I don't think you were too aggressive with theories 3/4 at all. The impacts from the pandemic, the Federal Reserve's reckless monetary policy, Congress' inability to figure out how to deal with the US debt, and Wall Steet's continual pursuit for profits are all pointing to an economic disaster. We're just continually spiraling into the calamity to come and everyone is in a petty blame game and culture war.
It would be worse in different ways.

1. There’s a lot of backlash against Twitter’s new owner for his change in editorial policy. Users or tweets that would have been previously removed are no longer being censored. On a government-run platform protected by the first amendment, no censorship would be permitted. That’s mean you would have, for better or worse, a ton of racist content, conspiracy theories, violent images, pornographic images, and fake news.

2. There’s a lot of concern of data security and privacy. If you don’t trust Zuckerberg with your data, would you trust the government?

3. People flock to services that other people widely use. There are numerous social network alternatives these days, but people still flock to the major ones like FB, IG, TikTok, etc. Would anyone want to use FedBook? I have my doubts that a government-run social media platform would gain any real traction.
My very first sentence is "This is probably not even the right debate to be having." And then I tried to describe why it seems to be happening.

I don't know what you are missing that you think I'm arguing for censorship.

It’s all speculation and rumors unless you got insider knowledge of how the layoffs were organized specifically and the motivation behind them. How would you know what their strategy and goals were before and after layoffs?

Like I said this complaining of layoffs is ridiculous.

Most qualified people have no problem finding a job. I could get fired and have multiple offers within 2 weeks.

Get so good they can’t ignore you and network to make sure people know how good you are.

it’s really no different than this personal example:

I hired a lawn scaping guy after dealing with leaves and bushes by myself. The guy did a decent job the first time he serviced the yard. The subsequent times he showed up for 15 minutes trimmed the tiny grass area in front of my house and left, when he was supposed to do much more. I caught him on the ring camera and after 2-3 times of him coming by for just 15 mins to hit the yard with an edger and bill me $100 , I fired him.

Then I bought the tools and did my own yard work for a few months. I got tired of it and saw my neighbor had a hard working guy maintaining his yard. Got that guy hired and now I don’t do my own yard work anymore and the guy I hired is cheaper and more thorough when he does my landscaping.
"Emergent property" is a very fitting, useful and appropriate description for complex behavior that results from simple rules.

An example would be the centrifugal force, which "emerges" from basic Newtonian inertia.

Or the skin effect in AC electrics which (like pretty much ALL of circuit theory) is just a consequence of a few electrodynamic laws (Maxwell etc.).

But just knowing the basic laws does NOT mean that we can grasp all of the emergent behavior that necessarily follows-- physics => chemistry => biology would be the same thing, otherwise :P

No, they had not. It takes several years to refuel the reactors and check them. At this point they are empty because of the long planned shutdown. Additionally, it would cost billions in penalty, because of the poor decisions of past conservative government. And finally, the nuclear fuel for Germans reactors comes from Russia, which would defeat the whole purpose of all sanctions in the last year.

that's the right of every people here in EU. If you offend me (online or offline) I can sue you and you could face trial.

It's called defamation.

Nothing to see here.

EDIT: insult here must be read using its most informal meaning (offense sufers the same destiny), not the legal one. We have different wording for the two circumstances "ingiuria" for the legal term which has been depenalisedd years ago and "insulto" to mean offending someone.

Saying to someone "pedophile" is both an insult (a personal attack) and can be defamation, if the person is not a pedophile.

The system is designed to be highly protective of the presumption of innocence, a judge must decide if the circumstances need to be solved in a trial by another judge or the case can be dismissed because there isn't enough substance to call it defamation.

So every depiction of EU being swift to put people in jail for their opinions is highly exaggerated.

Impressive! I asked, "How did oral argument go in that home equity theft case?" The case, Tyler, was argued in the Supreme Court yesterday.

The response, while brief, lines up with my read of the transcript:

The oral argument in the Supreme Court case Tyler v. Hennepin County indicated that the justices were likely to rule in favor of the homeowner's property rights.

Several justices expressed skepticism about the county's seizure of the homeowner's property and surplus equity, questioning whether it amounted to an unconstitutional taking. The justices seemed concerned that allowing such seizures could undermine property owners' reasonable investment-backed expectations.

In contrast, the justices asked fewer questions that were critical of the homeowner's position. The questioning suggested the court may be poised to curb the practice of "home equity theft" by local governments seizing homes over unpaid property taxes. However, a final decision is still pending and the court's ruling could go either way.

At least you could meaningfully compare using "<" and ">". You can't do that with codenames.
yesh, treat it more like a "reverse engineer a broken system" challenge than a "real world problem solving" challenge.
It's not just German. Language groups around the world are struggling to fit English vocabularly into their language. My favorite English borrowing into Polish is probably kolesław (pronounced something like COAL-eh-suave) for coleslaw, but there are so many that it's hard to choose. Poles in Chicago decline "Milwaukee" (the street) as if it were a Polish plural ("na Milwaukach"). I'm fairly OK in Polish but still find it impossible to pronounce "cheeseburger" the way they do in Poland.
What end-user friendliness is missing from syncthing?
You sort of hit the nail on the head there. That's not a physical button. It's a physical button tied to terrible software. The software is the problem, and if the button either changed the volume in an analogue way (ideal), or Subaru had engineers who were writing better software (both less ideal and much less likely to happen), there would be no issue.

Those numbers should be normalised for a fair comparison.
Not the OP but something like a hardware / chemistry lab or the need to comply with government-classified secret protection would be a good reason. Basically, stuff that you can't legally and/or reasonably do from home, or from other countries.

Additionally, in some jurisdictions regulations require that certain kinds of documents - mostly HR and finance - are to be kept in offices as well.
That's maybe part of a more general "perceived inability of some Muslims to handle polemics against their religion with grace" (from the article). Searching for "bobblehead Jesus" vs "bobblehead Mohammed" on Amazon is a good example of that.

The more disturbing issue is the ECHR's ruling.
I use Syncthing too, but only between my local machines. I don't use it for cloud backup because I've never found 2 TB of cloud storage as cheap as Dropbox. If anybody knows of such a vendor I'd love to hear about it.

Partially true, there was the protestant "Fürstentümer", but alot of places remained catholic and kept all the stuff. It was during Napoleons conquest of europe, that secularism as described above touched all places.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_mediatisation

It was basically the french revolutionary ideals spread to half of europe during a interim phase of french expansionism. And they were welcomed as liberators by man peasants, and the french idea of the nation, with the nobles done away wa quite attractive. In those times, lots of the old stuff was thrown out with the "old elites".

Im sorry european history is so confusing. Basically it all happens, over and over again, for different reasons, but the "bilderstürmerei" is such a old tradition, that some anticipating it, just painted over the old stuff with white chalk paint, preserving it below. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iconoclasm

Personally, this is literally the first time I've thought of Citibank in connection with Citibike in years. I think there might be a ceiling on the brand-awareness benefits of these roaming billboards.
Ask HN: Consultants, how do you manage client’s tech?
Hello there! I’m curious to know how to do manage your clients technology after deployment?

I’m thinking the case of a local garage disposal client that has no knowledge nor interest in hiring things by themselves and are happy to pay for the peace of mind, or a coffee shop in a similar position running a drip e-mail marketing or adwords.

Do you have them open their own accounts and you deploy to their accounts? So you charge a premium and host and manage things yourself? What kind of access/self service do you provide?

Thanks!
Hey, thanks for this. I didn't know that it existed and it gets around the limits for the maximum number of devices with the official client without a paid plan. I had whatever the max number of sync'd devices + 1 before they limited the device count. It wasn't a big deal because the last device was infrequently used, but it was annoying that the terms changed.
Ohh poor Meta, 10% cry me a river.
In US you can go to jail for being black or not following police officers orders or responding to them in a way they do not like, or talking to them, or taking pictures of them.

And they can shoot you.

Just like any authoritarian police state.

EDIT: freedom of speech is not related only to offending the president or saying good things about Hitler, it also mean I can talk and eventually argue with a police officer in EU without worrying that they will arrest me or shoot me. It means I can take a picture of a firemen's truck without the camera being seized by the police (it happened to me in Florida) and no way of talking to them that there's no need to abuse of their power, you can actually delete photos from cameras.

etc etc

authoritarianism and control works best when it's not in the law, but in the people habits.

We know that spam plagues email due to resistance to paid delivery. The only path forward for social networks is some sort of paid tier or ability to 'slash' participants that have staked something of value. We know that the general populace refuses to pay for message delivery, so I am not too optimistic we could prevent what you descried. LLMs may have effectively nerfed any value free agents could derive from social platforms. The risk is that some sort of positive reinforcement feedback loop occurs where the bots start interacting with each other, radicalization and derailment is also a possibility.

Yeah, when I see facts that cause me cognitive dissonance, I also pull reasons to disregard them out of thin air as well.
Most rotary encoders are programmed to have "acceleration", so it's not quite that simple. And the amount you need to turn it may vary nonlinearly based on the volume and ambient conditions (sound perception is complex!).

I'll defend Lucas til I die. His expanded universe is why I read so many books as a kid, and the huge number of star wars videogames in the 90s/2000s allowed game designers to tinker with different gameplay ideas with the star wars fans as a safety net. The phantom menace movie had a lot of flaws, yes, but without it we wouldnt have the podracing videogames. disney, comparitively, has released... what, two star wars videogames in 7 years?
Isn't that why only Taiwan has them?

Because they have vastly more incentive to have them made on the island, then anyone else would have on their territory.

And the Taiwanese employees have more external motivation then anyone could feasibly have in the U.S. or Europe.

To me it was a lot that it was so wordy and had weird syntax. Semicolon as a separator instead of "end of this line or statement" felt just insane to someone who just had understood (not really, even) how an assembler worked.

I think if it had more C like syntax and was sold as "C, but hardly any footguns", I would have liked it much better. I don't even know what was Pascal and what was Borland stuff, but I remember that I was reluctantly very impressed with its "module" system or whatever it had instead of .obj and .h files.
This was a very balanced take.

But I don't understand why people make such a fuss about some cities losing prominence and eventually crumbling from a previous period of wealth. This happens as history and technology progress.

I don't see how wealth is lost when it is just being redistributed. The workers didn't disappeared, they are just living elsewhere, bringing business opportunities and improving across many different places. Perhaps it will be healthier for the economy as a whole than having only a handful of cities as beacons of investment.
No, not really though. Phones are not necessary for survival but food made more available and cheap is necessary.
> In general, I'd observe that there's been much more of a reset to pre-pandemic norms than many anticipated.

I haven't traveled well enough recently to agree or disagree, but this matches my reading, so I'll take your argument.

> But SF could well end up being something of an anomaly--which would be especially bad news for SF given it may not be a broad-based crisis that the government at the national (or maybe even state) level is going to be especially concerned about.

Yeah... That's why I think we're somewhere between Theories 3 and 4. I was really hoping that the city supervisors would see that and start shifting SF's office core to be a more desirable and exciting place by reducing the barriers to entry for new brick and mortar businesses. Think more streets shut to cars, more bike only roads, massively more efficient and cheaper stall and cart permitting along with expanded areas of operation. Roll this together and you could essentially crawl the existing temporary street markets around the Ferry Building into the urban core. This would also provide an avenue for businesses to start and grow to fill the empty retail in the buildings around them, much the same that food trucks have become a stepping stone to brick and mortar restaurants.
