I agree.

* vesting across 4 years, one year cliff: So the OP don't come here weeping next year because they got a moron that now has a big chunk of the company.

* Equal to all other founders: So the technical cofounder don't come here weeping next year because after building all the company was fired and only got a bag of peanuts.

@OP: Some additional questions: Do you have clients? Do you have a working prototype? What happened to the person that build it? Is the new cofounder going to get salary? Do the other cofounder get salary now? Are they full time cofounders or still have another job?
> Chrome is experiencing unprecedented competition

From where? 65% globally use Chrome (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers).

The only widespread competition is from Safari and FF, both of which have been around longer than it.
Thank you for these links. If nothing else, the UN document at least defines what it's talking about. It's 3rd tier, "processed food", is basically: watch out, they added oil, salt, or other preservatives. The same people worried about "processed foods" are adding their own oil to foods (rightly so, usually!). But when a factory does it, LOOK OUT!. I mean, yes: watch your salt intake if you eat a lot of canned foods. That's real advice.

It's not until you get to Tier 4 (ultra-processed foods) that you start to see anything legitimately concerning. And indeed if the advice everyone was parroting was "avoid ultra-processed foods as defined by the FAO", then I'd care a lot less about it. Even still, the FAO says that ingredients added to ultra-processed foods include:

> varieties of sugars (fructose, high-fructose corn syrup, ‘fruit juice concentrates’, invert sugar, maltodextrin, dextrose, lactose), modified oils (hydrogenated or interesterified oils) and sources of protein (hydrolysed proteins, soya protein isolate, gluten, casein, whey protein, and ‘mechanically separated meat’).

Avoid sugars and foods with high glycemic indices. Absolutely avoid high-fructose corn syrup. Avoid hydrogenated fats; there is clear evidence they are harmful. Those sources of protein? Health nuts add that stuff to their soy milk all the time! Details matter!

My point is that there are specific processing steps that affect specific foods. Advice on how to identify and avoid those foods is fine. But that's not what anyone is saying: they're saying "avoid processed foods" and "eat whole foods". Those terms are meaningless as they use them. It's non-advice. It's water-muddying bordering on misinformation.
>This (no offense to you, personally)

LOL. In your other reply I am a cunt, or an absolute cunt. I do have a preference as I noted in my reply.

I agree that MaxwellHill acting as a mod for so long is really disgusting. The other guy that ended up getting his 15 minutes of fame before it all led to the banning of his favorite subs of which I think he was a mod is violentacrez. The guy was straight up pushing porn, racism, etc [0] as a mod. Reddit in those days was a genuine cesspool where users had to carefully read comments to know whether the post they were about to click linked to something enlightening or to some disgusting shit posted by an asshole as payback to someone else who shitposted another disgusting link with a catchy title.

>Aaron was not going after papers, he was going to expose some people.

This would not be surprising to me. He was principled and others he encountered were not. Do you have any good stories to back up this part of your post?
> I would expect the if there were demand for the higher quality devs then we would see them skewing the distribution locally (like on Glassdoor).

Glassdoor or salary surveys aren't the most reliable source of information for outliers. There's a proportion of devs that are flying completely under the radar and who are completely invisible to most local companies, even if they are in the same "local market" [0]. Because they are extremely valuable, they don't interview a lot and tend to hop between companies where they know people (or get fast tracked internally). When hiring is red hot, they might completely disappear from the hiring pool by junior year.

I'm going to go out on a limb here - when teachers don't get the support they need, and parents are more interested in babysitting (and/or a high GPA) than having their child learn the material...

Isn't this the most reasonable solution schools can implement?

I mean, it's not ideal. Not at all. But the incentives and support to do otherwise are not there.

Oh, and more controversially, we can't lay parents' attitude and child rearing directly at the hands of the baby boomer generation. The parents of current school-aged children were largely born after the 1980's now.

Yes, people born '40 to '80 are shaping school budgets and curriculum. But they are not shaping how children or their parents behave.
I said I differ with him; I don't think communism solves any problems but creates a lot of misery, this is proven historically. If he wants to promote it that's his right though, at least it is in this country.

Has anyone used a RockBLOCK? They seemed to be the cheapest way to send SMS via the iridium network. I wonder how long until we see something similar for starlink's network.

This is an interesting take. Basically an authoritarian crackdown to shut down a nascent worker rebellion before it really takes off.
This paper, at least by my skimming, seems to describe Redshift's historic SERIALIZABLE ISOLATION level, but does not mention Redshift's newer SNAPSHOT ISOLATION capability.

https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2022/05/amazon-re...

For concurrency scalability, AWS now configures SNAPSHOT ISOLATION by default if you use Redshift Serverless but non-serverless still defaults to SERIALIZABLE ISOLATION.
If you automate it right, you never see these. Look at the *arr services that help a lot with that.
We actively evaluated Linen in launching our community. Although, we went with discourse as we are going for a forum type community platform but Linen certainly has fantastic potential.

One very minor friction point with Linen was, it needs to be a bit transparent about their pricing for business tier. I don't think "contact us" pricing strategy is the perfect fit Linen's target audience.
> Because that content isn't this content, and I want to see this content.

I see. So is this your thought process?

1) I want it

2) I can't have it my way

3) So I take it, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks

Is that fair, or no? I notice you offered some rationalizations for your behavior, but those doesn't really change the above calculus right? They are provided to justify it.
Oh yeah sorry I only designed it for desktop.
> fats vs proteins vs carbohydrates

There's a Stanford professor who did a study comparing low-carb vs. low-fat diets. The surprising result: both groups lost weight.

My take (speculative): both groups cut out a lot of processed food. It's the processed food that's making us fat.

No, that's not how it works. Dialing in a process is extremely difficult, expensive, and iterative, and a fab has to do a lot of dialing in to make a billion chips per year that each have a billion transistors which will do a billion calculations per second for a billion seconds with zero errors. Give or take a few orders of magnitude here or there. It's a long tail that has to be chopped off -- so long that the number of players capable of chopping it off has gone from three digits to 3.
In general, you should be running the EXPO profile: this "upclocks" your RAM. I use the term "upclock" instead of overclock because you aren't pushing your RAM past its manufacturer's limit, you are pushing it to that limit. The JEDEC profile (the opposite of EXPO) is extremely conservative and can significantly affect performance.

This effect is compounded with Ryzen because of Infinity Fabric, which is the interconnect between the chiplets in the CPU. IF is clocked to the same speed as your RAM - so at the 6000MT/s "sweet spot" the article mentions your IF and RAM bus are running at 3000MHz. Matching IF to RAM bus is so important that increasing the RAM bus clock above the IF clock will decrease performance (unless the RAM bus clock is a multiple of the IF clock).

I haven't done the comparison on my 7950x, but on my 3950x running the IF at 1800MHz (RAM at 3600MT/s) resulted in a 10%-30% uplift in performance (depending on the workload).

So with Ryzen, if should consider purchasing RAM that is matched to the IF clock. For Ryzen 7 that is 6000MT/s. If you purchased RAM above that, you should definitely decrease the clock to match IF (you can tighten RAM timing to take advantage of the more expensive chips that you purchased, if you have the patience to).

What am I doing? I am going to disable EXPO, but I will definitely be re-enabling once this has been resolved.

Aside: What is MT/s vs MHz? DDR stands for "double data rate", meaning the MHz that everyone uses to describe the speed of RAM is a misnomer. "6000MHz" RAM actually runs at 3000MHz (but does two transfers per clock cycle). So: Mega-Transfers per Second.
Why? What other realistic scenario do you see playing out here?
In my mind there is no question the merger of the US companies will go through.
They will either create some other entities to make this ruling work or simply make Activision games unavailable in the UK.
This seems to be about direct low-bandwidth cell coverage, similar to the deal SpaceX and T-mobile have.

This is for allowing phones in remote areas to send SMS and eventually voice calls without needing a Starlink antenna.

It’s not really in the same ballpark as Starlink’s home/RV broadband services.
Sure thing! We support a two way sync between Slack and Discord so using Linen doesn't mean you have to migrate off of either. The end goal here is that we eventually build enough features that more and more people would prefer Linen in the long term.

We think that there is a better chat app out there that isn't built yet that handles things like:
1. A non chaotic notification system. Slack and Discord stresses me out. We want to introduce things like !mentions which sends you a push notification and @mention notifies you but doesn't interrupt you.
2. Better thread and content management. Things can get messy in Slack and that you can't find information. We give you ability to move threads and messages around to help organize that and we want to do more to help people find content.
3. More power user features: Slack is probably the most used app for a lot of us and I don't think it is optimized for individual productivity. We want to build something that is designed for our productivity. Something along the lines of Linear or Superhuman.
It's also based on surveys. People are so salty right now I have no doubt a lot of users responded with more passion than honesty to the surveys.
To be fair there is a grain of truth to the joke. E.g. Cayley’s theorem is sort of like that — once you get it, it feels like it barely qualifies as a theorem, it’s just a natural consequence of the definitions involved.
That's something I hadn't heard about. Is there any particular reason for this?
This. Most of the value of the company is to be created in the future, and you'll likely pivot (based on statistics, your specific idea may turn out to be spot on).
All these "efforts" are simply going to make the gap between rich and poor much wider. The richer kids will go to private school that won't have these backwards policies, and the poor people will go to public school and graduate uneducated. This is the result of dogmatic, racist far-left policies that don't actually care about the children but want to push an agenda with fake accomplishments like "all these kids graduated!" when in fact they graduate uneducated.
I think you might have them confused yourself. First result from google: "Saturated fats (including a type called trans fat) tend to stay solid and can cause fatty deposits in blood vessels, leading to atherosclerosis ("hardening of the arteries"). By contrast, unsaturated fats stay liquid at room temperature and are less likely to clog your arteries."

Here's the list of hardware platforms that OpenBSD supports:

https://www.openbsd.org/plat.html

Note that when they say support, they mean that it's fully supported and actually works well, including that OpenBSD is fully self-hosting on that platform (read: "oops, the compiler OOMs on 32-bit" is a no-go).

Now, here's the list of targets that rust supports:

https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/rustc/platform-support.html

Notice that all the OpenBSD targets are tier 3, and it's a strict subset of OpenBSD's platoforms. Even if we ignore everything else - a questionable choice - rust is unsuitable for writing core parts of OpenBSD because it can't actually build for all the systems that OpenBSD supports.
> This actually happens all the times in antitrust cases. Almost always the plaintiff argues for a very narrow market and the defendant argues for a very wide market. Then the judge has to come in and look at actual consumer behavior to decide what the relevant market actually is.

That's not the issue. The issue is that the judge invented a market that nobody considered to be a market before the trial. The judge didn't refer to any other market analysis or economic literature but simply pulled "digital mobile gaming transactions" out of her ass.

> The way your original comment was phrased implied the problem was with having 93% market share in the first place. I was simply pointing out that's not illegal unless it was obtained or maintained through anticompetitive means.

Yes and no. Building is great. I actually think that code is disposable, but products are not, at least within a healthy delta T. Code review, refactoring and the eventual full re-write is one of the most satisfying activities IMHO.

However, software suffers from badly managed customization, hard-coding, due to pressure and functionality that may not be necessarily good to all users in the system - that's what I'm referring to. =)

Performance Excuses Debunked [video]
Can you actually point to the data that says Millennial and Gen Z teachers have worse interpersonal skills than those of previous generations? Let alone point to data that says on aggregate Millennials and Gen Z workers have bad interpersonal skills? From the teachers I have come across within these 2 generations, they seem to be incredibly intelligent and personable.

You saying that good teachers with robust interpersonal skills are expensive and rare just shows that you haven't stepped into a school recently, or haven't conversed with a teacher for more than 20 seconds.
> he's just going for internet brownie points. It's just an attempt to squeeze a bit more personal benefit out of your (now-ended) employment.

So, many researcher types (and not only them, but also including many of us) are motivated by — find it personally rewarding at a psychological level — to share their thoughts in a dialog with a community. They just find this to be an enjoyable thing to do that makes them feel like they are a valuable member of society contributing to a general collaborative practice of knowledge-creation.

I hope it doesn't feel like I'm explaining the obvious; but it occurs to me that to ask the question the way you did, this is probably _not_ a motivation you have, not something you find personally rewarding. Which is fine, we all are driven by different things.

But I don't think it's quite the same thing as "internet brownie points" -- while if you are especially good at it, you will gain respect and admiration, which you will probably appreciate it -- you aren't thinking "if I share my insight gained working at Google, then maybe more people will think I'm cool," you're just thinking that it's a natural urge to share your insight and get feedback on it, because that itself is something enjoyable and gives you a sense of purpose.

Which is to say, i don't think it's exactly a motivation for "personal benefit" either, except in the sense that doing things you enjoy and find rewarding are a "personal benefit", that having a sense of purpose is a "personal benefit", sure.

I'm aware that not everyone works this way. I'm aware that some people on HN seem to be motivated primarily by maximizing income, for instance. That, or some other orientation, may lead to thinking that one should never share anything at all publicly about one's job, because it can only hurt and never help whatever one's goals are (maximizing income or what have you).

(Although... here you are commenting on HN; why? For internet brownie points?)

But that is not generally how academic/researcher types are oriented.

I think it's a sad thing if it becomes commonplace to think that there's something _wrong_ with people who find purpose and meaning in sharing their insights in dialog with a community.
“We've seen that pace of innovation matters and if your goal is to maximize the pace of innovation, you want that fast response even if it means overshooting somewhat whenever there's a step change.”

Does the pace of innovation really matter as much as you think? Or is it possible execution on the business side can matter more?

Also, it has been proven that adding more software developers can actually slow down a project. Increased hiring, therefore, does not necessarily correlate with faster innovation.
I agree it's not his problem, but he's generally been supportive of Canada and what we have to put up with so it's shitty to see him get into business with the poster child for what's wrong with the Canadaian business and consumer environment. Maybe it would be better to say I'm disappointed.
Building the Pocket CO2 Project
This is very much the case, the US is quickly becoming a playground for the wealthy who can pay to put their kids through private school, and skilled workers from abroad who didn't have to suffer through the American educational system. The only essential difference between education in a place like the Japan and the US is the level of funding--their school system is based off of America's, and yet their teachers are competent, their students often score far higher on standardized tests. I suppose I learned something in HS, but I was an absolutely shit student and my district did what they could for me but in the end it was my own drive to succeed, after graduating, that led me to becoming a top student at college and transferring to a very respectable university.

The whole system is fucked up, and while I might be one single individual who "pulled myself up by my bootstraps," there are perhaps hundreds of thousands, if not millions of young students just like me who either dropped out of highschool or barely finished and couldn't cut it at college and ended up doing unskilled labor. They suffer with no chance for a better life, no shot at a more comprehensive education, and no consciousness of their labor conditions such that they never even think about trying to fundamentally alter the system that has placed them in such an awful social position. I am not a success story, I am the exception that proves the rule.
I already referenced which rules you're breaking, though perhaps I didn't do so clearly enough. Here's the list in a more explicit form: you're breaking the rule against flamebait ("Eschew flamebait. Avoid generic tangents."), the rule against fulmination ("Please don't fulminate."), the rule against snark ("Don't be snarky."), and probably others (such as the rules against name-calling and ideological battle) as well.

If you want to make a case for yourself as a principled poster of dissident views, you need a better foundation to stand on than the GP comment and the other ones I linked to, which are just typical flamebait of the sort we're trying to avoid here. If you keep posting like that, we're going to have to ban you, not because we/I have anything against you or your views in the slightest, just because we're trying to have an internet forum that doesn't burn itself to a crisp. Scorched earth is uninteresting.
I think the parent comment was suggesting that they allow more concurrent streams for additional money. ie: $4/month per additional concurrent user, now you have 10 friends on it for $56/month.
Vendors are putting out updated BIOS that limit voltage going to the chips. Based on internet hearsay, even some of the non-OC chips were getting wrecked by stock BIOS overvolting enough. The real concern is with the X3D chips which are particularly sensitive to voltage and not particularly meant to be overclocked.

I think you're fine as long as you flash an updated BIOS put out by your MB manufacturer.
Can someone help me understand something about these "roadmaps", the roadmaps that go out 5+ years and define the path of transistor shrinkage?

What I don't understand is... what's preventing a chip fab from leapfrogging a transistor size? Why must there be a gradual process, planned year by year?

If one manufacturer has even a modest lead, can they use this lead to invest in two generations down the line, to keep their lead cemented?

Does the technology that supports X nm transistors become an input to building X-1 nm transistors? Or is each new generation like starting all over again?
My thought exactly, did they lose _sessions_ or _customers_ here?
> Highly processed or ultra-processed food is absolutely a meaningful term.

And yet nobody said "avoid ultra-processed food as defined by NOVA". They said "avoid processed foods" and "eat whole foods". It's extremely generous to assume everyone reading the former translates that in their head to "avoid ultra-processed food as defined by NOVA". And the latter is meaningless.

Even if that is what they really mean, that's really surface-level advice. There are foods in Tier 4 that are just fine. There are foods in Tier 4 that are more nutritious than "whole foods" are. Note that if you add whey protein to your soy milk, you have just created an ultra-processed food!
