Yes, ergo I believe there are differences.

But you didn't address my point. Do you believe that explanations produced via tarot or zodiac should be treated with that same level of deference? That explanations from ouija boards are things we "might as well go with"?
I think commenters might not be aware of potential legal consequences of various approaches to quitting your job. Employers might no option but to get you out the door immediately. It depends on the domain. IANAL so I will not comment on specifics only to say that, as an employer, I've had to consult our attorney in cases where we were working on government/aerospace programs.

On the other side of the equation, years ago I had one of our engineers tell me he was starting a business and would likely have to leave in three months (over the summer). As much as I didn't like the idea of him leaving, I thought it was a fantastic move for him. I am 100% pro-entrepreneurship and fully supported his decision. In fact, during the that summer --the last three months he worked for us-- we all went out of our way to help him in any way we could. I wanted to personally make sure he launched into his new business with a solid footing.

As a result the transition was beautiful. We even threw a party in celebration just before he left. We still keep in touch. He is doing well. After he left he was happy to come over a couple of times and help resolve things we missed during the transition.

If you treat people like human beings and show them you truly care for their wellbeing everything is better. Companies come and go. People, and their relationships, tend to stay. If sometime in the future I closed-down my business and needed a job, I know I could reach out to him and get hired if he needed help.

I don't say this in a religious sense: Treat others the way you would like to be treated.

To answer the obvious question: In the couple of cases where the attorneys said immediate release was required, we went way out of our way to explain why this had to be. We also provided a solid financial cushion in order to ensure the person leaving didn't jump into a vacuum. It sucks when legal-crap gets in the way of considerate, compassionate human relations. Sometimes you have no options on the table.
The radio spectrum is a finite resource that can only be (reasonably) consumed locally. The internet is for all intents and purposes infinite.

One of the purposes of government is to oversee the distribution of scarce resources in a way that avoids the tragedy of the commons.

This use case clearly applies to the EM spectrum allocation and clearly doesn't apply to the internet so I think comparing the internet and radio is a flawed analogy.
>As the employee submitting your notice - have your ducks-in-a-row before turning in your notice as it maximizes your chance for a smooth exit.

Right. If you have vesting events, expected bonus payouts, etc. wait until after those happen before giving notice as opposed to just assuming the employer will keep you on the payroll as an employee for those two weeks.
Because she's not a Republican, and competitive primaries for long-time incumbents are often political suicide for the challenger. Voters have a poor set of choices and select the least bad.
> The authoritarian elitist crowd doesn't seem to like it when the unwashed masses develop these skills; they'd prefer to have a population of brainwashed zombies who get all their propaganda from a government-provided list of 'acceptable sources' and who don't have the cognitive capacities and practical skills needed to independently test claims for veracity.

While I agree with you, I don't think challenging this is wise.

A large number of people lack the fundamental intellect required for critical thinking. Give them a nugget of truth (or even a total falsehood) and they will extrapolate it to the point of an entire ideology (QAnon)...because they're smarter than the rest of us idiots, see. They have critical thinking skills!

Thanks to the internet anybody can appoint themselves a source of truth, which just results in chaos. A mentally-ill loudmouth can turn entire segments of the country against itself (and I'm not even taking potshots at anybody in particular). Fewer sources of information is better domestic policy for the masses.

Let the critical thinkers seek out third-party sources to do their own verification. Let the masses eat from a common trough so they don't cause a stampede.

> Currently, fact checking works on straight facts. It does a Google Search and uses LLMs to shorten it.

So your fact-checking LLM is also vulnerable to injection and unethical prompting then when it ingests website text. And a Google search is far, far away from fact checking, particularly for the subtle errors that GPT-4 is prone to making.

Just say "Eid Mubarak" with a warm smile, should be good. Could be followed by a friendly hug and a gift of sweetmeats but that's mostly for family & friends.

And for the curious: the proper response to an "Eid Mubarak!" is "Khair Mubarak!"
Basing laws off laws of another country isn't national continuity. The British didn't just accept the Declaration of Independence and remove their agents from the US. The CCP wasn't formally recognized by the imperial government as the new government of China. There's no continuity of government in either case.
This problem is way larger than tech companies and isn't new. Some examples:

- Richard Gere got canceled for speaking out against China's human rights abuses to the Tibetans at the Academy Awards in 1993 [1];

- The Neil Armonstrong biopic "First Man" didn't have a scene of planting the American flag [2];

- These are examples of a long history of Hollywood bowing to Chinese pressure and interests [3]. Modifying a movie for the Chinese market is one thing. Modifying the global release of a movie to keep China happy is something else.

Now look at the mainstream media just this year. Some examples of stories that got zero or significantly delayed coverage include:

- The train derailment and environmental disaster at East Palestine, Ohio. For a good week you wouldn't even know this was happening if you weren't on Tiktok. Consider the irony of that situation;

- The massive French strikes and protests got almost no play in US media;

Now consider the bias in media coverage:

- Western media in general is unforgivably biased when it comes to Israel [4]. A common technique is deliberate use of active vs passive voice [5]. Example: Shireen Abu-Akleh was "killed" [6]. A more accurate headline would've been "Middle Eastern and American citizen journalist assassinated by Israeli sniper while wearing a blue press helmet and vest".

- Media coverage is unbelievably biased towards the police in cases of brutality and death at the hands of police. Guests on TV will often be former or current police. What about civil rights lawyers or victims rights advocates?

Remember this when the media writes stories about the bias in tech companies. While there might be truth to that, never forget that the media too is incredibly biased.

> 10+ years of Android sideloading and this has not happened.

Android's permission and anti-tracking measures have generally been more lenient. I'm sure if sideloading was permitted when the anti tracking measures rolled out on iOS Facebook would have jumped to side loading ASAP.
I've heard of employers paying signing bonuses to make up for the fact that an employee is leaving a partially-accrued bonus on the table at the employer he's leaving.
But copilot actually outputs code into your project, do you really want citations there? I prefer to just enable the setting for it to not reproduce code verbatim from other projects.
Thanks, I just didn't see it. But then by this measure, since Apple has $165B in cash pre-debt, one would have to fine Apple roughly $64B, or about five Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers, for the metaphor to be apt, not $10B.
I hope this downturn gets rid of leetcode. I really have no desire to grind leetcode whenever I need a new job. I am more than happy to do system design and practical coding questions (ex: integrate with some API like Stripe does), but the leetcode stuff is ridiculous for mid-senior+ level engineers.
US does tend to be on the fairly extreme end of protecting speech.
I find the idea of labelling Rupert Murdoch as an activist very interesting.
I disagree. The US has an entirely different level of crime issues (see guns), but I feel safer about petty crime (pickpocketing, scammers, etc) walking about a typical American city downtown than most European capitals.

Case in point: I have designer brand backpack I frequently carry during traveling. I carry it without a second thought through the US and Asia. I don’t bring it with me to Europe because it’s likely to be a pickpocket magnet.
tbh I think the dividing line is pretty clear:

Many are glad the performance and security nightmare of a runtime is gone, and we have modern replacements for most of what it did. They're not all superior, but I think it's fair to say we're roughly equivalent now, and possibly better, in aggregate.

Most are sad that the excellent, ubiquitous, amateur-friendly authoring environment is gone, and no replacement currently exists. There are many more-specialized ones, but few general ones (and they're far less widely used, though that could change eventually).
not religious either – but the notion that your feelings are "true" and ideals or aspirations that run counter to your feelings are "false" is a very one-sided way to look at this.

If you ask a heroin addict what their true feelings are, the wants and needs of their bodies, it's probably just "get high".

If you ask a 16 year old kid with a porn addiction, it's probably just "get off".

There is no shortage of maladaptive desires in the world, and no shortage of ways to fulfill them. I think you can trace probably half the world's problems to one word: "addiction". The motivation system of the brain gone wrong.

I think what you're trying to point to here is the other half of the world's problems, which is effectively: "acceptance", or rather, the lack thereof. The empathetic system of the brain gone wrong.
If the sole provider isn't acting responsibly, regulators have to allow alternatives.

HOWEVER. This would have been a lot easier if Apple and Google simply reformed their commission models. A take rate of 10% instead of 30% would have prevented this.

> I wish Apple had attacked this from a different perspective. Instead of fighting side loading, remove the reasons that drive a lot of the demand for side loading.

Couldn't have said it better. The only things I could see myself sideloading are indeed the Kindle app (I like being able to single-click buy books without having to switch to Safari), a full browser, and possibly some retro computer, calculator, and console emulators.

All of these are (or at least have been, before I switched) been possible on Android via official apps from the Play Store.
That's not true. You can buy Raspberry PI, which is 10x cheaper and 10x more powerful than the computers at the beginning of 2000s.

Ditto with mobile phones. iPhone may be more expensive than when it launched, but you can buy dirt-cheap chinese smartphones that have similar performance - if not higher to the first iPhones.
It has to start somewhere, keep your scepticism and you'll be rewarded.
Perhaps the unspoken argument is that client-side scanning will be made into a best practice, and websites and apps that don't implement it will be exposed to liability.
As a non-religious gay, I fully agree that continually denying yourself something that makes you happy isn't a virtue.

However, raiding the cabinet of historically religious practices and stripping god out of them can be helpful. A lot of things we do on impulse don't actually make us happy, and cutting them out for a bit can be a good way to examine whether they've become unhelpful/unskillful habits. I don't think drinking is inherently bad, but "dry January" can be a nice way to check that I'm not developing a dependency. I'm glad I have a smartphone but I do find that periodically being completely away from screens is a good check. Sex, food, other substances, media, can all be good but can also become parts of habits that don't actually lead to happiness. Temporary self-denial can be a useful tool in reworking one's relationship to these, even if you're definitely going to keep them in your life in some form.
The vast majority of market value maybe, mass adoptability perhaps. But the biggest value is in the fourth point because it doesn't improve a product, these things were basically unavailable until now!
ID Ransomware
Have you used GDB? And network requests is what Wireshark was created for.

Browser developer tools don't "emulate hardware" they change the viewport and throttle network, there's a huge difference. It seems you don't have much experience in the tools you're comparing against. In GDB you would connect to a running application on actual hardware or in a VM, if that's what you're testing. Screen sizes and network can be done locally.

As far as all-in-one solutions go that's a new goal post, your first comment mentioned "tooling", and hot reloading is not a part of the browser so it's still an "aggregate" as you like to call it.

For me it's the unixy way of doing things and just the way I like it. Do one thing and do it well.
Most publishers do not have this process automated, I assure you. Even so, the theory that an automated process requires no maintenance does not hold water.
This is not true, it clearly does learn

“If it could learn openai would create a new programming language, train it for real, and it would be the greatest programmer.”
I don’t understand what you’re saying here. It can invent new languages, but they would those be better than existing ones? It’s less intelligent than a human (though still intelligent) so the language would be worse than existing ones
> "SRAM went from 2kB to 32kB, and flash memory went from 32kB to 256kB to accommodate more complex projects."

Yawn!

I can get an ESP32-based clone that can be programmed with arduino libraries with more available Flash and RAM for a fraction of whatever they're going to sell this for. What's the value proposition for this Uno R4?

At this point I've pretty much transitioned to doing everything with ESPs anyway.
I mean, if you can grow success without headcount, that's the dream, but sometimes growth means "investing in many different parallel opportunities" so you hire more people to do more in parallel.
« go all the way into orbit » (and down to Hawaï) seems totally fair as a flight plan. Being ok with aborting early is SpaceX decision and I totally get it. Nevertheless, « all they hope was to clear the tower » is quite hard to believe for me but this was only an opinion.

Don’t get me wrong, I understand the first part of the flight was important and considered mostly a success.
> The weirdest part is the HPFS compatibility mode (file.ext:substream).

HPFS had extended attributes, but not substreams. You are thinking about HFS; substreams were added to NTFS to support storing resource forks on network shares used by Macs.
Any reason why non-EVs couldn't get the same aero improvements as EVs?
To counter some of the doom in this thread:

I was laid off this year (it was a tiny business that lost it's only client, so not exactly something in my control). I was doing schematic capture, board design, and RF testing.

I was hired two weeks later by another company for something I've only been doing for ~1.5 years: FPGA design. At a 30% higher salary!
Show HN: Formula Web Component – Fully Reactive Forms from HTML5 Templates
NPM module: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@webhelpers/formula

I had previously released this for Svelte, but I decided to update it to work as a web component.

Out the box it takes any form and creates a set of stores around values and validity that can be used to drive UI, it can also capture a form submit, allowing for migration from old static form to dynamic one, or creating a dynamic one on any static page you include the module on.

It works with HTML5 validation, so you don't need to do any more than add attributes to your inputs in most cases.
Two of my friends did this and were immediately terminated and ushered out of the building by security. Both were very large companies in the US.

No, the entire promise was to eventually have a fleet of autonomous vehicles doing the driving. The human driver phase was just to 1) drive adoption of the app and grow share and 2) generate training data for the self-driving AI models while waiting for the fully autonomous capability to arrive. Scale is irrelevant as long as you are paying humans to drive cars, because that's not a model that can ever scale and will always just be a cab company regardless of size.
> A small scale Uber or Lyft is just a cab company with an automated dispatch agent. It should be valued like a cab company, not a tech company.

IMO the lines are a little fuzzy and the definition of "tech company" seems to be shifting pretty often to fit a specific narrative.

Like why is Netflix considered a tech company instead of a media company (like Disney or whoever owns Discovery +, AMC, or similar) when all they're doing is producing video content on a streaming service but Uber has to be valued as a taxi company when they produce an app that coordinates movement of people, products, and other things?

I guess part of the problem is everything is "tech" so the term is starting to lose meaning except when we want to No True Scotsman something (not that I'm accusing you of doing that here).
I did this in my first job, giving two months of notice because it was the right thing to do for my colleagues and the company since it'd allow transition time and continuity.

Then I was let go immediately. Which was an unexpected hit, though luckily the new company let me move my start date up. This was a tech company with around one hundred employees, and I was in good standing (my then manager later recruited me for a position at a different company).

The best approach is to always give two weeks formal notice on a Friday morning, with the expectation that there's a chance you'll not be coming back on Monday. Best to do all the transition preparation work before that moment. If I've got a manager that I trust, I let them know with a bit more informal advance notice.

ETA: on the other hand, I gave a month or two advance notice to Google, and they were happy to have me stay until my resignation date. My sense is that it's smaller companies that tend to do the immediate layoff.
Ahhh, the memories of naming my folder AUX and then having my Uni professors with administrative privileges not being able to access my files on that folder. Drove them crazy because they thought there is the secret of the Universe hidden there and they demanded I let them see what's inside, when in reality I only wanted to show off and had nothing at all.

This only works if your country is self sufficient, from a resources standpoint and a IP standpoint. If you lack either, you participate in a global economy. And if you participate in a global economy, you need capital.

Say you’re the smart Kenyan who is willing to work. But there is no work in your country, or the only employment you can find is something that doesn’t use your intellect. You are that guy who can fix cars for a living, but there are no cars in the country. There are bicycles to be fixed, but they don’t pay enough to feed your family, or make progress.

You can choose to write essays, make money in dollars and afford a car. You can spend money in the local economy so that others can afford education, grow themselves and afford a car. Eventually you can create your own business locally to fix the cars. Or even better if you manage to make a lot of money, you can build a business that allows others to build their own business.

Or you could continue fixing bicycles, make no money and constantly worry about survival, and never do anything more than fixing bicycles.

And this is how capital and modern economics works. I’m also from one of those places. :)
Nightmarish complexity. It's amazing folks figure out how to navigate this. The friction is such an absurd cost.

Just imagining the legal risk hanging around one's neck had to be an unbelievable tax on entrepreneurs.

Oh, I don't mind the argument itself and empathise with it somewhat, it's the hiding behind "user choice" that I take issue with. If the problem is the $99 fee, which for the actual cost of a signed certificate is quite low, just be honest about it.
Nah the difference is that our governments use the language that works for us.

And they know that language because otherwise they wouldn't be in government.

So the US wants Tiktok to change and uses the language that will resonate with Americans to ban it when Tiktok doesn't fold.

China does the same with the companies it wants to change. That they listen is purely a financial decision.
Yes, and it suggests how even a minor stroke in the brain that damages only a small region of brain tissue could potentially have personality and life altering effects.
Absolutely relevant. Had a huge issue with the University recently about being able to publish in a journal because they wouldn't pay the fees - every point at which there can be a problem, there will be.
I am wondering about this as well - wondering how difficult it would be to build an analog circuit for a small LLM (7B?). And wondering if anyone's working on that yet. Seems like an obvious avenue to huge efficiency gains.
