but the content pool seems to grow faster than algorithm design can accomodate and will only get worse as AI content generators mature.

It suggests that there are possibly as few as two futures:

1. The internet is a wasteland of content pollution and the automated tools for sorting and sifting through it are overwhelmed with toxic waste.

2. The internet returns to a network of trust where people are individually, but only marginally, accountable for what they share with others and this accountability engenders thoughtful curation at a manageable scale.

It might be that modern equivalents of web rings, curated directories, group chats, and member forums supplant "Internet Scale" search engines and social media networks. It would be an adjustment, but it wouldn't be the end of the world.
I'm loving it. I used cheap risc-v boards for several of my projects, most notably a GD32V in my keyboard. The equivalent stm boards weren't too expensive, mostly in the 10-20$ range, but weren't as easily available (and 10$ is still 3x the price of the chinese risc board)

Because studies of the replication crisis have actually borne this out.

Being first to publish such novel or unintuitive findings increases their profile/impact because they'll get cited more.
> Sublime Text was always faster than all of these (and still is) but that’s not why people are picking text editors.

Personally, I think VSCode has massive adoption because it's free and it's easiest to configure which both appeal to newcomers. The other camp that like VSCode are the nomads who like to work in the cloud. The senior devs I've met generally prefer either Jetbrains or Sublime, depending on if they like a maximal or minimal setup. And then there's the hardcore camp who can get on with Vim and Emacs. I don't know how the latter do it personally, I've tried multiple times to get something similar in functionality to Sublime/VSCode with them and it is always a monumentally frustrating fuck about.

> Tauri is great for certain use cases but it’s not even close to a replacement for Electron at this point (having used both).

I agree but it will definitely be ready within 5 years.

> Optimizing for speed above all else is the kind of thing that appeals to a subset of programmers, but most people just don’t care about at all as long as it’s fast enough. Products like VSCode are more than fast enough for all but a few people who like to count milliseconds.

I do agree with this to an extent but another reason I'm a big Sublime Text fan is the interface. I really appreciate the lack of screen clutter compared to VSCode and especially compared to Jetbrains.
