Stating you don't plan to increase prices means you are planning to increase prices, but you want to surprise people with it so they don't have time to find an alternative before their next renewal. You also get to control the PR narrative so the news of the price increase is separate from the news of the acquisition, and can lie to the government review board and say that the acquisition won't hurt customers.
> But really, the question I guess I'm asking is why do you place humans on the center to begin with?

You don't? Please tell me that you are not advocating reallocating half of all hospital funds to animal shelters in order to equalize the balance between us and domesticated animals.

> It seems you're really hammering on the concept of domestication, but why?

Because it explains the value system. We domesticated animals to eat them. Pigs ate the food scraps we couldn't and we ate them. I'm not sure what is unclear to you about this setup.

> Why is for example a domesticated pig less worthy of living than a domesticated dog, or a domesticated plant or a human?

Everything has life worthy of living. My question to you is why you don't cry over the single celled organism holocaust every time you wash your hands? Are their lives not worthy? We compartmentalize and prioritize -- you do it just as much as I do, you just feel like judging me for being honest about what mine are.
Product differentiation for various markets and price discrimination are both common techniques that even a monopoly can use to extract more profit.

They know that not everyone would be able to afford the top tier of service. If Toyota were the only car company, they wouldn't only offer top end Lexus models. They would probably retain the various tiers, and simply try to capture the maximum consumer surplus at each tier.

There's no particular reason why a monopolist would want to remove a cheaper priced but lower functionality service, so long as it is profitable.

By integrating the businesses they might actually be able to find efficiencies and cost savings that make it even more profitable via economies of scale.

Whether those efficiencies end up as consumer savings is a question of how competitive the market is, but I don't see how this would necessarily harm the customer experience.

Might be able to reduce redundant storefronts, headcount, software as a service platforms, etc. Might be able to save money on employee benefits by leveraging larger group policies. They could do all of this while keeping things about the same or better for customers.

The only reason to actually eliminate the lower end of the pricing model is if it is unprofitable. Others would fill the space if they just killed it.
I was thinking more about counterparty risk. If it gets bad enough, your insurer won't exist any more, right?

There are multiple reports of it happening to others as well. I'm not going to send you everyone. Obviously, this was an example of one such incident.

The fact is, when you have a government run health system and it's limited on funds you will start to encourage the government to move people towards assisted suicide. It doesn't take a genius to figure this out....

One of the women Canada touted as helping "peacefully die" supposedly ask for help with her condition multiple times and was refused any sort of medical help, and then given the suggestion she should just kill herself instead.

Question for the audience: if Hetzner's highest-specced bare-metal servers would work great for my use-case, except that my customers are mostly in America and my service is realtime-ish enough that I need a low-latency RTT to them, then what's the next best option? What's the "Hetzner of North America"? (I know Hetzner has US datacenters, but they don't do any dedicated hosting there AFAIK, only cloud hosting.)

Personally, so far, the best near-equivalent provider I've found that actually offers well-specced machines in North America, is OVH, with their HGR line and their Montreal DC. Are there any other contenders?

And if not, why not? what's so hard about getting into the high-spec dedicated hosting space in the US specifically? Import duties on parts, maybe? (I've found plenty of low-spec bare-metal providers in the US, and plenty of high-spec cloud VM hosting providers in the US, and plenty of high-spec bare-metal providers outside the US; but so far, no other high-spec bare-metal providers in the US.)
You can always just fire the ethicists once something they say will effect your bottom line. This is all just ai ethics white washing, for some reason we have to pretend for-profit corporations will be responsible shepard's of the ai revolution.

I'm not exactly sure why we have to pretend though, it's not like we could ever actually do anything about it even if a majority understood it's apocalyptic potential so it really doesn't matter either way. Just look at climate change inaction.

Related if you can afford it, NextDNS[1] on my mobile device has been a godsend for blocking ads. Literally amazing how much speed it saves when sites aren't loading a bunch of ads / tracking libraries. I use it on my router and mobile devices and it's made a huge difference.

Re: competition being removed, that really sucks. I'm a Google Fi customer which has similar pricing, only downside is that if I switch to an iPhone, the service pretty much becomes useless as you lose access to WiFi calling and hotspots, things that work seamlessly on my Pixel :/

Edit: Apparently Google Fi now supports WiFi calling and mobile hotspots on iPhone as of iOS 13 Hmmmmm, maybe I can switch with no problems now.

Just looked up how much of the company Reynolds actually owns. About 20% - 25%.

So he's getting roughly around a $300 million payday out of this. That's roughly double his current reported net worth. Not bad at all.

Earlier events already had us slowly switching out docker for pod man, and the tooling is more similar than I had expected. Half of the work is ensuring the images are explicitly prefixed with docker.io/

Quick Google appears to show they have 3 million subscribers, which makes the average cost per customer to be $450. Given its a virtual network, beyond brand value Ryan provides, who owns 25% of the company and will remain the brand’s spokesperson — what other assets are being transferred beyond a brand and portfolio of subscribers?

If long term, it’s basically a subscriber list, seems like value of a virtual US telecommunications subscriber is roughly $45 a year — assuming sell is a 10x multiple. How would someone estimate this value beyond this specific sell? Even more abstract, is there a source for estimating value of a customer for a given market?

> A bank should keep the money secure. Anything >0% loss is unacceptable.

You're wrong about this part at least. Borrowing short and lending long is what banks do (among other things). The alternative is either:

- banks asking for 10+ year time deposits to match your 10+ year mortgages , or

- banks only willing to do mortgages that are < 1 year

The risks can be managed somewhat, and SVB *definitely* were too greedy (and stupid), but you're mistaken if you think the other banks are qualitatively different than SVB in their exposures to interest rate risks...

That's why most bank's stocks are down. Most people don't think they will fail, but recent events do highlight that they have a bunch of long term securities that lost value.
I havent used docker but my understanding is that dockerhub hosts docker images which are essentially just text files?
Would that be something that cud just be migrated to another platform easily or does dockerhub do a lot of other things too?

One other thing I should mention that's relevent, we do also have a class abstraction instead of a decorator: https://github.com/launchflow/buildflow/blob/main/buildflow/...

This can help with things like setting up RPC clients. But it all boils down to the same runner whether you're using the class or decorator.

Rejection Proof: How I Beat Fear and Became Invincible Through 100 Days of Rejection by Jia Jiang

Highly enjoyable read! This book really captures the entrepreneurial experience of interviewing for insights while focusing on the fear of rejection, which is a major problem that isn't typically found in most other books on entrepreneurship.
That episode really drilled home how old the web is. Even in the early days of building it, I was thinking “there’s going to be a generation that never knew a time before the web,” and I was ready to deal with children from that mindset, but at year 25 we’ve got adults actually working now. Just amazing.

Great article.
This is Ryan Reynolds' second company he has sold which he has a "significant stake" in after he sold his Aviator Gin to the big whale, Diageo brands. He's been able to leverage his status and marketing talent to grow those brands significantly. Other actors, athletes also do this, but perhaps he is the most noticeable. George Clooney also sold an alcohol brand to Diageo.

If you're looking for an alternative T-Mobile MVNO Tello.com might be worth a look. I used to use it and it was _cheap_. I ended up moving to another MVNO on Verizon because T-Mobile coverage isn't great around my house but I was happy with the price and service.
I pretty much just tell them to assume that anyone contacting them by whatever means asking them to do anything is a scammer.

In my experience, trying to list and explain all of the ways that scams happen actually has the complete opposite effect — either it ends up as information overload and they don't remember it, or they become so fearful of doing wrong in specific situations that they almost certainly become more vulnerable to fear-based attacks as a result.
First, I was pointing out the shortsightedness of the comment to which I had replied. However, your question is answered in the article.

The author's age is related to how long Kokkte has existed as a blog, which is longer than those who are 30 today have been browsing the web. From the actual article, "I’ve been writing kottke.org for 25 years". This means that people who are over 30 today were the initial boosters for kottke. Kokkte is a person's blogsite, not something targeted to people under 30.

As the article says, kokkte.org is older than google. The author didn't start blogging when he was 5.

There is also a pertinent point on wikipedia about Jason Kokkte. "In 2005 Kottke was able to quit his day job to focus on blogging full-time." [1] He wasn't supported by people who were at most 12 years old.

OVH also has US East Coast and West Coast datacenters, so you can get a little closer to your customers if you need the latency. Though in my experience, support isn't great for any of the OVH affiliated companies.
I’m really, really liking this.

I’ve been testing the whole stack on a local server, finding kinks, documenting workflows, because I hope I move us to this soon. Now with Pyroscope I would love to try it out even more. I kid you not, we were just testing Datadog Continuous Profiling for our legacy Ruby application not two days ago and it was quite lackluster.

Not saying this will be better (have yet to try), but I’d prefer to support and report feedback back on this for a brighter future for our community.

RedHat has not won any systemd war. From all the distributions out there using systemd, RedHat is the one that uses the least amount of systemd features.
They are even going so far as disabling features.

See
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1962257
* https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/systemd/-/blob/...

Sometimes they even backport systemd features from more recent versions, disable them but leave man pages in the original state.
Even the /usr split isn't progressing at all.

Meanwhile Fedora has implemented all these changes, which according to https://www.redhat.com/en/topics/linux/what-is-centos-stream, should be the upstream for CentOS.

I would say RedHat dropped the ball on systemd and has no intention of supporting any of the new features in any of their systems.
If they want someone to take care of them, then they need to give up some agency. Spending everything via credit card is the easiest and most effective way to solve this problem.
Yeah, I was referring to the comment you made, was just curious about them, and wanted to confirm to know if they were just making concurrent calls or actually doing some novel optimization under the hood.

I do not think they were sending concurrent chunks to Open AI because the API wasn't out when they launched. That being said, there is some reduction in their accuracy compared to the original whisper, which I imagine they sacrificed to achieve such performance gains.
"doesn't it make very hard to wrap your head around complex code bases after they grow beyond what you can keep in your head at the same time (as any other dynamically typed language)?" - I'd say Smalltalk's really nice simple development environment, with the debugger being super easy to use, saves your bacon here. I always found it very easy indeed to inspect code, find out what it's doing. And there was less code in the first place. I think you raise a valid concern, but other strengths of the language and its development environment make this less of an issue than it might be. Somewhat hard to explain - best to download Pharo, read Pharo By Example, and have a play :)

Very unlikely, TreasuryDirect is so horrible to use, only if you must like I-Bonds. You just go into your brokerage and buy them on the secondary or even through auctions. TD Ameritrade and Vanguard brokerage accounts make this extremely easy. You can also sell your bonds whenever you want instead of waiting til maturity this way.
It seems to me (being uneducated in the matter) that if a bank is holding US government debt (treasuries) as "hold to maturity" that the US Government should have some ability to offer a line of credit against those assets for cases like this one was.

Or that the bank should be able to say "depositor X transferred $100 million to Chase, so we sent Chase a wire for $10 million and treasuries marked HTM worth $90 million" or something.
My iPhone 8 is still going strong! It has a bright spot in the middle of the screen, the battery isn't what it used to be, and the camera is clearly not as good as the newer iPhones that my extended family all have. But it's not bad enough to justify spending hundreds of dollars to replace it quite yet.

Knock on wood!

Excellent write-up. I love these kinds of "I had this problem, these things on hand and an idea for how to solve it" followed by the story of every barrier and how it was overcome. It's becoming more and more rare with people preferring to go the YouTube route. I'm not knocking video-versions of these things, they have a lot of value (among them being "less friction to publish easily" for some folks[0]) but convenience of text is vastly superior for consumption as far as I'm concerned.

It takes a lot of time and energy to put these sorts of things together but they have value beyond the original topic (e.g. perhaps one of those barriers you encountered designing this is a barrier to other problems[1]).

I wonder why these ultra wealthy individuals want more power and money, surely half a billion in the bank is enough?
Then they tax every pound of income over (£50k to £150k) at 40%, truly perplexing.
Because:

1) taxation destroys money.

2) new money can be absorbed by economic growth. Imagine you have $100 in an economy and 100 apples. $100 is added, so there’s $200/100 apples. Inflation might occur. But if you make 100 more apples, so there’s $200/200 apples, the ratio of money to goods didn’t change, and you wouldn’t get inflation. That’s an extremely contrived example, but it gets the point across.

Considering both of those factors, I hope it’s understandable that printing money doesn’t necessarily cause inflation.

Cash doesn't try to rationalize all sorts of slow, obnoxious, and expensive behavior on the basis of fraud protection and then fail to protect from fraud.

My wife got suckered into one a few days ago (though hung up before anything bad happened). We ordered a replacement pair of glasses for my daughter, and the store said they would call when the glasses came in so we could pick them up.

Flash forward a few days, and she gets an automated called saying something akin to "Your delivery is on hold, please press 1", so she did, and got connected to an "agent" who she started talking with. In her conversation it became obvious to me it was a scammer, so I told her to hang up, but not before she got overly concerned at me.

She's pretty aware of these things, but it was just a right place at the right time kind of thing that caught her off guard even though there were plenty of warning signs.
That actually sounds really nice at that price point.

750 is a pretty damn big one bed(room?) apartment for sure, and with the perks, prime location and presumably high end building standards, the price seems very reasonable. Probably similar to what I'd have to fork out for a much more central apartment in Oslo, at a similar size and standard.

$300k a year will not buy you a 3bd house in the geographies that pay $300k a year. That's a middle (not upper) class life milestone. That others are paid even less is a travesty and a sign of a deeply broken society. Again, the problem is not with those making $XXXk a year, it's those making $XXXM+ a year, or not working at all but controlling $XB. The problem is also that capital has distorted the housing, health and education markets to the point that basically no worker can afford what used to be a middle class lifestyle.

But is this still really python? This compiler and others are not a drop in replacement. They typically cover a narrow subset and/or need additional code/hints etc.
