This 2019 discussion thread where HN was pushing back at a pre-YC head Garry Tan, especially this subthread, was a memorable example of devs complaining en masse about startup equity stinginess.

Ask HN: HN is painfully slow when I'm logged in. Is it the same for you?
So I noticed that HN loads painfully slow. At first I thought it's due to extensions, but then I noticed it only happens when I'm logged in to HN. That's weird. Is HN running analytics in the background? Why does it slow down the website for logged-in users?
London core requires a special solution -> bikes with folding handlebar stem, folding pedals, possibly a longtail if you need to transport two kids.

All of this stuff exists but the bike industry can't put 2 and 2 together.

Here is a link to a folding handlebar stem that is sometimes in stock: https://flatbike.com/product/thinstem/
That seems completely fair? I also cannot upload random company data to Dropbox or Google Sheets.
I can assure you that the minimal requirement to be in the in-group is being born there, but even that might not be enough if your parents aren't already well-integrated.

A bit like trying to blend into japan - you will ALWAYS be the gaijin no matter how perfect you speak the language of follow the traditions.
>>How many times have you hit someone while riding a bicycle? I never have.

I suppose I should stop paying for car insurance then, since I never had an accident either. Or maybe more accurate example is that I shouldn't worry about the safety of my car, since I never actually hit anyone with it.

>>How much harm do you suppose it would do, leading to "massive legal trouble"?

There was a cyclist in london recently who ran into a woman on his modified bicycle, she tripped, hit her head on the pavement and died - he was subsequently found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to prison for many years.

You could run into someone at 5mph, they could hit their head on something and die. There is another case exactly like this going on where a person hit their head on a bollard and left him permanently disabled for life.

The entire point is that if you are on a path specifically forbidden for cycles, and an accident happens while you are cycling, you will be found guilty and will have to face consequences, most likely much harsher than if you weren't doing something forbidden.
I agree that for AR/VR or motion based "experiences" and games, the controls always are the weakest point, and I think this is crucial to understand the slow adoption.

This is also more fundamental and difficult to solve than it seems.

Beating the seemingly low-tech but widely successful existing control systems is not a given.

Most alternatives are inferior.

> So copyright infringement. Really a poor argument against Apples policies.

>> A poor argument? To me, as a final user, it's the greatest one.

>> I agree, regulators shouldn't exist.

So you don't want regulators, even though regulators are the only possible way things like the copyright infringement tools you like might be made mainstream. Got it.
You realize this study's definition of risky play includes riding a bike and playing with sticks, right?
This is a common technique in transposition ciphers, which are one of the oldest ciphers used since at least ancient Greek times.
I hadn’t really thought about that. If it doesn’t work against people training the base models, and those are inevitably going to be trained on a wider and wider set of internet-available imagery, it seems like this is even more futile.

Same here! Although I also thought of ATDP (the bad old days of pulse dialing).

Anki is great. In the last 12 month, I've learned Ukrainian to the level where I can read & listen news with full comprehension, as well as truck driver theory test (to the level where examiner was blown away with my knowledge of theory on the day of the driving test) - all with much help from Anki.
Congratulating, you're sending your work products to a third party under extremely permissive agreements. You may be:

* Rendering invalid any attempts to assert intellectual property (trade secrets, patents).

* Destroying attorney-client privilege

* Violating consumer privacy laws

* In some other sectors, you may have even stronger no-data-sharing laws that get violated (e.g., HIPAA, FERPA).

I suspect your company's policy is based on legal concerns such as the above... do you really understand the legal risks of violating your company's policy? Are you really willing to take on all that legal risk personally (the company sure isn't going to protect your ass)?
I had a Visual Pinball cab in my living room for a few years and I would tweak the emulated machines to get close to gameplay on real games that I could play nearby. I could get it pretty close -- certainly enough to learn the ruleset and flow of a game. After a certain point every copy of a particular table plays differently and V-pins were sort of another variation of a table that you could find in the wild.

The big thing that was missing (at the time) was good nudge support. I did have an accelerometer in my cabinet but nudging never felt very realistic.
By violence, I don't just mean physical violence. Humanity's emotional violence is astounding. Also, a lot of those animals you mentioned do those things for survival. Humanity is discontented and will often reach for violence that is otherwise not necessary. Animals in the wild will often avoid conflict at all costs.
Looks like he decided it anyway.
(IMHO) Balance comes from forces in opposition.

If you're only trading time for money in your career, IMHO, you don't have a career, you only have a job.

At the least you should also be trading your time for expertise, networking, and accomplishment, although I would also recommend some degree of self-actualization and everyday enjoyment (if you're in a position to seek for those).
You might be super overqualified and your skillset be perceived as threatening to your bosses (imagine top schools/companies in the past and applying to some regular dev role). Or the hiring focuses on finding a unicorn 100% fitting current requirements without any room to learn what is needed.
I used WM actively in the late 90s as my primary. I still put it on any Pi or things like that that I need a quick desktop for. So clean.
> I assume Apple has some sort of vector acceleration framework in Apple Silicon, but it will take time and effort to reverse-engineer and implement.

I'm pretty sure it's just vanilla ARM NEON so I don't think it will take any reverse engineering. The Apple Silicon GPU is custom, but the CPU is just minor extensions to (and compatible with) AArch64. Rumour has it that this is because AArch64 was designed by Apple and donated to ARM (who Apple has close relationship with being that they were a founding member).
If I didn't need healthcare I wouldn't worry. COBRA will drain my emergency fund twice as fast as if I didn't need it. Moreover, I grew up poor. I will not go back. I've come too far to let some silver spoon patagonia wearing pricks take my livelihood from me.
Actually being in a car is statiscally more dangerous than doing your commute on a bike, because of health reasons. Accidents are not that important.

Could build a vue js SPA frontend that dynamically renders a table of things (fake pet food sales?) based on a call to AWS dynamodb.

Could use AWS Lambda to implement a server side auth layer.

Would get some decent AWS exposure (deploying vuejs with S3 and cloudfront, possible serverless lambda experience plus API Gateway), some nosql experience, would learn the request response lifecycle and how frontends actually work. Could do some terraform to deploy the AWS stuff.

Years ago my experience was that I knew AWS and devops stuff. I wanted to do something more substantial with golang, and I wanted to make a frontend for an API I had made (but had never done so before).

Starting with a simple idea (a dynamically rendered table) was simplistic enough that it was doable but still complicated enough that I needed to spend a couple hours for a few days after work to get it working. I had a great feeling once it was working and I really ended up learning quite a bit as a result.
I feel like that's generally because parents want their kids to be financially secure, and civil service jobs generally pay pretty poorly. That said, policing is often an exception - there are places where they're underpaid, but often their salaries are solid relative to cost of living.
The youngest generations are what keep the economy moving. They produce the goods and services, and are the primary buyers of products.

When the proportions of young to old get too skewed, each one ends up paying more and more to support the older generations - which means they can't buy as much either.

It's economically very bad to have an aging population.

Also: It seems in general most economies are centered around indefinite growth. That may sound absurd, but regardless a shrinking population reverses that assumption and causes problems.
My company has a group of younger product managers who are very obviously using ChatGPT to write proposals, e-mails, and other documents.

It's obvious because their writings in Confluence and late night e-mails suddenly became very verbose and used the sometimes obvious ChatGPT voice. There's a stark contrast between content they write/share on the spot or discuss in meetings.

Then you get them into a meeting to explain further and they some times can't even remember what they were thinking when they wrote various bullet points.

It's eye opening to see how much the ChatGPT produced content can fool managers at the top who catch glimpses of neatly composed and verbose documents. Then you get the people into meetings and they don't really know where they were going with their "own" documents.

It wouldn't be a problem if they could take the documents as some sort of next step for their learning or research, but it's really becoming useless to have all of this ChatGPT-created content out there where none of them can really execute on it without going back to ChatGPT over and over again to come up with more content.

No idea about Hynek, but when I say Lue Elizondo is a career disinformation agent, I'm not being facetious, but rather rephrasing the first sentence of his Wikipedia entry [0]:

> Luis Elizondo is a media personality and former U.S. Army Counterintelligence Special Agent and former employee of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence.

In a true "leak" scenario, I would expect the first leaks to come from someone in the Navy, not the counterintelligence office.

Also, I don't think it's a coincidence how closely his physical appearance matches that of the stereotypical Q-Anon believer.

There are basically two options: either ETs are visiting or not. Your take on the matter clearly implies only one of these?

If you admit, you cannot really know whether or not they are (much less give a reasonable estimate for likelihood), you have to look at both options equally.

Interestingly, given ET-visitation, just as posited by "UFOlogy" taking place since at least Roswell, fits remarkably well with observations mentioned here. At the very least, there doesn't seem to be any real contradiction?

The leaks you mentioned weren't instigated by "the government", by the way. Rather, some group of relative insiders did that.

He's telling you what he is. If you continue to engage, it's on you.
> who will be left behind

You need to think about where you're going before you just blindly follow "progress". You're assuming that you'll be better off than the ones left behind, I wouldn't always be so sure.
Your account was created 15 days ago and is used exclusively for posting inflammatory political nonsense. Also, you do realize that China is the most hyper-capitalist country in the world, don't you?
I started digging and noticed there are lots of little fiefdoms in plain sight in the US.

Its... amusing.

Either a little unincorporated hamlet to escape taxes, or a little incorporated hamlet to collect taxes from some warehouses.
From the project description: This is a docker baseimage that can be used to create containers able to run any X application on a headless server very easily. The application's GUI is accessed through a modern web browser (no installation or configuration needed on the client side) or via any VNC client.
Probably the usual way: lower salaries and claim there’s a shortage you’ve tried “everything” to fix.
This gets into the distinction between law and equity. It’s a pretty obscure topic for non-lawyers but the gist is that a court sitting in equity would almost never award damages.

While the Supreme Court is a court of law and equity, the power to imply a cause of action stems from its inheritance of equity powers and so is limited by them as well.

(This is all based on memory and so the details may be off.)
This is the case in Hong Kong when I visited my extended family who live there a decade ago.

Powered walkways/escalators/elevators everywhere, metro came every 2-3m, shopping/city offices/food courts connected to it all and you did a LOT of walking.

That was the closest to Trantor I'll ever be in my life. Sigh.
The guy made a grand claim on Twitter and because his credibility would be ruined, he was forced to play along and now he's losing a million dollars. What a clown hahaha

He's very wealthy but what makes him a clown is that he's a slave to his reputation (and therefore his followers). Can't act independently. Can't back down. His masters are his audience.
You're implying it's impossible to purchase goods and services with cryptocurrency. What's stopping someone from say purchasing gold bullion with cryptocurrency and in turn exchanging that for cash? There are also OTC exchanges. My point is there are many methods to exchange it for some other thing of value that doesn't directly involve exchanges and in turn the traditional banking system.
I don't think it's a 180. It's to the effect of 'a few bad apples ... spoils the reputation of the bunch and we should be conscious that not everyone is bad.'

Not that I agree with it, but that's the angle it comes from at least from what I gather.
It's only exciting because it's so stupid.
I don't have kids and won't have kids, but I definitely didn't have those things growing up in a suburb. It's not at all required unless you're homeschooling.

This is a case of lifestyle inflation and then complaining about lifestyle inflation. Public school is good enough, your kids aren't better than the rest of the people in SF.
No, most of them work fine in vanilla sh too :-)
> What exactly is the problem with a declining population anyways?

Federal social programs are all pyramids schemes.

They depend on having a large tax base entering the bottom, either immigrants or young people, to constantly keep them funded.

The less people at the bottom, the less funding, and now you have austerity programs that have to take effect to prevent the programs from running out of money.
Definitely! I really despise ads. I'm really happy this business model is working out. Even if only one in 200 people join the Patreon it's plenty to be profitable.
I'm confused. Fertility is one's ability to conceive children but this article seems to be about one's situational want to conceive children. Is fertility rate the rate at which women are getting pregnant or the rate of the ability of women getting pregnant?

If we're saying that only groups of people will be able to own the means of production I have a guess who those groups (maybe we should call it a class?) will be.
The problem with any solution in US is focus on hyperlocal policing.

US, even if it has private medicine, has tons of regulations around it - like requirement to have regulated medical degree to practice medicine.

For some reason it's impossible to pass law that police needs to have some regulated degree to practice policing.
From the point of view of the model, there is no text, only a stream of tokens. There is no need for all tokens to map to valid ascii or unicode. You could have an arbitrary number of tokens for control flow that mean something to the software, but don't have a canonical way to encode in text.
And it fails at that, all the format is is being annoying, and having to go thru links to random github gists is extra annoying if you didn't know the answer and want to just learn

It's not all or nothing forever. It look a long time before IBM came down. I would call domination for as long as they did a win.

Openness of the platform has nothing to do with what I'm talking about, it is their prevalence as a company on many areas even when there were perfectly good alternatives.
I think the problem is during this transition from a bottom heavy to a top heavy population distribution. Suddenly, you don't have enough of a young and robust workforce to support your aging population. Labour shortage means you can't focus enough on growing and you have to focus more on maintaining the existing infra. You see signs of this happening in Japan already [1]. On the other hand, a situation like this may be ripe for deploying automation across sectors!

Don't do it yet otherwise you will fill disappointed by teething problems. Do it in 3 months and then - if they keep the current dynamics - you will be able to work with GA more comfortably and only encounter minor bugs.
That's a very US-centric view, which really points out how terrible US schools really are.
Virtual Threads are actually in their second preview which means it might not be years before we see them standard in the JDK.
This seems overly pessimistic (unsurprising given that it’s written by an eventual fascist). Egalitarian societies do exist, but they take work to maintain. The Mondragon corporation functions as a cooperative despite its large size. I know less about it’s day to day organizing that I’d like to unfortunately, would be very interested to learn more.
Are you really promoting your half a million dollar home lifestyle as the affordable and approachable way? And it appreciated how much over four years?

The so-called "Golden State Killer" was a cop, which excluded him from investigations for decades.
It was explained to me back in the stone age that one did 3 syncs because disks were slow enough that if you did one sync all the buffers might not be flushed before the reboot took hold. So do 3 syncs to make sure. Borking a filesystem wasn't fun.

Not saying it's correct, and it's still a habit for me.

The End of Front-End Development
It’s right in front of you

With automation, why do we need so many people to work? Even without Chat GPT or whatever… after Amazon builds an amazing framework to run X part of their business, they can just let the business intelligence and maintenance be mostly automated, fire 90% of the developers and have a few people be around to tweak and maintain it.

I never understood why these tech companies needed so many people in the first place
You presuppose some monolithical "they".
Thanks for reminder. This was a blog post after we hit the connectx() troubles :)

Tubular/sk_lookup is about ingress.

This blog post is about connected sockets on “egress”.

Actually, bpf sk lookup could be used on egress, but its not quite yet implemented
I'm not who you're responding to, but I voice code for most of my SWE job. The technology that exists today is far better at editing existing code than writing code from scratch, making copilot and other boilerplate generators an enormous productivity gain for voice coders. The ADA is exceptionally accommodating, if the employee can make an argument that their productivity is hindered due to a disability and a tool can help, it's very likely to be approved.
It should be noted that the GP was asking a different question - they were asking whether OpenAI might have any claims of copyright over the output of their model, so that they might sue you for using the output of their model for your own business.
IPCC: Climate Change 2023
Not the commenter, but I'm a little sad ThinkPads didn't keep up.

They have an ARM64 offering, but it's PlaySkool premium.
Most outages nowadays are caused by misconfigurations or hacking, not individual data centers going down. Think Azure, AWS, etc.

Renewables aren't a panacea, but they exist now and are seeing growing deployment, even without "fuel sources becoming less plentiful". Too late to prevent climate change, but definitely early enough to prevent widespread power scarcity.

Oh, companies will definitely try, and many people will go along with it. But, people who care will continue to maintain self-hosted projects e.g. Home Assistant. Hardware can be jailbroken, and/or small manufacturers will be willing to charge a premium for open/hackable versions. Worst case, many "smart" items can be cobbled together from Raspberry Pi/ESP32/ESP8266.
I drink and bike.

I'm debating with myself how safe it is. Currently I'm still on "it's fine" side of things. I'm open the change though.
One big con you missed is "where do you keep it?" Cargo bikes big enough for (say) one adult plus two large children basically take up the space of a small car. I have room for bikes (and cycle to work myself) and a car in London (and I need my car for journeys outside London) but no way I would have room for a cargo bike as well.
For the uninitiated, what kind of things? I mean are these things that are necessary for desktop operating systems, but overkill when used as a DSP or something like that? I mean these aren't dumb people working on this so I wonder what this trade-off is.
As I state in a sibling above this is not the case it is just how we think as humans. You do a lot more harm to you kids and family by driving them in a car.
So you think no corporation should be able to decide anything, everything should be left to pseudodemocratic EU agencies that are mostly concerned with clinging to power?

Which, by the way has nothing to do with any of the points I was making, and is just the typical hurr durr Apple bad response.
