I find it weird on this thread and the other AirTags how everyone has such varying experiences with the hardware. My AirTags don't work often, everyone else's are fine. My walkie talkie works, no-one else does ...

On point 2 it’s been my observation that people who believe in conspiracy theories are often quite arrogant. i.e. they believe they have secret knowledge that the rest of us don’t have. MLMs exploit this arrogance.
>that they can truly consent.

This is bullshit. They are not consenting. They are succumbing to coercion due to power dynamics at best or are straight up being overridden by what you want.

Parenting is not negotiating with an adult, especially if they are preteen/early teenage years. They are humans with terrible executive functions that would be wards of the state without you.

You can certainly explain why you’re making a decision, but it’s really just your decision.

Their CEOs being less socially awkward than the Meta CEO probably has a lot to do with that, sadly.

In fact it works with the provided example but, empirically, it does not on area detail of detailed maps. Crests and valleys will switch.

That is a consequence of consolidated established style, not a cause.

It will work on the view of the full shape but it will not on the area detail, where the viewer will lose the notion of global position and attempt to interpret it like any other spot.
I believe the traditional solution to #3 was to get married before having kids. Life is a lot less stressful if you're

1. not alone

and

2. financially secure

and when it's a family of 2 adults plus kids, that means either one losing their job will not impact the family as strongly as if it was a single mom.
Spotify launches ‘DJ,’ a new feature personalized music/AI-powered commentary
Its just another "life-your-dream" scheme. Thats what old artists and old bohemians resort to in the bitter end. You scam the youth of tomorrow to have something to life from.. the dream is interchangeable, music, modeling, game-design, movies, fame or business acumen.

It also always turns into something sour, probably repressed guilt, trying to scare the youngsters off.

Not to mention Nintendo and Valve/Steam in the mix. Of all the issues that the video game industry has at the moment, a lack of platform competition isn't the issue.
The study linked in the article says that 99% of MLM participants end up losing money. Unless you have some data to back up similar stats for startup employees, you're creating a false equivalence (and a startup failing isn't the same thing as the employees ending up with a net loss, mind you).

> What gives you the right to decide what your neighbors do with their land?

Seems like there's a spectrum (even if the dividing line is in the wrong place on that spectrum right now).

Many suburbs prohibit owning roosters (they wake your neighbors at dawn) though female chickens are OK. I think it's OK if you can't open a slaughterhouse next door in an urban or other dense area. It's also reasonable to require that new construction be up to code, as your close-by building not to fire code could threaten my home.

At the other extreme are restrictions on how you paint your house or operating a slaughterhouse in a low density agricultural area is none of your (distant) neighbors' business, assuming the roads are up to the new traffic.

Increasing infill density doesn't seem bad to me, but even then, you need adequate utility and road capacity, and it's easy for NIMBYs in town to prevent that from being upgraded.
I guess that may have led to harassing friends and family about buying / switching insurance. With agile, that's probably less likely. "Hey mom, I know you like baking, but I really think you could be much happier if you didn't just follow the recipe from A to Z but instead reacted to challenges in a more agile way."
If somethings like this is banned by law, I'm sure most people won't do it, black box or otherwise.
There's a chance it already has, and we're just ghosts walking around unaware of our own demise.

> refuse to accept reasonable changes from people using their stuff in the field who just need it to work slightly differently from the upstream version.

On the other hand reasonableness is in the eye of the beholder.

As both user and victim of monkeypatches, i’d rather nobody had to but there’s not always an agreement to be found (or feasible at all).

On that point I like Cargo’s support for local versions / forks of dependencies, it provides a cleaner and less fraught support for patching your upstream (whether you ultimately fork or not).

We are still quite far from having truly "pleasant to read" long-form text in our computers or browsers. Real typesetting programs use optimized line setting and micro-adjustments in typography to make long stretches of text a bit easier on the eyes, but there's no support for this either in browsers or in most word processors intended for basic office use.
Sometimes you need to examine subtext a little closer.

Obviously this person is (reasonably) upset* that off-label use is muscling out on-label use, when the two uses are of two very different classes.

Their issue isn't just the fact that the common vocabulary has switched to focusing on weight loss, it's the general shift in where the supply is going that's accompanies said shift in vocabulary

Being overweight is a serious health issue, but Type 2 diabetics were using it in a way that was much more acutely pressing, with much fewer alternatives. It's not hard to understand why diabetics would feel upset/threatened by a secondary off-label use of such a different class.

* I read it as upset as the situation, not at those who are overweight to be clear
I think the tipping point is closer than you may realise. There has been material progress in form factors in the last year or so and we are not nearly done with the improvements that are on the radar.

Once we hit a certain point with the form factor, quite a wide range of use cases will become a no-brainer (for example, sitting on the bus with it).
That's a different situation that the grandparent mentioned. If I'm running a business in the US and I decide that our goose is cooked and it's eventually going to fail, I can just decide to wind it down and close it (if I have control of the company).

You're saying that Germany can actually tell the company "no, you're not shutting down"? That's just odd.
> Minecraft and Roblox both have creative / extensible outlets built in to them

Not at all the same thing as the community-created content of old.

Roblox is an entirely microtransaction-driven experience, you create games and publish them on the developer's platform so you can charge players for things and make money, not because you simply want to create something for people to enjoy. The developer is in full control at all times and can decide to remove your content at any time.

Minecraft is fundamentally a sandbox game but that's also not really the same thing. You can still run your own servers with your own mods on the original edition but that's just a remnant of the past and Microsoft wants to get rid of that as soon as possible so they can force you to play their version of the game where you pay microtransactions for servers, skins, maps, etc. And besides, most popular java servers have their own set of microtransactions, and there's no server list, so generally you either host your own server for a group of friends only or join a large existing server.

Compare all of this to the classic Valve game concept of loading up a level or script editor because you have an idea and want to make it a reality so other people can enjoy it, not because you think "I can make money out of this". You release your content on the internet for free, others download it, load it up on their servers, and it's now playable by anyone in a few clicks. Players open up a server browser, scroll through a list of servers, pick one they like and join, and suddenly they're playing a player-created map, on a player-hosted server, with player-created plugins providing gameplay and general quality-of-life features, together with other like-minded players. The developers had basically no control over this entire process beyond hosting the server list. No (alive) game released in the past decade replicates this experience because it's simply not as profitable as having full control of the game.
That’s probably lost the time they go to school where social pressure is stronger than any form of parenting — that’s why DARE and banning social media doesn’t work, what a good parent is supposed to do is give them enough information with which their kids can handle the situation. They will try out weed and will have a secret tiktok whether you like it or not, and I much rather they tell me about these so that I can help when they feel lost.
In this instance isn't Google guilty of fraud? They put on their website something that defrauds, it being called "search" makes no difference IMHO.
Isn't there in the US a small claims court for the restaurant to seek takedown and compensation for damages?
My more pessimistic take is that this style of business planning is actually planned, in that companies knew what they were doing was risky but knew they could just layoff people, as they have readily done. It is a plain as day showcase of companies treating employees as their greatest costs and liabilities rather than assets.
What I meant by nothing backing it is that it cannot be redeemed for any other thing of value, in the same way that at one point we used gold certificates as currency, which were "backed by" gold. At that time you could literally exchange the gold certificate for gold coins at a bank. A share of stock is backed by the value of the company since the stock grants you partial ownership of the company. Bitcoin may have a lot of computers that are burning electricity attempting to mine bitcoin and powering the bitcoin network, but as a bitcoin holder I don't have any ownership of those computers. They just continue to consume resources that we somehow have to pay for by pouring more money into the bitcoin system.

Sure, there are some people that think it is a significant innovation. There are also many people who recognize that it is not solving any real world problem, and that up to this point it has just operated as a giant speculative bubble.

I can put down enough calories in a meal to make a garbage truck blush. It's not necessarily that skinny people (or somewhat squishy people who carry it discreetly in my case) don't eat all of their food. It can also be that when you see me down a trashcan lid of nachos, it's my treat for the week (or two) and I accommodate for that in my normal habits.
My impression is the opposite - it is easy to encounter unsupervised children in a poor neighborhoods but practically impossible in upper-middle class ones.

Helicopter parenting is common in families where one of parent stays at home with one or two kids and directs all energy into supervising and 'developing' them. Having high income such families have disproportionate political power and able to enforce this model of rising kids on society at large.
Not bad for a supposedly backwards repressed regime, unless thats the least stolen compared to 1st world countries?

It also exposes a wider problem the crypto community are not addressing.
> Many of these systems keep redoing the same work over and over which seems wasteful.

There certainly is duplication of effort, but all these systems try to bring something new to the table.

> Why doesn't this exist already?

Because you haven't written it yet? (;

But seriously, I've had a somewhat similar thought. But instead of running a "reverse mail proxy" on a VPS, I was hoping to take a VPS, set up some tunnel magic (with wireguard probably) that forwards all traffic coming in from the internet, intact with original IPs, to my local side of the tunnel, and vice versa. So my local machine just has the same public internet IPs configured as the VPS and all internet traffic is going through the tunnel. So just use a VPS for its IPs. That way my data is not stored at my hosting party. If anyone has set this up already, or thinks this is a bad/good idea, I'd like to hear.

> Their CEOs being less socially awkward

Could you clarify for someone out of the loop; I always thought Zuck was portrayed as socially awkward.
For Joe average, the expected value of working at a random startup is positive - compared to not working.
It's just the employee's gamble to figure out whether the expected value is high enough and the risk ratio is aligned with their preference.

The expected return for an average MLM joiner is deep in the reds.

From an individual perspective that's a huge difference.

Raspberry Pi started out with pretty much the same product description, 40 years later.

This feels like concern baiting.

The comment you replied to wasn't "Startups are MLMs" and in fact goes out of its way to state that it's not implying they're identical, yet you still force your way into interpreting it in the least useful way possible.

The fact is, of course startups are not MLMs: but there are shared threads in how they lead to fallacious thought that puts someone else's goals and profit ahead of your own time, money, and general sanity based on not much more than a vague promise of a future payout.
What about creating something of value?
You absolutely got the name and the “business” model right.

If I never again see a “super cute!”, eye-searingly gaudy pair of leggings or other clothing being flogged online by one of my sweet but socially-susceptible high school classmates, it will be too soon.
After a bit of hesitation, I find myself agreeing. At least in so far, that for posts with lots of votes it should probably be the ratio, not the difference, that governs visibility. Unfortunately, for low vote counts the opposite/current approach is more meaningful. I assume this is one of the reasons why this hasn't changed, it adds a ton of non-obvious decisions to make.
I'm pretty sure the scammers are engaging in trademark infringement.

It that was all we cared about, e.g. we’d allow rape.

No. That's not how it works. Rape isn't actually the best way to pass on your genes. Society has determined that marriage is. Hence, rape is universally rejected by all cultures.
> Globalism is really a remarkable belief system. How can the U.K. leaving a trade union generate such strong feelings across the Atlantic?

You could turn that question on its head: Why did so many people inside the UK have strong feelings about an objectively beneficial trade union?

The answer is of course that this is not what the EU is.

There have always been the two poles about what the goal of the EU should be: The one extreme being a simple trade union between otherwise independent nations, the other being a full-fledged federal state like the US, with a single federal government and legislative body.

The reality is that it's neither of the two but some sort of hodgepodge compromise somewhere in the middle.

Ironically, the UK have been some of the strongest proponents of the "trade union" side in the past. But apparently for the brexiteers even that compromise was too much.

There are a lot of details, but here are some things you should probably understand:

- Post-termination exercise window. This is arguably the most important term that many people don't think about. https://zachholman.com/posts/fuck-your-90-day-exercise-windo...

- The costs of exercising options. Between the strike price and the taxes, it can be a lot. I've heard of but never used companies like SecFi that help with this.

- Whether you have the ability to sell on a secondary market. This might not be an option without approval from the board of directors.

- Whether you can early exercise. This can save a very large amount of money (but it comes with risk).

- Liquidation preferences. If the company raises $1M and sells for $1M, probably all of that money is going to the investors before any goes to you.

- Startups overwhelmingly fail. Every startup thinks they are the exception, but the failure rates say otherwise. I tell people to make sure they can live with that possible/likely outcome before joining a startup.

I haven't heard of anyone getting equity with dilution protection (but I'm not an expert).
> if I have control of the company

And there's the rub. If it's not clear who has control and two competing groups think they have control, the court will mediate, at least until things are sorted out (and might force e.g. a Texas Shootout).

In Germany, subject to certain conditions (the company being large enough, having enough employees with long enough tenure, etc.), you can't have 100% control of the company even if you've bought 100% of the shares. The employees are a recognised stakeholder and you have to reach consensus with them to make changes, the same as any other situation where you share control of a company with some other party.
Seems like a win-win situation to me: open source projects get the funding they need, and the sponsors get their SEO traffic. Gift horses mouth and all.
I am not sure. When an MLM is new and hot, it grows rapidly and there’s a lot of success for a lot of people. But there’s always a lot of churn at the bottom level, and if the organization isn’t growing, it’s dying.

I saw all this mostly from a detached view looking at tables in a SQL database, with the occasional glimpse of in person convention Bacchanalia. Many of my friendships and much of my professional network were forged in my 20s in this industry so this colors a lot of my views.

(Rather the opposite: I have a long-standing fascination with the idea of genuinely unthinkable thoughts, thoughts which cannot be had no matter what).

So, while I would for example say that my capacity for complex language is biological in origin, I think it is more useful to describe my knowledge of Esperanto as not biological in origin.
it's also wasteful in a different way: a lot of effort put towards building on top of a remarkably bad pseudonymous protocol based on anachronistic trust assumptions

from that point of view the refactoring to do is separating identification from transport and storage/lookup - for these things there are very good solutions but there is no cohesive protocol that is solid and widely adopted, and it's unclear if that will happen anytime soon, or ever - rather than just doing away with the mail metaphor in favour of the pager+answerphone metaphor which can be seen as a total overlap as you add features

but you're right that since email is here now and it "works" now, especially from a social perspective, then it makes sense to free up people from silos - what effectively webmail and proprietary messaging/social media are - and perhaps the best way is the toolkit approach you describe which would go about email a bit like git did with version control: establish protocols for the separate aspects of the system and then provide the user with a supervisor command tool, which can be automated to some particular use cases if need be but is flexible enough that it doesn't require one particular setup
Thanks I didn’t realize it had a name.
The biggest thing that I'm seeing that Singh has over Huffman is the adjustable detail-preserving terrain smoothing. Detail-preserving blur algorithms don't generalize well. Application-specific NN solutions tend to excel at this problem, by having a model of what details are important vs incidental.

I would like to see a combination of the two, with the terrain pre-processed before being used in Blender.
It's unenforceable regardless.
