I was shocked that an employee was claiming they haven’t changed the model since March, given that this date changes every few weeks. But I finally read the link it goes to, and apparently this date is just the frontend version. Which is a really weird thing to include as part of a disclaimer.

I wonder how many other people think this is the most recent model release date.
SEEKING WORK | local or REMOTE (within Africa)

Contract, part-time or volunteer

Location: Africa

Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where i can get the necessary permission to live and work.

Technologies: Linux, Fullstack, System Administration.

Résumé/CV: on request (software development, CTO, mentoring, training, fluent in English and German)

Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so i am looking to relocate to Africa.

While i could find a job elsewhere i believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location i am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.

I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and i am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.

I am willing to consider a volunteer position if a visa can be arranged.

Nonsense. Better than worrying about liability of the harm that happens, is reducing the amount of harm that happens. To argue otherwise is silly.

The kinds of mistakes described elsewhere in this thread have not been of the form "system mistakenly brakes my car and someone behind me rear-ends me because they were following too close". So your comments, while valid for that particular scenario, do not appear to be relevant to what other posters are concerned about.

I happened to be walking with a social scientist one day, when we were stopped on the city sidewalk by this super-charismatic woman who was soliciting charity donations.

Besides having one-in-a-million looks (speaking as a photographer), her expression, tone, and manner conveyed that she was genuinely happy (not overly earnest, nor fake, nor pushy, nor airheaded/high) to be representing some charity, and she instantly liked us, and thought we might want to hear about this charity. (I did manage to keep my money, but I had a lot of practice dodging those street teams.)

After we walked away, the social scientist (also a woman) said, matter-of-factly, "No one has ever said an unkind word to her." I could imagine that being literally true.

I've met a number of very charismatic people, but they usually seem to have some awareness of it. I'm thinking maybe one of the higher tiers of charisma effect might be when the person doesn't know (or doesn't seem to know) how charismatic they are. Maybe they give the impression of seeing the world and others through a more appealing lens, and people respond well to that.

> Subaru crosstrek 2018 - would brake for no reason, cars turning up ahead of me, etc.

Another anecdote - I have the exact same car and haven't had it do anything unexpected. It would really help if Subaru et. al. had ways to offer feedback back to them, because experiences like yours should be shared with them so they can understand what kind of corner cases some drivers are getting into.

> I also had the lane assist on the crosstrek almost cause an accident on the highway at speed. Roads here are inconsistent and it was violently jerking the wheel trying to stay between lines.

I've also not experienced this - the lane assist is just a nudge and if it's overpowering you you should take it to the dealership, this is not normal.

Gpt is starting to suck? I'll take the blame for this one. I've been submitting crazy prompts since the beginning in the hopes of confusing it!
There's two primary reasons for me:

* Convenience
* Tooling

It's more convenient to keep tabs open. With Tree Style Tabs on Firefox and Orion's vertical tabs I can retain the relationship. The browser generally keeps it cached so even if the site goes offline I can read what I need to. If I have a form partially entered, I can resume it. If the page has infinite scroll but doesn't update the URL, I can stay where I was. Some sites tie resources to a particular session so resuming from a bookmark won't get you to the resource anyway.

But, I can also find things faster if they're on a pile on my desk than I can if they're put away in a drawer so I'm sure it's different for everyone.

As for tooling, I think browsers just aren't very good at bookmark management. I find the sidebar for bookmarks borderline useless, but a tree of tabs in the same space is quite efficient for me. The bookmark manager isn't much better. We can use folders, but not really have the rich links the web was designed for. I often have both the HN discussion and article open with either a parent-child or sibling relationship in my vertical tabs. That's not easily replicated with bookmarks.

The other tooling issue is tab management isn't great. Chrome's shrinking tabs is terrible HCI; you can't read them and they become harder to click. Finding a tab can be frustrating. It's often easier to open a new tab to complete a task than go hunting for the one I want. Pinning tabs doesn't work great with multiple windows and seeing just the favicon isn't super helpful if you need to pin two pages from the same domain.

Between the tabs I keep open because that's how my brain works best and between tabs I get stuck with because browsers haven't provided better tooling, it's easy to grow into the hundreds and then periodically cull them.

I live in Berlin and I like the old gas lamps. Fortunately, the LED retrofits are very good at imitating the gas lights - I initially didn't expect city officials to care and then do such a good job. I sometimes hold my ear to a lamp post to listen for the typical hissing noise. It's become rare that I hear it, and if I do, it's a surprise.
Regulations that restrict people who have not caused actual harm do not, in general, reduce the amount of harm that happens. But they do work great as revenue sources for local governments (speeding laws are the most common example but not the only one), not to mention as excuses for manufacturers to charge higher prices and squeeze out more profit from consumers. They also reduce general respect for laws and regulations among the public: people start to view driving, for example, as a game to avoid being caught doing things that are technically illegal but which the vast majority of people do anyway (such as exceeding posted speed limits). Fostering that kind of mentality among the public arguably increases the amount of harm that happens.

Furthermore, government institutions, particularly in the post-COVID era, simply lack credibility when they make claims about some government mandate reducing harm. In this case, as I pointed out elsewhere in this thread, NHTSA's claims about harm reduction assume that these systems will always operate perfectly and will never cause any harm, only prevent it. Such an assumption is not credible.

In short, I do not share your faith in the ability of government regulators to actually reduce harm, on net. More generally, I do not share your faith in the ability of governments to actually act in the interest of all the people, instead of benefiting the governments themselves and particular special interests.
This is actually a really good summary of how projects should be estimated. A lot of people I know just focus on the core task or the minimum viable product, ignoring everything around it.

I especially find it frustrating that many PMs think that the instant a system goes into production, the project is finished and everyone should be putting tools down and walking away. In reality, the post-go-live support can take a surprising amount of time, but is rarely accounted for.

One particular customer, a telco, had PMs that started in the telephony space and were especially stuck in this mindset. Imagine digging a trench and laying down some fibre for a customer. The second the hole is filled and the fibre is lit up, the project is done. There is zero ongoing maintenance! Fibre doesn't need monthly patching, or regular replacement. It lasts decades. Sure, it might be cut by a backhoe, but that's break-fix, not project work.

Now picture the same mentality applied to general IT projects. Build it, mark the project as closed, and walk away. Never patch anything. Never upgrade. Never consolidate. Just leave things precisely as-built forever or until it breaks...

Show HN: JuxtaCode – native Git diff tool for macOS
I wanted to make a native Git diff tool that works "stand-alone" in the sense that you just need to point it at a repository and then you can select commits to compare and open files in a 3-way-merge tool.

I've been finding it useful to have one app I can quickly switch to for comparing branches and sorting out merge conflicts.
On the contrary, the clock management makes American football games more exciting, because you know if your team can just get one first down you will win. The tension heightens because you see the finish line.

But it does lead to unsatisfying situations where a person layer intentionally goes down instead of scoring because he doesn’t want to give the ball back to the other team.

I agree with your basketball complaint. The worst is that a team up 3 also has incentive to foul the losing team because they can only score 2 at the line.
Maybe I'm a little picky about naming, but I've always found it so confusing that "WordPress" is the self hosted open source project and "WordPress.com" is a project like Squarespace/Wix that uses WordPress. In addition to confusing, I even see it as somewhat misleading. It would be so much better if WordPress.com was called, I don't know, Spot. I think that for the branding of both projects it would be healthy.

The majority of people killed in crashes are impaired by alcohol or drugs or both. 1/6 of all fatalities are pedestrians, and another 1/6 are motorcycles, despite only being 1/10 of all registered vehicles.

There are tons of modes in this data. Assessing all crash fatalities as some sort of "general" problem you can target misses this fact.

The single greatest thing you could do to reduce fatalities is to eliminate drunk and impaired driving.
I expected to see that they were choosing to shed smaller, older buildings to consolidate and bring workers closer together. That's a common occurrence for businesses, especially since the cost of office rent is at a record low. Surprisingly, a lot of the buildings they're shedding - according to the article - are very nice and new, including the entire "tech corners" office complex in Sunnyvale, which is massive, and a very convenient location.

I want to be upfront. Here's the difficulty. (I say this as an employer.)

Let's say I'm looking for engineer #2 or #3 for my YC startup and I'll pay 95k for junior or 185k for senior.

Is posting 95-185k really that useful?

What happens when I offer someone 130k but they were expecting 185k?

And you can't just use years of experience alone to rank junior vs senior.

tl;dr If engineers were more fungible, I could post a precise number. But I don't think they are.
