They know. A pretty basic part of any sort of management course I’ve ever encountered is getting to know everyone is expendable. It’s simply down to a matter of cost. What you do with that information, however, is very individual.

That being said, and this is me talking about something I don’t know too much about, but hasn’t part of the many Blizzard controversies been that their CEO himself is sort of what you describe as a bad apple?

Software has been cannibalising itself for 70 years, and yet look and behold - being a programmer is still one of the best paid jobs. I don't believe a simple 20-50% boost for intermediate users is going to change things much.
I feel it too, even if the suggestion is wrong it still trigger my brain to think "No, it should be like this." and then I write the thing. Rinse and repeat.
I recently came across a review of a Samsung Smart fridge made by a non tech influencer, some of the things that grabbed my attention were:

- The fridge had both front and back cameras

- It had a microphone

- It could play music, which maybe was important if you considered it for a glorified kitchen tablet

- It could install regular android apps

- It could sync photos and notes

- It was compatible with the Uber app, so I have to assume you could actually have payment info in there

I have never bought a nice fridge and I will go out of my way to avoid pointless smart, so it really came as a surprise to me, but the situation seems posible and probably will happen to someone at some point
Show HN: LaunchDarkly Remover
Launchdarkly became extremely expensive for no good reason, but the code proliferated through our codebase and it became hard to remove. When GPT4 came out, we decided to get out of it once and for all, and built this tool to help us. Putting it here for free in case anyone else wants to go down this journey.

Used distcc back in mid-2000s to crosscompile NetBSD kernel/userland for a TS-7200 SBC ARM device. Back then those devices didn't have much processing power, would have taken days otherwise.
Problem is this product is worth like $30 in total.
I’d love to see software escrow for companies like this - something as simple as “if we stop making the software or go bankrupt or otherwise make it unable to be used, we have the source code and friends escrowed with a company that will then release it under the AGPL.”

This is what happens when you have no loyalty to staff. If they had treated workers like humans people would stay and long term employees are less likely to steal because they count on their job. The average length of employment is a month.. no surprise

Except for a few "dress" watches I've switched all others to nato-style. One of his arguments is it's "easier". I don't know, nato-style is pretty much idiot proof.

I do have a "pin" tool which makes it easy, but I'd rather buy a simple tool then buy into an expensive closed ecosystem.
> The main reason is that if grid is down, workers need to work on it safely and so they need it de-energized, not some random solar installation trying to feed power into it.

I’m sure this has motivated someone who makes rules, but I once had occasion to ask some actual line workers replacing equipment serving me, and they laughed. They said that they always assumed the lines were hot at both ends, and if they needed a line to be de-energized for safety, they would deliberately short it out. A pesky little residential inverter was not in the slightest bit concerning to them, anti-islanding or no.

I do believe that closing a switch between the grid and a small residential island could be unpleasant for the island or maybe even for the switch. And closing a large switch connecting an entire neighborhood that somehow formed a functional island and connecting it to the grid without synchronization might genuinely go poorly.

But mostly I think the most important current reason for anti-islanding is that a small residential or light commercial inverter is unlikely to have anywhere near the capacity to power an entire secondary circuit, nor does its owner want it to.
That's the simplified question that's the basis for Deontological ethics. Further, there are other philosophies concerning ethics that help to flesh out the impossibility that that creates in modern life.
Games? Or other software?
Well, in my country technical interop seems prime over almost anything (even above DRM legal protection, was explicit in the law), I hope reverse-engineering is still kind of a basic right here and software patent are supposely still illegal.

But it has been a while I have been unattentive, and political lobbying to pass toxic laws against basic digital freedom tend to go unoticed.

What I am stating is my opinion on how things should be, not what they actually are.
I wore the same Timex Triathlon for about 16 years. I replaced the watch band and the battery numerous times. Eventually the plastic button (the main one in the bottom left) wore out and it lost its water resistance and I finally switched watches. But to switch watches due to the replaceable parts (battery, watch band) seems unnecessary and wasteful.
Typical, irrelevant "Apple" response.

Past research has shown that iPhone users are more likely to upgrade than Android --- often whenever a newer model comes out.

Vista AI | Full Stack Developer | Hybrid in Palo Alto, but also open to remote (US) | Full Time

I am a ML engineer at Vista AI, helping out in the recruiting process.

Vista AI is a venture backed company dedicated to making advanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques more accessible to patients. Our first clinically approved (510K cleared) product, Heart Vista, is dedicated to automate the process of acquiring cardiac MR images, which have historically only been accessible to patients at advanced facilities such as Stanford. Using machine vision, we automatically recognize, plan, and acquire the standard cardiac MRI planes, which often requires a highly experienced technologist to accomplish.

We are looking to build on this initial success by hiring a Full Stack Engineer who has good front end and backend experience to help build internal annotation tools and manage our clinical imaging data. A successful candidate should have experience in Node.JS, Vue.JS (or other modern Javascript frontend), solid DevOps skills (Docker, kubernetes, cloud infrastructure, SSL, oauth/keycloak), and good understanding of modern databases (Postgres/Redis).

Prior experience in medical imaging or other healthcare setting is highly desired!

To apply, please see the following link or send a Resume to apply@vista.ai.

True, but this is just nitpicking over something that's not really the point being made. The argument behind the OP still stands... the decisions being made by the company aren't ultimately being made by gamers or gamedevs (the workers who make the product / customers who use the product). So everything just turns to shit from a product standpoint...

It's not a solution to drive adoption, but if fatigue due to the weight is an issue for today, one solution is to add more weight on the other side of your head.

I bought some head-mounted night vision gear a couple of years ago, and found that even a single PVS-14 (easily <1/2 the weight of a Quest 2) mounted in front of your eye is heavy enough to cause neck strain after an hour or two, especially if you're moving around a lot. A properly fitted helmet with a chin strap helped keep it in place, but the neck fatigue remained. I added a small sandbag on the back of my helmet to offset the weight of the optic, and the problem was almost entirely resolved.

With my Quest 2, I replaced the OEM strap with a "comfort head strap" From KIWI design. I then found a USB-C power bank that weighs about the same as the Quest headset, and 3D printed a holder for it to attach to the hard plastic frame of the head strap in the middle of the back. Not only has that resolved my neck fatigue issues, but the battery pack means that I can use the Quest 2 all day if I wanted without having to recharge, and without being wired to an electrical outlet.
This. Currently, the only markets I see for AR/VR are hardcore games and certain niche applications. I don't see widespread mainstream adoption in its current form factor.

>Why would only software developers work-to-rule? This would be called simple sabotage.

Probably they won't - as a profession it completely lacks class consciousness, as underscored so neatly by this comment of yours.

The resultant talent oversupply caused by people chasing middle class wages via bootcamps and an overwhelming lack of solidarity will likely end up with the profession being paid somewhere between "starving physics PhD" and "plumber" for most roles.

Striking will probably be tried a few times but, judging by how many software systems ive seen tick over for months with 0 developers, it's likely to fall flat on its face.

The Mystery of Consciousness and Free Will
For balance updates the problem is that if balance swings too wildly out of whack, it effectively removes content from the game as it gets too underpowered. Especially in a team game like Overwatch, where peer pressure and sometimes outright harrassment will be deployed by your team mates if you pick an underpowered, or perceived to be underpowered, option
Betteridge's law of headlines strikes again.

Easier to build something new than to tack on more cruft to the broken usenet model. At this point usenet has little remaining use other than being a low-profile warez distribution channel. It was great in the late 80s and early 90s but does not scale well as a communications medium and we already know better ways to manage the distributed data sharing layer.
For programming CPUs that cost less then 1$. Like sensors. For low power usage. Or small form factor.
> There are no such thing as "AI bros", AI training costs millions of dollars

It is early days, in contrast with minting digital gold using software here the costs will come down. In any case not every "AI" model and application needs to pass Turing-test levels of language sophistry.

While you are right that (large) corporate interests are (and will be) the main actors here, I would not underestimate "noise traders" and other useful fools. With AI mania reaching apoplectic levels there is a wide population of actors that want to somehow get into the game.

The availability of open source AI models is an enabler in this respect, which may explain also the "leakage". Incidentally this issue is something the open source community needs to internalize and have a very clear position about.
Friendships outlast romantic relationships on a consistent basis. Ask anyone who has ever gone through a break up. I'd also consider that there is an entire universe of romantic relationships between "life partner" and "casual sex", and it's between those two extremes that most relationships exist.
The next step - that I'm frankly surprised is taking this long - is "light field" video.

Instead of being a fixed tripod, you can be in the space. You can move a foot or two in every direction, and you can rotate your head without overlapping each eye's perspective.

The song was a pretty underground one until a large hollywood movie featured it and then with its association to a culture and further featurings in movies its now 'pop' i guess but it just feels a bit wrong to call it that.
I'm actually not curious about what Google's guides say, and don't accept them as technical leaders.

Having said that: It's not really unlike C++, since you have it in for loops:

for (int x = 0; x < n; x++) { do_stuff(); }

which is like

{
int x;
for (x = 0; x < n; x++) { do_stuff(); }
}

anyway, I wouldn't mind the syntactic sugar of "with X=Y do Z" or "let X=Y in Z"
Perhaps but I think it is quite unlikely the Apple headset is going to be anywhere close to $499. $1499 is more likely. Knowing Apple it will be higher than my guesstimate but we will know soon enough I guess.

As for this new Meta Quest headset. There is nothing Meta make I would touch with a 10 foot pole for personal use. I don't use Facebook or Instagram or WhatsApp and I don't plan to change that anytime soon.

Hell I have all of Meta's known domains blocked at both the network and browser level so I don't stumble onto something.

Meta, to me, is toxic.
I’ve not seen the research but is suspect the average cancelled subscription goes far beyond “when it was no longer worthwhile” before it is cancelled.

From a cursory read, they don't reveal the productivity difference between high skilled and low skilled workers (https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w31161/w311... guessing this is confidential info.

My guess though is that high skilled workers remain far more productive than AI-augmented low skilled workers.
It's interesting how many different opinions there are about how this works. You say one thing, and in the replys there are several different views of how this works.

Do the decision makers have a similar diversity of opinion on how this works?

> I guess I could see that if they think they're leading demand by a fair ways

It's marginal - there is no substantial regime change from 'leading demand' to not in terms of the incentives applied to building. If you impose a cost, builders will build less - even if they are already behind on demand. I guess you are saying that they will easily fill the units because demand is ahead so the vacancy tax doesn't matter, but it still matters here because the buyers (who might want to become landlords) will price lower if they know there is a vacancy tax in anticipation of future vacancies.

> if my experience in LA is any indication, new high profile development skews "luxury" and it's not hard to find examples of situations where new units come onto the market at rents over a standard deviation about market average

Most new units come above market average. This is not a new trend, this was also true of the market average rates for old housing stock when it was new. It turns out that newer stock is more expensive, you have cause & effect backwards.

Moreover, even if it were true that developers are only building permanent luxury/new stock, that would still be key to shifting the price down because the people inhabiting those luxury units would have otherwise been using their substantial bidding power to spend on other, less luxury homes.

Finally, I promise you that none of the individual units being built by apartment developers are more luxury than owning your own SFH in San Francisco, which is worth probably upwards of $1.5-2 million. Many, many more of those homes sit empty as second homes than units in apartment buildings.

I really don't think whatever terrible experience your employer straps you into for training will have much bearing on the consumer UX of these headsets.
Writing Win32 programs in assembly was a niche in the late-90s. This post inspired me to do some googling for a project I was familiar with back then and discovered the author has brought it back to life at https://github.com/ThomasJaeger/VisualMASM.
If your fingernail is the right size and you are willing to risk breaking it and impaling your fingertip and cracking the body of your watch with the leverage and the band isn't jammed to complicate the procedure, you can often make it work without tools.

I think it's very interesting to just compare it to a wii ad.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTsF_v66HhI

I think it comes off as a lot more immersive. Look at the woman bowling. The ad really makes it feel like she is bowling and throwing the ball that is 1:1 with the screen (more than the actual game tbh). Compare it to the images of the guy jerking his arms around the one minute mark. The bit of the japanese dudes just stepping back and helping themselves to lemonade in t he background is funny and smart as hell.

We don't see what the VR guy is doing. He is alone while doing it. The content they do show is clearly fake, like the dnd.

High fidelity motion tracking has a lot of disadvantages tbh. Like wii bowling. You can't waggle the ball in front of you. It more or less just detects your swing. It does feel your toss is... "real" because if you don't do it the intended way it just doesn't work and if you do it right, it works great. See the number of VR games that try to implement awful "throwing" mechanics where it's just you releasing an attachment to the ball and letting the physics do the rest. Hard problem.
