My favorite word in Dutch is morning greeting: goeiemorgen. In Russian it sounds like dick-morgen which is ridiculous if you're native Russian speaker. This song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9H-ffphZf8&ab_channel=Eurov...) even went viral in Russia because of this (goeiedag sounds like bullshit also).

P.S. Link from the post doesn't open in Russia ("Country blocked") and I had to use VPN to read it lol. It's ONGEZELLIG to block someone read article about cozy and ecologic living.

Wouldn't this mean that all mods should be chosen by Reddit? They would also have to go through the usual processes (verify identity for taxation and age, ensure not a citizen of an embargoed nation, etc)

I know the argument is that content generates revenue for Reddit, but there's no shortage of subs where the mods actively suppress content that doesn't fit the subreddit's goals. In that case, the mods are working against Reddit's interests, and "working for" the subreddit.
This is exactly (same genetic disease) the subject of the book Slackjaw by Jim Knipfel. It's surprisingly a _fun_ read!
When you're exposed to something over and over, you internalize it. Explaining helps with this I'm sure but only slightly.
I'm curious if you have measured power at the well (e.g. smart plug with energy metering or Kill-a-watt.) I just set up a test server with a J1900 (10W TDP.) With 8GB RAM and running from an SSD it uses 25W. Add 4 7200RPM HDDs and it's up to 65W idling.

I have another test server based on a Raspberry Pi 4B. The Pi boots from SD card and uses about 5W. Add 2 drives in a USB drive bay and power for the setup is now up to 25W.
Good point. I suppose it would have to be a lucrative deal to buy back the shares so that there was a fair ROI for shareholders.
> how many actions it takes to achieve something

This is not really objective because you also have to take into consideration how intuitive/simple the UX is. Given 100 related actions, clicking through a logically grouped nested menu or multiple pages to do something is going to require more steps but be something anyone can do. Memorizing and using keyboard shortcuts for all those actions will be more efficient, but isn't something someone could immediately do. There is of course an in-between where you can have menus to display available keyboard shortcuts, but some (most?) people will still prefer a GUI/mouse-based approach. There is no one-size-fits-all approach.
I just want to say this was one of the most enjoyable articles I have read in a long time. It's informative, respectful to critics, and exudes a "confident but restrained" tone that is so rare in public discourse these days.
Another option is to control a power-hungry NAS with a PiKVM device. It can be a cheap Pi Nano device for example.

If you think of them as equals maybe, but it’s not uncommon for large SoCs. Maybe 30 cores in there, with probably two variants of arm, and possibly risc-v and multiple custom ISAs. But let’s say you’ve got a team of 50 hardware people and 100 software people. Most software people are concerned with the Linux kernel running on arm, and the rest of the cores are black boxes to them, might as well be hardware, they just (for example) load NN weights into dram and pop the address into a mailbox, it doesn’t matter to them that the NN accelerator is a mix of fma fabric and a small risc-v core with a team of 6 writing software for it. And the custom ISAs might be completely licensed, so it truly is a black box to everyone, but that IP for uh, usb maybe, also contains a processor and code, maybe.

But I’m not sure if the chiplet architecture adds a lot of complexity for software folks. Even more different power rails to bring up I bet.
Apparently social media is a step too far but other things that he likes should be common again. He might not even be specifically wrong about some practices being harmful, but the given arguments are weak and incidentally they map to a certain kind of reactionary wishlish.

More generally, the discourse tends to boil down to "I was spanked and I turned out fine!".
Sales and VAT do not have to be regressive, that is a shallow and incorrect talking point that has spread. Sales taxes today already make distinction between necessities and luxuries. In other words, there are many ways to implement sales/VAT taxes and the details matter for the outcomes
> There has been a complete loss in any interest in meeting a middle ground

I disagree that this is a new phenomenon per se. There’s always been resistance to some aspects of a middle ground. Consider the case of Anita Bryant, who advocated that not being allowed to discriminate against homosexuals was a violation of her rights as a mother and as a “normal” American. She advocated for homosexuals to be ousted from schools and other environments because in her mind being gay was a corrupting force on children. This was well before the internet.

I also think the concept of cancellation is curious because it’s so fickle and stochastic. On one hand the lady who called the cops on a black man filming her choking her dog still doesn’t have a job 3 years later. On the other hand known sexual harasser comedians are selling out tickets like nothing happened. Hard to square that circle, and I wonder if there are more studies to quantify this phenomenon.

I just went to set up a screen time passcode after reading the article… you are limited to a four digit code. It does limit the number of attempts you can make, but I can’t believe a four digit code is all that’s standing in the way of total account ruin.

I suspect you find Powershell "gross" only in a sense that "it is not a sh-inspired shell", but that's quite subjective. Now, cmd.exe, that is objectively gross. But Powershell? Unless your first shell experience was bash and it imprinted on you, no, it's not gross.
A migrant is more expensive when you have work to do. However a migrant is free when you have no work - they go elsewhere. A slave you need to feed year round, even when it is raining and thus you cannot work.

A slave also needs more management. Migrants and free workers will get themselves to the job and in general work. A slave has no motivation to work harder so you need some form of "slave driver" to keep them working. If you try to move your slaves around like migrants move, then you need a manager to go with the slaves to keep them working - migrants manage themselves.

A slave is cheaper if you have a lot of repetitive, low-skill, year round work that must be done by hand. However most of that type of labor is easy for the industrial revolution to automate.
Don't we have enough of that already?
I’m surprised they don’t talk about “gezelschap”, from which the word is derived. That means companion/companionship.

There IS something wrong with it - It's not the software the author likes, which makes not hating it a personal attack against the author.
His books The Righteous Mind, and Happiness Hypothesis are similarly well written. He narrates the former himself in the Audible version.

I think it checks all your boxes :)
Because they act as a portal and distribution service. The same reason freelance journalists don’t print their own newspapers but instead publish via either a syndicate or directly through papers. The paper has the brand, distribution, ability to monetize and pay journalists for their content, layout staff, etc. Similarly say YouTube is YouTube in the same way the NYT is the NYT - people go to YouTube for content, it provides hosting and distribution as well as ways to promote your content, monetize it, they provide a UX and technical infrastructure, etc.

There is nothing stopping anyone in any RFC or other technical standard from hosting their own content on equal footing with YouTube. People do host stuff on their own machines and sites. You’re just not directly aware of it because it’s basically impossible to find relative to the ease of content discovery on YouTube. No one is getting rich or even paying their bills because on self hosted because beyond having no funnel monetization of content is actually kinda hard.

Case in point, politics aside, Parler and Truth Social were basically formed based off similar thoughts. Why do we let these big companies make content moderation policies? I’d like a place where I can be abusive and racist or whatever without fear of censorship. I’m after all entitled to hold those views and say them. But, it turns out, it’s hard to provide the quality of service of say Facebook on the premise of absolute freedom - especially when it’s so toxic most people are turned off. This gets to the point: you can host yourself, but if you want to build a “free YouTube” you probably need to ask why did YouTube, a for profit entity, take the positions it has in the market? Because the market rewards them for making a family friendly middle ground platform that provides easy access to personalized content and a simple experience for content creators to distribute and monetize their content. Do that on your own systems, and you’ll probably do alright - except one thing. They have the most users. Acquiring users, or in news papers, subscribers, is not easy or cheap.

So, that’s why things are the way they are. But you’re absolutely able to self host. Just don’t expect everyone to show up at your random website.

Whether it is AI that overtake people's jobs, or people using AI that overtake people's jobs, I think the result will (and is) absolutely less available jobs.

It won't happen all at once (though the recent waves of layoffs might be a good argument that it is already happening). I think this is a slow burner that will phase jobs out over the long run:

- New and future openings won't be advertised where an AI tool can do the job instead. Think specifically in the digital art and text space. This means that people will find it difficult to leave their current job to find something better, leading to stunted careers and potentially much lower salaries.

- Current jobs will continue as they are (besides the current waves of layoffs) except for the consultant space. If ChatGPT can act as my personal Deloitte without the €€€'s and at a moment's notice, then of course I'm going to choose ChatGPT.

I see this already happening => https://old.reddit.com/r/blender/comments/121lhfq/i_lost_eve...

I agree with the article: "We don't know".
I won with 1 move left, but I have no idea what was happening. Still don't.
> There hasn't been meaningful updates to Express in a long time.

Because for the most part - it doesn't need them.

Can you build a better express? Maybe. Lots of folks are trying that still, and you're welcome to use the tooling they put out.

Is express dead? Hell no.

Express is well documented, well supported, getting security patches, and comes up entirely clean for a new install (including most of the optional packages you might add).

Express has some sharp edges (it's been mentioned plenty above, but mainly because the framework predates the wide adoption of native promises in the JS space), but again, they're well known and relatively straight forward to work around.

---

Long story short, this:

> It doesn't. That's the whole point. Software is always evolving and I doubt it's even close to complete. There hasn't been meaningful updates to Express in a long time. Why do people use it and/or promote it as a standard?

Is an ignorant take. People promote it because it's a good tool.

Next you'll be telling me that I shouldn't use Bash because Bash 5.0 came out in 2018 and only got two minor point releases over the next 5 years. But that sounds dumb, huh?
Microsoft does not give their license away for free. OEMs pay for every PC they ship. The OEM licensing price is lower than the retail price but the PC buyer most assuredly paid for their copy of Windows. Microsoft just decided they needed to double dip. They make money on the front with licenses and subscriptions and on the back with advertising.
It's what I call a stupid language trick. Don't get me wrong, they can be fun, and I don't hold things like this against you. But when people want me to write production code like that I want to clock somebody with my keyboard. TDD and BDD types get hot and bothered for this sort of thing since it makes the code look like Gherkin or whatever contrived specification language they favor this month.
You are exactly correct but that is not what people really ask. It takes awhile for engineers to realize it. By that time they are stressed out and do not know how to manage the PM. The PM is usually not a subject matter expert they manage tasks. They do not even know they need those things. So they fully expect you 'the expert' to know it. Is it 'right' not really, but it is reality and a side effect of how many people become PM's.

This sounds suspiciously close to "Gesellschaft" in German. Are they related somewhere in the upstream branches?
Got a link or something for me to reference? I have built a few micro itx home servers and have always wondered what a vertically integrated home solution would look like. I've been working on the custom software control plane for it for about 2 years now and gone through several permutations. I run a private cloud with these over mesh vpn and for personal use the cost cannot be beat.

There is a different between enough food and feeling full. Most people want to eat enough to get fat. A slave would be given cheap food, enough that they can work. Starving a slave to death isn't a good use of them. However feeding them so much they get fat isn't economic as well.

Fredrick Douglas didn't have motivation to treat slavery fairly either. (few writers of the day did - thus making it hard for historians to figure out the truth, though in this area there is a lot more data than historians studying something of several thousand years ago).
I have been thinking this for a while. Corporation tax creates so much work, and it would be better to tax certain inflows of money.

So my salary is taxed; my dividends are taxed; my purchases are taxed with VAT, that sort of thing.

Stop making companies employ armies of accountants to figure out all the tax credits/implications/corporate structures etc so the government doesn't take too much.
As it happens, I am in the process of building something pretty close to what you describe. Here is an extremely partial list of reasons people don't do it.

- Written content: because network effects are real. Also because building a blog in 2023 that doesn't have awful look-and-feel or seem like a spam site is remarkably hard. Substack is full of chuds, but you can firewall off from them most of the time and at least you can write things instead of writing code to write things. WordPress is maybe the least bad option today if you want interactivity (which I would assume you do, what with the "community" bit and all), and getting things like SSO (for playing nice with all those other things in that gated community) costs money for dubiously-supported plugins that claim to do things they might not actually do. Ghost has a ton of weird limitations that are often claimed to be by design, so unless you want a plain white (or, if you're bold, black) site that's Just Text and maybe a few images, it's not great either. Static sites--community, no bueno.

- Podcasts: this one is not "because network effects are real", this one's just "because open-source podcast hosting software basically doesn't exist and what does is bad at doing the job." Meanwhile, anchor.fm is free.

- Chats: because network effects are real. And because the options are mostly unpleasant. IRC is difficult and mobile-unfriendly. Mattermost is buggy. Zulip is pretty good, but now you're a sysadmin and most people on Discord just want to shitpost about Pokemon. (I am not doing this, either, because there are limited hours in the day.)

- Videoconferencing: because network effects are real. (You may be detecting a theme here!) And because self-hosting Jitsi is an enormous pain in the rear. And, again, now you're a sysadmin, and most people on Discord just want to shitpost about Pokemon. (Might do this one, just for latency's sake when recording stuff. Haven't decided yet. It is hard. It is also pretty expensive to run.)

- Video content: because network effects are real. Also because I don't own a CDN, and because YouTube is $free dollars per minute watched. Even my former employer, whose stack I quite like, is not $free dollars per minute watched--nor should they be! They're targeting businesses. (Needless to say: definitely not doing this one.)

Gated communities are great, but somebody needs to make achievable these things for normal people, and they're probably going to want money for it. And while I've written plenty of open source software, the stuff I'm building won't really be portable to somebody else because I'm not making decisions for others' consumption. I'm making decisions for exactly my (relatively high) tolerance for system administration and exactly my (relatively high) ability to fix things when they break. I'm going to open-source parts of it, but I can only open-source parts, and they'll still depend on my CMS of choice, etc. etc. unless I spend time not building my thing and instead building abstraction/indirection layers for hypothetical other people.

If you want people to do similar, maybe it should be you who goes and builds the path to doing it?
Hot take: it’s not really Microsoft’s fault or responsibility, as there is no Microsoft to be responsible or faulted for this craziness.

It’s one individual (or two? Or a small team, but really not that big of a group) who is rotten to the core and is so career-obsessed they don’t understand that they are making lives of millions of people worse with this, so that they can just show their PowerPoint to higher up.

It is a personal responsibility of a PM / engineer (unlikely) to not come up with this cancer.
I think it makes sense for hatchbacks, where there's no real trunk/passenger cabin separation.
With all due respect, that's not my problem. I am supposed to be innocent until proven guilty. My rights are not supposed to be stripped from me without due process. What my neighbor does is irrelevant. The fact that a wrong is common now does not make it less of a wrong.

Edit for clarification: It is not my duty to surrender my rights and accept collective guilt for another's crimes in order to make things easier on government agents.
Data structures require mapping a conceptual model ("philosophy") to a representation by a physical machine. As a data structure engineer you will need to make engineering decisions such as alignment of data, data-precision (*), and behavior under different runtime regimes (single threaded, concurrent). All those are technical decisions that a mere 'philosophy' is not equipped to address.

* a hot topic in ML world actually. Precision required for the params.
what would you say was the lesson of athens? a quick search shows a wide range of opinions on different subjects, many of which are interesting.
How much is it actually using the PDF and how much is just normal Chat GPT knowledge? I uploaded a KJV bible and it seems to be doing pretty good with theological issues, like it knows salvation is by grace through faith alone which is my litmus test for any theological program. However, it seems to be just as honed in as Chat GPT is without even uploading a PDF.
It seems india is also now improving economically.

So If I was betting man, I would be going long on india right now.

Not only do they've excellent educational institutions i.e IIT that have produced many tech CEO's.

And given, h1b backlog - many indians will likely opt to now stay in india and produce homegrown companies such as the chinese have done. Hence reversing Brain drain. They've the population numbers to support such.

What's left to ponder is whether they will solidify their other institutions to allow the right growth trajectory.

Re: Google

I assume they still have the "offline maps" feature, but you set it up and select regions by yourself. I have no idea why they haven't automated that using their location tracking and AI features.

Re: iMessage
Yes that's a shame. Only excuse I can imagine is there should be some timeout by how much a message is allowed to be delayed.
And because of SMS delivery etc this would probably cause a lot of complexity (cellular has its own queueing system, at least here, and it's unreliable)
Somewhat related -- our company has been making use of "R&D credits" (Canadian thing), basically getting the govt to subsidize the business. This never sat right with me, but we were a struggling startup so fair is fair. We've been bought out by a big American corp, and they continue to leverage this approach (why wouldn't they? it's free money!), but it REALLY bugs me.

Calling what software engineers do "R&D" seems such a stretch. You're not doing any research, you're not developing anything new. It's just a coincidence that the word "development" is in the job title. We're closer to factory workers than research scientists, by a lot. Just putting existing widgets together in well-defined ways to implement whatever business workflows.
