> The last thing that bugs me is peoples claims the new mods (if chosen by reddit employees) wont be as high quality as the previous ones. No one has ever proven the current moderation teams are any good.

In fact it is well known that current Reddit moderators are often very bad and contribute to the worst parts of Reddit culture. It has been discussed here, and on Reddit, how big of a problem current moderator practices are. Yet due to this protest we seem to have developed a collective amnesia and now we're all pretending that the current set of moderators are the heroes of the Reddit story. Baffling. Most of Reddit would be improved by a large-scale shake-up of moderators.

I agree this is why they are doing it, but they cant be blind to how bad their app is in comparison to what their power users are using? Is an exodus worth it if you keep 25% of the people in the app and the remainder move on? I think you can get metrics via the api, maybe not apples to apples but it can be addressed in the future.

Right now they are sticking their head in the sand, middle finger in the air and daring people to leave. Poor community relations and messaging for a community based website.

They made their bed by accepting VC money. There is more than one way to skin a cat and I think they choose poorly.
>Then you have those types who put their machine into hibernate/sleep with 100+ Chrome tabs open and never do a full boot ritual.

I would never suspend to RAM or disk, far too error-prone in my experience. (Plus serializing out 128GiB of RAM is not great.) I just leave my machine running "all the time." My most recently retired disks (WD Black 6TB) have 309 power cycles with ~57,382 power-on hours. Seems like that works out to rebooting a little less than once per week. That tracks: I usually do kernel updates on the weekend, just in case the system doesn't want to reboot unattended.
It's a tool for intimidating workers. Non-competes may make a worker afraid to leave a job for fear of being unable to work in their industry. It may also make a worker afraid to take specific positions for fear of retaliation by a former employer.

The key is, non-competes can accomplish these things even if they're not legally defensible. Your average worker doesn't have the legal knowledge to know if a given non-compete is actually likely to hold up, and will often assume that they signed a legally valid contract. Most workers can't afford to go to court, so the threat of a lawsuit can be used to bully them into submission.
Revolutionizing global consciousness sounds more like a religion or something, but whether it was a, uh, niche religion or a real estate company, surely neither of those things is tech.
In its current form, sure I agree. But to me thinking that we will just see a future of miniaturized TVs is like thinking we would just keep making faster horses instead of shifting the paradigm. As the smartphone was the nexus for multiple technologies, so too are AR headsets. They are getting smaller and lighter and will become less obtrusive and with more intuitive user interfaces and interaction modalities, just as has been done with computers taking their myriad forms. I'd much prefer a private, hands free mode of interacting with a computer in public, not to mention the AR potential. Misplaced your keys? Well, they were last seen by your headset on your desk ten minutes ago.
Why is that something to note?
All of your labor should be free also.

What do you mean you want a six figure salary? How incredibly greedy of you.

It's fair to pay you only what you need to survive.
I’m always irritated by the theory of the motivation of closing API access being LLMs.

To forbid LLMs simply could be a legal paragraph in Reddit’s API terms of service. Good actors would abide, bad actors would still crawl and scrape the HTML. Practically the same situation with the closed API from July forward, but without the drama.

Killing 3rd-party clients seems the far more likely motivation.

Because nobody realizes that these are taxes; most customers just look at the bottom line, then scan up to see all the nickle-and-dime bullshit Comcast is charging them, and municipalities know this and slip into it. It's a dark pattern.
In finance though, don’t people usually get a cushy 6 month paid “gardening leave” when they switch? So I’m not sure how much non-competes help if employees are already being offered contracts and $$$ to not compete. This law won’t make “gardening leave” any cushier?

Because I moved just before things started to go down hill. They were the cheapest, people seemed reasonably happy with their services and they had the features I wanted.

My problem was that not only did Google changed my price from free to way to expensive, but my DNS provider closed at the same time, so I needed to migrate both things at the same time. Pretty annoying.
It is difficult! At every point of sale, they need a system that generates a price list for arbitrary zip codes. It's not insurmountable, obviously, but it's a thing they're being asked to build, that they shouldn't have to build at all, because these fees are bullshit.
What is hard about things like this is it ultimately boils down to self control.

Sure, by creating the friction tunnel, you are less likely to get distracted online, which makes self control easier.

But the thing is we are smart and computers are fast; meaning most software-based friction tunnels are quick to undo.

I did something similar to what the OP described by solely using the Mullvad Browser, which is in permanent incognito mode.

The moment this introduced friction in some nuanced way that I had not foreseen, I just switched back to my main browser as I could not think of a way to handle this edge case.

For me at least I think the friction tunnel needs to be inherently physical. Using an old computer (with a new one not in the same room) is a much better friction tunnel than changing your browser.
Hiring in the open market is unlikely to get you good PMs. It's too easy to hire an imposter, who doesn't or can't understand the problem and solution domains. The best talent pool would be engineers at your company who are looking to transition.

The best product managers are engineers who care about what customers think, and have enough soft skills to talk to them. Even selecting from that pool, it's likely they will add less value as a PM vs as an engineer. In the case of hiring internally, at least they can fallback to being an engineer. Compare that to an imposter from the open market with poor domain knowledge, and no technical skills.

Never mind the issue of tech worker poaching and whatever secret agreements the companies made, the real issue here is Ballmer’s terrifying spasm of violence. He ought to have been removed from the building and barred from the property, and his employment terminated. That type of outburst is never ok because it forces everyone to wonder at what point he might assault someone.

I don’t care how many billions of dollars are at stake, none of it is worth getting hurt over, and throwing chairs around demonstrates that he has lost that perspective.
why is the company allowing someone to sit idly on the app and jack up prices? they're able to determine surge pricing based on demand, surely they can just use that exact same algorithm to determine the number of workers they need and will allow to deliver orders?

simple checks like "did this person do >X number of deliveries in Y amount of time?" should let the company know who to "send home" the exact same as food service and retail currently works. the companies are not forced to allow anyone onto the app, just as businesses are not forced to allow any employee who shows up unscheduled to sit around and collect an hourly wage.
Those two things are not mutually exclusive. They can be the #1 host while also enforcing restrictions (which have exceptions as per https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx...)

A 5 year old link with a vague "confirmation" that it's still happening is not exactly damning evidence, either. They could have certainly considered themselves the #1 host until last year. A lot of things changed last year.

I run OpenBSD on most of my systems. The OpenBSD development team collaborates using cvs instead of git because it fits their workflow well. If I wanted to collaborate with them, I'd use cvs too – and if I wanted to move them to git I'd do it after becoming a core contributor, not before. If I'm going to send bug reports & patches here and there, I'm going to do it in a way that makes it easy for Theo and team to review.

This is very much a Chesterton's fence topic, I think. Linux developers have settled on a workflow that works for them, and if you want to get time from the people who are doing the bulk of the work it's fair to expect you to work within their requests.

A lot of suffering exists in our society due to that belief you have regardless if it's correct or wrong and similar suffering exists in our society from beliefs formed based on knee-jerk feelings or personal biases. I agree that people have free will if we replace the term "free will" with "personal desire." However, that doesn't imply the personal desire could've been different because otherwise the person would be different as well. I've also encountered many people that remarkably don't believe in free will, so the premise you made is false.

Garden leave is just a (usually?) legal (or at least contractual) requirement associated with non-compete agreements in some jurisdictions. Unsurprisingly, it was originally a British term, although it meant something different.
Most of these companies are shovel sellers to the AI gold rush.

CommonJS ("node") resolution was always opt-in in Typescript. Typescript's "classic" resolution, built for AMD, was perfectly capable of working in the browser. Typescript's CommonJS resolution was always fine in Node for ESM when "type": "module". 4.7's new resolution modes/tweaks added support for "mixed-type" packages with plenty of non-.js file extensions, which again were a Node-specific thing, and "idempotent" browser ESM where Typescript does (nearly) no transformations other than type stripping, which is a nice-to-have but not entirely necessary to running in a browser. ("Classic" transformations that assumed ".js" file extensions worked just fine for the browser and work just fine for Node when "type": "module".)
Farmville is ancillary to Facebook as a whole. Those users might play Farmville but also read up on their feed or click through their friends' posts, thereby allowing Facebook the chance to show ads.

Apollo et al are different in that they are packaging up the entire experience wholesale, they are not ancillary. There is no way for Reddit the company to show ads through third party clients (the client could simply block ad posts if they wanted to).
Uhh... I really don't think you do know what a social contract is. A social contract is a temporary state of affairs, where both sides are benefitting from being able to implicitly hold the other side to it; where either side can freely breach it, but where this dissolves the social contract that held until that moment; and where dissolving the social contract will (obviously) cause the other side to rescind all benefits they were granting the other, and instead revert to whatever it perceives as the game-theoretic global optimum — usually involving local indefinite defection, to "make an example of" the party that violated the social contract.

A ceasefire during a battle is an example of a social contract. Neither side shoots until the other does. Once someone shoots, the other side responds with everything they have, to make an example of the side that shot first.

Not eating your coworkers' food in the office fridge is another example of a social contract. Once someone violates it, people either stop putting food in the fridge, or start petty games of bringing random leftovers dosed with ex-lax to work and leaving them in the fridge.

A social contract isn't "superseded by a legal contract"; a social contract is relied upon in preference to a legal contract. The legal system only applies when a given social contract is broken and dissolved by one party breaching it, thus leaving no recourse other than the underlying legal reality.

The social contract for Reddit, that did exist until it was breached, was "Reddit lets people consume its data for free; and in exchange, users act to curate and maintain and grow the data, rather than actively polluting/destroying/lessening the data." Now that that social contract is dissolved, users are doing everything they can to make Reddit a shithole.

What are you talking about? Languages are pretty explicitly designed to be statically- or dynamically-typed: e.g. take Python which relies a lot on having a dynamic typing discipline. Yes, you have Mypy and pytype, but those are pretty much different dialects.

Also, what reputable sources are you even talking about? That is also such an unwarranted personal attack you've attached as well.
That sounds like it applies to a miniscule amount of workers, while many more workers are forced to sign non-competes but get no special treatment (or cash) from their employer for bearing that burden.
Uh, I think this should be a thing considering we have LLMs training other LLMs. so we end up with this BARF loop.

There is an actual interesting question here if BARF loops can create new synthetic knowledge, or if humans need to be the 'spark of novelty' in that loop to drive it to new knowledge.
> To be fair, it's already been torpedoed due to GDPR

Not really. I'm a deep learning researcher and my work has to be palatable to the GDPR. You can remove personally identifying information from training datasets with some effort (replacing faces with GAN-generated fake ones, ditto with license plates and telephone numbers, etc.) It's just another aspect of data cleaning and not that big a deal.
> All software is buggy on real hardware.

definitely not

"buggy" is a logical property of the program as expressed, not a physical property of the program as executed

a solar ray flipping a memory bit on the hardware executing an otherwise correct program does not make that program buggy

> There's an implicit "hope not to hit the ultra rare bad luck" on each line of code.

there definitely is not, at least in the context of the program as expressed

such a case of "bad luck" would violate the assumptions of the language model, and/or execution model, and/or hardware model, and/or etc., of the running program, in a way that would be likely undetectable and definitely un-fixable

it would be an invariant violation of the hardware/os/language model -- but a bug is a logic error

it is so important that programmers understand this distinction

fn f1(x int) -> int { return x }
fn f2(x int) -> int { if x==2 { panic } else { return x } }
fn f3(x int) -> int { if rand() < 1e-10 { panic } else { return x } }

f1 is correct, f2 is buggy, and f3 is buggy -- no matter if 1e-10 is 1e-10 or 1e-20 or 1e-30

> There is some competition between subreddits for attention

The existing sub-subreddits organically evolved from disputes between more primary subreddits about the type of content users wanted to see; e.g. r/atheism decides they don't want low-quality meme posts, so r/atheismmemes is created. If reddit were to simply remove the mods from thousands of subreddits, it could easily sour those communities.

It's great to apply "deliberate practice" "10,000 hours" and what else into domains that are strongly stable across time like mathematics, music, some foreign NATURAL language. You get to use the skill in which you invested so much of your time.

It sucks to apply even the least of effort into vaporware fashions like programming languages, tools and techniques. You don't even get to complete half of the 10,000 hours of effort to acquire the skill that the whole thing is already antiquated and thrown into the garbage can of history. You wasted a vast amount of time for next to nothing.
