Anti-natalism is a self-defeating philosophy. To continue in existence beyond a single human lifespan, it needs its opponents, and it needs to continuously succeed (generation after generation) in converting the children of its opponents. It will usually succeed in converting a handful, but never enough to overcome the built-in numerical advantage that the opposition has. It is never going to win, certainly not by convincing people.
>I know a master carpenter/craftsman who makea >500k a year,

I have a very close family member who is a master carpenter who does finish carpentry (like cabinets) for billionaire's homes and other large projects in LA. He has never made more than 120k, though he works union so possibly that's what limits him.

How does your friend make that much?
A great example of this is my sailing buddy.

Last year, we probably spent 60 hours working improvements and noncritical fixes, 100 hours on discussions and watching videos, and about 6 hours sailing.
> you are paying $75 an hour for the lowliest apprentice.

> But you go on Reddit, and the poor schlubs in the rest of the country are making <$20 an hour to start.

These are not inconsistent at all. The poor schlubs in New England might also be making under $20 per hour. The contractor is taking the rest (and paying quite a bit of it in insurance costs). Some of it is justified, in that the "lowliest apprentice" will have to have her work checked, and possibly re-done. A risk premium. Also, that "lowliest apprentice" is getting her $20 even when not on billable work. She might only be doing paying jobs half of her time.
A lot of people here aren't getting it. There is allegedly a huge pile of money waiting to be scooped up by newcomers, if only they would learn a trade.

Think about this premise. If something about it doesn't quite make sense, that's because it's untrue. You might as well encourage people to try out for the NBA because you "know a guy" who makes millions playing basketball.
Users: The UI/UX of 1Password 7 is pretty good. We're happy.

1Password: Yeah, but we're bored. So, we'll release an abomination as 1Password 8 and then spend years trying to figure out why people hate it.
They make a good point about misinformation control being a losing battle, but:

> common people are too impressionable to be trusted with their own senses

No, no one can be trusted. I consider myself a Stable Diffusion "enthusiast" and was messing with GANs before that, and I know I can't tell if an image is fake or manipulated, even while staring at it blown up. Video has some temporal/encoding tells but will be the same way soon. This is not something one can "vaccine" themself against, I just have to have some faith in semi credible sources.

And if you really trust nothing on the internet... that is a dark road. Thats how you get into insular extremist echo chambers.
Mastodon absolutely does not scale that far and this should be considered fact.
Far smaller instance owners sometimes complain about bills of hundreds of USD per month.

So the only way to scale up "indefinitely" is by having many small/medium-sized instances, but not really. In a 100M+ network, instances will suffer due to the wasteful nature of federation plus social media being append-only.

Costs will forever go up and this doesn't even mention the burden and liabilities of moderation.

Amidst all our hate for big social, we've forgotten about all the things they do very well. They are (financially) free. They are reliable and scale up without you noticing. You do not have to generally worry about your entire account and content being gone because some mod gave up. If you don't do anything funny, all your content is preserved, forever. Moderation works reasonably well, even if never perfect.

We've taken all that for granted. But it costs billions, an army of engineers, mods, legal, marketing, UX, top notch infrastructure to make it run and work this smoothly.

The idea that a bunch of enthusiasts can replicate this, is misplaced.
If you count them all being on the screen, then yes
I dunno where you were at, but as a student admin at another major ARPAnet/NSFnet site we were using DNS on everything worth the admin time to configure it by 85/86 and noone was regularly FTP'ing HOSTS.TXT unless they had to (e.g. our BITNET connected machines had an IP gateway, but no DNS software for IBM VM/CMS and for a while).
I have. It's essentially a write-only DSL for CSS that, were you to group it via @apply or similar, you have reinvented CSS classes. In fact I had a huge thread discussion on HN about this:

This comment seems to assume that technological progress is cumulative in nature and that we can't go backwards -- it's either the same level as now or will increase. There will be future collapses, dark ages, etc. The question is when, not if. History is already full of so many examples of this.
I wonder if this just means that Microsoft will provide separate, alternate installers for Office without Teams on a hidden section of its website.
I have the same problem. I use a different email account if I absolutely must send to a Microsoft account (for my benefit). If not, I just don't bother replying after it bounces. Now it's my problem and Microsoft's users' problem.
This is exactly why I switched my sport of choice from cycling to running. In cycling, I kept getting pulled into the gear and tinkering. (It didn't help that I raced cyclocross, so during race season, every Monday was spent cleaning and repairing the result of the previous day's races). TBH, it was fun, but if I spent as much time training as I did tinkering, maybe I would have had some decent race results.

With running, it's harder to believe that the gear is what's holding me back from performance. Get a rotation of shoes, and that's pretty much it. My shorts and tops probably need to be replaced at this point before their growing transparency scandalizes the neighborhood, but as long as they're light and sweat-wicking, it doesn't matter too much what I replace them with.

But then I made the mistake of getting into rock climbing...
How is this any different than a human saying the same thing?
That's 5 times a day minimum on the street in front of my house. It's enough to interrupt conversations.

I just don't get the appeal.. maybe hearing your RPMs to know when to shift? Even that would be overkill to the extreme.
The problem is Microsoft is unwilling to unblock you even if you contact their support and jump through all the hoops to show you aren't a bad actor. They are of course incentivized to do this by cost cutting and in the hopes people will use their service rather than self host.

I don't want to further incentivize their behavior so I refuse to use them. All my self hosted emails go to Apple and Google inboxes just fine.
> You're assuming that your guns will protect you from random acts of gun violence, which they won't.

You’re assuming gun control laws will protect you from random acts of gun violence, which they won’t. Criminals get their hands on guns they can’t legally possess every day. There are more than enough gun control laws on the books and most Americans aren’t voluntarily turning theirs in no matter what the law says.

You’re also making the false assumption that I only support the personal right to bear arms for self defense against criminals. I also support it to defend against tyranny, which to me is far more likely to be a threat than a random act of gun violence.
Right, the absolute garbage that is corporate disclosure aids and abets the scam cum business model
This is the killer feature I was missing! Pay money for usage and the way the app interacts with users, and they have crossed their hearts that they won't "spy" on us (which can change any other time in their terms and conditions). Who wants to bet they will find a way to stuff "privacy focused apps" in the vault? Why not?
My guess is once the date sees a nicer house, car, and bank account, the college degree bump drops like an anchor.
Residential is easy. Memorizing the code is the hardest part, and as a DIYer you can just go look that up as necessary to make sure you've got the right pieces.
AI is taking your job I'm afraid.
HSA is great for self employed, esp. if you think you'll remain so for a long time (and don't require better insurance). Tax free contributions, tax free gains, and tax free withdrawals. I have 10 years worth of maximum contributions in one and have never taken a penny out. You can save healthcare related receipts (which includes things like lasik to cold/flu OTC meds) to pay yourself back as well. Use Fidelity, pick boring index fund with low admin costs (FZROX), and thats it.

Very big fan of these investment vehicles and wish there were more. They work best if you're healthy but still good if you use the doctor sometimes, you'll save money. HSAs, however, prob don't have a place in our system long-term, I predict future universal healthcare/phasing out of private insurance. Funding your own healthcare, with tax benefits, is blasphemy among certain schools of thought and would not funnel money into the bigger pool required for universal, which I disagree with.
To me the Empire State Building is a great example of how modern risk management introduces significant risk to a project. IMO the time taken to complete a project is frequently the most critical risk factor. The lack of computerisation and bureaucracy meant that the focus was on how to build it rather than on how to “manage” it.

But I don’t understand the problem with NEPA. Can someone explain? Protecting the environment seems, on its face, to be a good thing.
> there are lots of hourly employees who work 32 hours and would like to work 40 hours and get benefits.

benefits should not depend on how many hours your work
This is very insightful and I agree 100% :)
There is a one-time cost of building (or downloading) the Nix derivation's binaries. But then it is a native binary. With Docker on Mac, the cost continues.
They are harder to find now but we always used metal tennis ball cans in a pot of boiling water. Wax in the cans of course.
> Science would have been abolished, stopped immediately

Most invaders in history did not violently impose their own philosphies and idealogies on day 1. Generally you let the conquered people keep their philosophy and religions to a big extent until the population has adopted it naturally through softer means, Islam specifically has a few verses around tolerance for "people of the book". Islam for example puts higher taxes on the non-muslims and people will then naturally gravitate towards Islam. Once the population has islamized to a higher percentage the islamic ideology will be implemented more deeply.
If nothing else it would certainly be a trip.
Rarely true, you can almost always work on your own house. You can't work on anyone else's. And you should still pull permits, though it seems like most people skip it, especially for small stuff.
If you are not paying for it, you are not the customer, but the product.
What a timely article. While I'm not a junior, I did take a down-level at my current job because it's a completely different field. So, even though I'm not junior, I've felt the affects of this as well.

However, the main problem I've had is social isolation. I'm going to be quitting my remote job and don't plan to work fully remote again for the foreseeable future.
Because SRI focused on gov/mil/intel projects, and Xerox shipped commercial products? There are lots of places like SRI you've never heard of unless you come from their world (e.g. RAND, General Atomics, etc.).

From your comment, a reader would be misled to think that these nutrients cannot be obtained in sufficient quantities outside meat. My post is not meant to be either pedantic or insightful but to correct that misconception.
I'd probably pay someone to redo the panel. I could definitely do it, but it's tedious and I'd be pulling the meter to get it done anyway, at which point the conversation with the power company will be smoother if a licensed electrician is having it.

But everything else is fair game. It's really straightforward. The part I hate the most is fixing the drywall if I have to damage it running some new wire.
No it isn't. I prefer Nvidia's GPT and the (actually) open GPTs. GPT is used by non-specialists to refer to whichever app they're using at the time, whether that uses an OpenAI API behind it or not.
Are you a tradesman?
With the warning that rpath!=runpath, both are called rpath, and which you get depends on your linker and whether you also pass -Wl,--disable-new-dtags

Runpath is the default, and also the one that is non-transitive and overridden by environment variables.
You can expect what you like. It doesn't make it correct or not stupid or the opinion of the public in general.
The US is unique in its enormous bargaining power. US power underlies the whole framework of international institutions today. No international treaties poses a serious threat to the US. Just look at what consequences the US suffered for starting a war in Iraq.
Out of interest what is the added value of using the Youtube app over visiting youtube on a webbrowser?
I think we have to generally assume HTTPS is the "new Telnet" for protocol bootstrapping and may be so for some time to come. Everyone has HTTPS debugging tools of every level "already installed" (curl/httpie/web browsers/fiddler/etc) and are mostly already trained in them. Every language under the sun has strong HTTPS libraries. Meanwhile, HTTPS gives a nice baseline for things like security (TLS was designed for multiple protocols, but let's face it is best tested and deployed in HTTP and always has been), caching, compression, many quality-of-life and quality-of-service tools. It's so much easier to bootstrap protocols from HTTPS as a baseline than "from scratch like an Apple pie" just as HTTP and Email themselves bootstrapped from Telnet. In the post-TLS era, bootstrapping directly from Telnet doesn't seem like an easy bargain anymore and yeah there are definitely advantages to getting your TLS and a bunch of other useful features/services "for cheap as nearly free" all at once in something like HTTP/3 (even if that is inheriting possibly "a lot of complexity").
No, that's just their PR. The vast majority of people don't know what OpenAI is, nor care.
> "dominant influence" does not mean "exlusive" or even "majority", but "that which has the greatest overall impact in a specific area"

The burden of proof for "high impact" is heavy. I recommend reading some of the articles by the Inarah Institute <http://inarah.net/publications> on how shaky the dominant Islamic history narrative is.

To clarify: It is unclear what the direction of the influence is. Was it Islam that impacted/influenced what happened in Persia, or was it the Persian/Syriac/Nestorian culture that created something called "Islam."
While I won't check my facts, it feels likely the publication is to blame on this one. I'm pretty sure the Egyptians are not referring to it as anything in English. Meanwhile, how can a writer resist playing on "the world's largest river in Egypt"? (Okay, perhaps they should have resisted harder.)
Shame...National Cash Register had so much character. Like the similarly depreciated American Telephone & Telegraph.
Yes, Android has a notifications API that lets you process all notifications. (This is in addition to the channels mentioned in the sibling comment.) This is not possible on iOS, except maybe for web notifications with a browser extension. I find that situation untenable for any power user of productivity apps, akin to using email without filter rules.
It’s the audible equivalent of “being seen”. Commanding the attention of others around them feels good to some people.
I’m genuinely sorry, I didn’t mean to insult you.

My point is that these fears are outdated. We have the technological capability to provide lift with hydrogen safely.
At this point, I'd happily become a tradie if I could skip the slaving away part and go directly to owning the business.

I know someone who did that, and totally illegally. Told his customers he was a licensed electrician but it was actually one of his employees' licenses he was giving. Got away with it while he earned his way into his own license. More risk than my personal tolerance would allow.
how much do you think is fair? the platform, APIs, and developer liasing are not free. what “tax” is fair so that apple can build the platform that enables developers to make money?
My bet is everyone who's gone through the process of becoming a journeyman or master electrician would fight tooth and nail to keep the apprenticeship system. It's not going away.
You sound like I might be able you convince you to join my furniture cooperative. Shall I send you our ESPP agreement?
> If the user resells the key, Microsoft can now also get paid a transfer fee baked into the NFT contract.

Not if people just swap NFT accounts and sell their keys+accounts in their entirety.

IE: Microsoft sells LicenseKey to NFT-Account#1234. The owner of NFT-Account#1234 sells the *ENTIRE ACCOUNT* on the secondary market, for a lower price than Microsoft's official price.

What you don't get is that human consumers don't like people locking them down, and people will find extremely easy ways to avoid the "trap" you hoped to put them in. And the reason this happens is economic incentives. You can't beat microeconomics on this one.
produce more ozone pollution than all of California’s tens of millions of cars, combined

Because cars don't fucking produce ozone. In many cases the concentration of ozone at a car's exhaust is lower than at its intake. I'm so tired of this statement being trotted out in articles about two-stroke engines. It's like saying a single poultry farm emits more rotten eggs than a whole state's dairy farms combined.
You should be able to transfer a rollover IRA to your latest employer's 401k (and I think a regular, non-Roth, non-rollover IRA as well). One could probably enjoy unrestricted security choice of the traditional brokerage, then move funds back to the 401k before doing a backdoor Roth.

That said, I would talk to a financial advisor before moving large sums of money between account types. My 2c.

Benatar is well aware that his philosophy will not be influential and will not lead to (significantly) more people not procreating. He just says that his arguments need to be said, and he just says them.
Same here. We have some activity in the actual teams (channels), but most of it is like you say, DM's, calls and meetings.

We use the SharePoint integration to make it easy for support to find files and documentation.

I've actually been trying to push more of it into the teams (channels), but the giant group chat is persistent... I think most regular folks just aren't aligned with the concept of chat channels.
I'd love to use bard, but I was dumb enough to pay for a custom domain and workspace. Thank you google for your incompetence.

Howdy, this product sounds very similar to something I've been looking for. Almost signed up.

However, I gotta say, there's no examples of the product actually being used on the site. No audio recordings, no video showing someone using it. The website is not bad, but it's missing something essential: your product in action. If you want to earn my trust and my subscription, please show me it working!

Thanks for letting us know and I hope this helps you guys. All the best.
It's the best for web servers because the alternatives aren't really designed for that space or are badly designed in general.
This is very true, I've talked to so many contractors doing work for me who were in their 20s and already had back problems far worse than anything I've yet experienced (and I haven't been 20-anything for decades). To a rough approximation, all of them.

I did meet an older plumber, though. I asked him about it and he said his trick was that he only did new construction, no repair. Much easier work. On the occasion he had to do any re-work, his son did it.
Equally interesting from that link is the fact that people have been having this same discussion for 15 years.
How awful that they don't add "backup options" but just "backup to their cloud".

How nice it is for all 3 letters agencies and google employees that they have your passwords and your otp all in their cloud. In clear. All that is needed for having the keys to all your other kingdoms.
Can some one test fizzbuzz, sounds silly tho a lot of models fail on the combination check in my tests.
Yeah, this is basically the current way to get into the market in Phoenix.
Authy used to share its SDK TOTP codes with attackers via account recovery, and no backup password was needed. SMS hijacking led to authenticator takeover on Authy SDK-using sites like Coinbase. Which is partly why Authenticator and co. were originally designed to prohibit secret backup.
Depends on the bus, but my new “favorite” alert on my Apple Watch is the one that pops up in the tube between San Francisco and Oakland letting me know that it is now 90db and about 10 minutes of exposure to this level of noise can cause hearing loss. I believe it also accounts for the reduction in noise I’m already experiencing from my AirPods Pro, so this is 90db through the noise reduction.

Also it takes about 10 minutes, maybe a little bit less, to get through the Transbay tube. Maybe bring hearing protection if you take it everyday.
Ask HN: How to find senior position focused on “pure” tech?
Hi HN!

(Using an alt account to avoid exposing my identity to my current employer...)

I've worked in $big_tech as a senior engineer for 5 years. I've worked different teams, but invariably being "senior" makes me the highest-level individual contributor on the team and I take up some sort of tech lead role.

I've realized that I don't enjoy tech lead work [1] that much, and what really interests me is more "pure" tech work instead - coding and designing, plus the problem to solve is an interesting tech problem rather than a business one.

This seems only possible if I am not the highest-level individual contributor on the team, in other words the team has to be staffed exclusively of senior engineers. The $big_corp I work for has some such teams (mostly teams working on core infrastructure or important libraries) but unfortunately not in my location (UK).

So I'd like to look in the job market for such positions, but then I'm at a loss in how to find them. A search for keywords like "senior tech team" renders the same result as a search "senior tech position" which is not really what I want.

Any tips? Or suggestions of interesting companies that have teams that satisfy my criteria and are hiring? Thanks.

[1] I spend say 2/3 of my time planning projects, helping colleagues scope their work, matching tech decisions to business needs, plus doing some light "politicking" to get partner teams on the same page as my team.
It doesn't sound to me like GP was placing blame on people for leaving of their own accord and it really doesn't help to disparage how people get their social interaction. I enjoy the social aspect of the office and someone leaving has no bearing on that.
