I'm curious to hear what tools or techniques people here are using at work that they think makes a big difference in the developer experience.
Did you read the comments from the actual Apple subreddit community? It's pretty clear that they think the blackout is some bullshit power hungry mod thing that they are happy to see end.

You’re far less hedonistic than the target for this article I think. I’m sure there’s a balance, a sweet spot between investment returns and quality of life. Maybe you’ve stumbled upon it. But for me growing up working class poor this, if I could do it over again, I’d do this. I didn’t get married until 29 anyway so I’m not too far off from the timeline I proposed.
> Think of the hours saved — and, in theory, productivity gained — if you can simply tell your chatbot to clean up your inbox, change your system settings or connect to a printer.

I have a difficult time imagining myself trusting something as unpredictable as an LLM to perform any kind of "cleaning up" task on important data like my inbox. Perhaps future developments in utilizing language models in conjunction with less stochastic systems will make this an easier sell, but for now, I'm not seeing it.

Yeah no. I’ve read his tweets. Even if he has ambitious goals Elon’s an asshole at times.
Nice. Should help!
Part of me finds it hilarious that if Reddit just straight up closed its API saying they didn’t want to support it anymore Twitter-style and Spez just shut up, they would most likely be in a far better position right now.

I don’t understand why they felt the need to engage so much with app providers and be so childish about the whole thing. They just had to assume they were yielding the power they have over the platform and that’s how things were going to be from on now, no long explanation needed. They could still be communicating this way actually and it would sound much more honest and serious that what they are doing currently.

As of now the whole thing is a master class in how not to communicate.
Well, I guess what do you mean by feel? I've taken micro-dose amounts, 10-20ug, and have definitely realized I had taken something, but only if I really focused on it. It's certainly not the same as taking 50ug, but you can feel your body working a little differently. Maybe you have to get into amounts even smaller than that? Or maybe it's just placebo? I don't know, hard to say.

I do agree with the GP though, sometimes the thing you need is to just jump into a full on 100-150ug trip and hang out in it for the day. Let yourself regain some of that open state and change up the habitual patterns you may not know you're locked into over the course of the next days and weeks. I personally end up doing it about once a year, give or take, and it always ends up being a positive experience (if sometimes difficult).
>Most mods have an issue because they want to mod from their phones. There are mods like me who use desktop exclusively and don't care about third party apps in the slightest.

Same here. Not a mod, but have always used Reddit from the desktop (with the new UI turned off), so zero interest in third-party apps. It's one thing to do messaging or email while out and about, but why would I want to intentionally use a text-intensive system like Reddit through a small screen without a keyboard to type on?

I wonder if the API change will end the practice of mods sharing automated block lists (Context for others: If you post in a wrongthink subreddit, many other subreddits will preemptively ban you regardless of your actual activity in them, if any). If so, and if there are fewer handfuls of powermods that control dozens of subreddits, I'm all for the change.
Yeah, I've definitely seen odd things in Django ASGI. Had at least one instance where it looked like it leaked data between requests but couldn't get a clear enough reproduce. Switching back to WSGI worked fine though

The law needs to be changed so that loans can be unpaid with no penalties if there is no signed and notarized proof it was you.

That'll fix it real fast.
It can only give us an edge in the repetition case. And the Ellsberg paradox doesn't apply to the repetition case. Ellsberg doesn't say anything about people preferring the first urn in the repetition case. In fact, I see no evidence that they do.
The fable of the "The Scorpion and the Frog" comes to mind every time I consider the current reddit problems. It's simply the nature of the beast, we all knew this was coming at some point. A lot of reddit user seems to be under the misapprehension that reddit is a co-op.

I was part of a forum based community in ~2010 that constantly debated moving to reddit. It boiled down to "no one joins forums anymore vs we lose control". These events were not unpredictable.

Reddit wants users to use their app so they can accidently click on ads. Like most of the economy they've switched from prioritising growth to prioritising value.

Reddit will be fine. They will add moderation tools to their app. The mods who leave will be replaced.
The motherboard looks to be around US$800. The processors look to be (list) around US$1k for a 16/32 and run up to US$12k for a 96/192.
I’m sure you can, but at this point, I don’t see why Reddit won’t just strip you from moderation and install someone else.
Just curious, what are your elos and where'd you place him?
I think some of Musk's actions do make sense. Their staff and infrastructure costs were way out of control. They could have been reliably profitable every year just by cutting those costs. That's kind of insane.

The rest of his changes - stopping moderation and the API price changes are stupid.

Has Reddit cut staff? Seems like they're just copying Musk's mistakes.
> By some people calling this safe, it enables the nuclear proponents to leverage that to say there is no issue with the waste so it's fine to create more.

Unfortunately those who believe nuclear energy generation is necessary often refuse to acknowledge the very real risks and costs associated with it. The fact is that there is no panacea when it comes to energy generation. All known methods come with risks, rewards and downside. It is fine to argue that nuclear energy is the cleanest and safest way to generate energy, but not that it is completely safe or without risk.
> Same question, what specific "group think" are you so concerned is happening on reddit?

Try posting literally anything contrary to the party line on any noteworthy sub, and see how long it takes you to get banned. Particularly with a new account.

I haven't bothered posting anything on that site in years because it's a 50/50 crap shoot whether it will even be seen, or that the post I just spent 5 minutes of my life writing out will be instantly auto-modded for containing the wrong keyword.
> An LLM doesn't "think", it just puts one word in front of another based on the likelihood of it having been placed in that sequence before.

You are confusing LLMs with Markov chains.
You’re not making sense. Have a nice day, I guess.
they appear to be doing something along those lines, the conclusions around how common it is can be left to the reader
That works in isolation, but not when you're not home. Do you want to talk to your phone in a public restroom, or the subway, or in the office?

> He was in transit to Ecuador, which was going to grant him asylum. The U.S. government revoked his passport, trapping him in the Moscow airport.

So the American Plan To Trap Snowden In Russia For Propaganda Purposes comes down to.... revoking a passport for a wanted criminal, something we do hundreds of times ever month or whatever? Not much of a conspiracy.

That's not how that works. If Ecuador was willing to grant asylum, Ecuador could easily have arranged transportation or issued their own passport. They still could, today! They didn't, and won't. Obviously you can spin that part too as part of a nefarious American Plan. But... Ecuador didn't want him either. It's as simple as that.

And he's in Russia, equally simply, because Russia was willing (frankly eager) to antagonize US influence and interests.

(FWIW: your last example of Snowden's seeming independence from Russian interference is a half decade stale. Please. What does he think of the shooting war his host country started?)

Just don't spin this. Snowden broke US laws, fled the country, and ended up being hosted by an enemy. No more complexity need exist.
Yes it does. Because you didn't use it to overfit your model.

Same goes for data that you had in the last but decided to ignore while building the model.

In both cases there is a legitimate risk of cheating.

The only data that you cannot cheat about is future data.
Paying cash for cars though? Everything I’ve read says that’s not a wise use of cash. The asset loses a ton of value and by paying cash you’ve used it all chasing something that will never appreciate. That being said if you can get value from something for 10+ years that only needs upkeep and insurance maybe the savings pays for that? I dunno.
Looks like reddit is pivoting to be more tiktok-like. You don't need much human moderation if you focus on doom-scrolling mindlessly short videos.
Putting more effort into work doesn't guarantee better results but it certainly could improve the situation for more than 1% of people and to imply otherwise is just as out of touch as a CEO saying "anyone can do it".
Are there any sources for projecting / predicting likely valuation over the course of the RedditStrike?
> it's a waste of money to do it right now

If you're allowed to store the current waste in a facility that's only good for 100 years or so, then yes. But not if you're required to store any waste you don't reprocess for 100,000 years.
Thanks for explaining. This announcement joins a long list of shutdown announcements where I find out a thing exists by its shutdown announcement, which neglects to explain why I should care about it.
So the moment they felt like they'd lose control of whatever power they have on Reddit, they quickly caved? Damn I thought mods were doing all of this for the community, I guess they really don't want to lose their moderator status. Which is weird since they are basically caving in because they were threatened of not having to do volunteer work for the website they are boycotting. It makes no sense, why not just keep it closed and if they remove you as a moderator... Who cares, the point was to close indefinitely right?

As always, Reddit moderators always end up being blatantly and obviously motivated by anything but their own community. Users not having access to their community is fine, as long as the mods don't lose their petty fiefdom I guess.
him editing user comments like he did was also unprecedented, maybe he's just vindictive and belligerent and irrational

his recent behavior suggest that's a possibility
Tens of millions of people in the US live in such a devastating level poverty which is virtually unheard of in Western Europe or Japan. Social mobility is weaker in the "land of opportunity" than in Europe, indicating that your wealth and income as an adult is highly correlated on your parent's wealth and income (so much for the meritocratic fairytale).

I'll take optimising for well-being (with a "strong economy" as a mere tool for that, not an end in itself) over "muh gdp" any day now.
There are lots of people that contribute less to society than they consume, and they are morally OK with that.
If the battery was easier to replace, the phones would still end up unusable either because the storage would wear out, the cell modem would become obsolete, the display would get burnin, or someone would drop it and crack the screen.
Hope they plan on adding a video player that isn’t utter garbage if that’s the case.
Stewart Brand has an interesting take on this in Whole Earth Discipline (which is quite a read) - this is energy we don't know how to use yet. In 100 years, we'll be digging this stuff right up again, because there's energy in there. I'm not typically as utopian - techno or otherwise - as Brand, but I agree with him here - the nuclear industry is less than a century old, and we've already got a pretty good idea how to get enough energy from this fuel to not have a 100k year problem to begin with. Kicking the can down the road a couple decades might actually be the right thing to do here.

I think they're suggesting that young children--in their critical (mental) periods--can somehow turn gay or transgendered due to exposure/normalisation of gay and trans people.

Except there's no science to back this up. All the scientific articles I've ever seen on the topic of gender and sexuality seem to indicate that the critical period for those attributes develop in the womb and not during childhood.

The most likely reason for such deviations from what conservatives would consider, "normal sexuality" is endocrine-distrupting pollution. The kind that causes amphibians to change their sex, for example.
Unless you happen to have some evidence presenting unethical and/or immoral actions on the part of SFB and Caroline during their tenures at JS, it only shows that JS don't try be an oracle predicting future morality or ethics or judgement of their candidates for the rest of their lives.

JS aren't future tellers when it comes to their employees' lives after they leave JS, and JS has no control over those employees once they depart either.

Ah yes, God emperor Aaron Schwartz can do no wrong. He may not have founded reddit, but he certainly got yc to convince the founders to let him use that title. He would certainly make every decision in the way that we would like to see those decisions be made.
Could you give a quick summary of how he is portrayed in the documentary?
The mods are ""scabbing"" their own subreddit in this case. The protest was supposed to be about API access making the site better for all redditors, but as soon as the mods had something to lose they quickly forgot that part.

He's pushing back on the idea with zero research and zero expertise.

You could literally ask your taxi driver for their thoughts and it would be as helpful.

I prefer to see what the outcomes are from real-world experiments which to date are showing that shorter work weeks can be effective in many situations.
> coming up with new ideas

> remixing existing ideas

Those two are the same thing. That's how we do it too - we come up with new ideas through remixing ideas we've learned.
That was not a pro-American comment. I thought that would be self-evident, but perhaps not
The first option makes sense to me. Both choices have the same expected value; I understand that, but I also feel it's more likely I have misunderstood something about the second option. I'm crystal clear on the first.

Literally any tiebreaker for "which of these options with all the same value" seems fine, I do have to make a decision after all. And I think I'd be slightly skeptical that the experimenter is trying to trick me in some way with the second option in the unlikely case that I've misunderstood it.

GDPR has no such exclusion criteria. The definition is astonishingly simple:

‘Personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’).

Note the weight of the word “any” here.
I'm dumb. Should have been 37, not 37,000. So actually 4,953 mm3/Wh, meaning the battery pack is definitely the winner.
Trump isn't being charged for having classified documents in an insecured manner. He's being charged for refusing to give them back after being asked, lying about having them, and obstructing officials trying to get them back from him.
If you opt out of it your phone will suddenly turn off, which is definitely not an improvement over being slow. Having the opt-out is nonsense and an example of bad regulation.

This isn't the only reason an old phone would be slow though, batteries are not the only consumable component in a phone.
I think it perfectly accurate but maybe I'm missing something.

If I want to participate in a protest by not creating content, I don't need a vote or moderator permission to do so. I can just do it.

Going private means that people who want to post can't.

In terms of a strike, it wasn't some people walking out. It was a vote to walk out and then prevent everyone else who wants to work from doing so
> Carter's order isn't what killed reprocessing in the US; cold hard economics did.

No, "cold, hard economics" would say, if you are correct that it's not even cost effective to do any reprocessing now, that the spent fuel should be stored for 100 years or so and then reprocessed, when it's economically cost effective.

But US policy has been that spent fuel has to be stored in a facility that's good for 100,000 years. That makes no sense if the waste is going to be reprocessed 100 years from now. It makes sense only as part of a political scheme to kill nuclear power altogether. Which is exactly what it was, even if on paper reprocessing was "allowed" after the Reagan administration.
"--" isn't anything special in a typical shell. It's just another argument, one that customarily means "pass the rest of arguments on to a subprocess". Or are you confused about the "#"? It doesn't start a comment in the middle of a token.
Ellsberg is a more gracious person than I am. No one forced Snowden to fly to Russia, he made the decision himself in full awareness of the risk that he might get stranded there.
The plan was to order 350 tabs to Finland.

The 300 tabs letter was scanned with lights and got caught.

The 50 tabs letter actually arrived but was obviously lost because customs began their investigation.

In Finland, LSD happens to be "an extremely dangerous" substance and 350 tabs gets "offensive / serious drug crime" (349 would not necessarily). I didn't know this; kind of funny.

However, this was all calculated in the sense that with all probability I will not go into prison nevertheless. Simply cannot try again any criminal activity in Finland / ever / for a long while.

LSD will last long time stored properly. Putting those small bags that packages use to remove moisture into airtight plastic bag and that into dark place where tempest doesn't vary lots.

In GWAS studies there's a nice visualization for dealing with this called Manhattan Plots. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan_plot

What does retirement got to do with whether his wealth is his or not t keep?

> It's a good illustration of just how huge that fortune is, and how little someone needs that much money.

A lot of that money is illiquid wealth that he helped create. Should he give that up to a corrupt politician to distribute "fairly" (cough buy votes for power cough) or should he invest in venues that better humanity.

He doesn't have a Scrooge McDuck type vault with gold coins.

I have some questions below, not to attack, but to understand this view.

1. Should no one have wealth beyond a limit set up by some politician? (lets leave aside what is a "fair" limit and assume politicians have omniscience in this regard)

2. If yes to #1, what incentive would that give for entrepreneurs to create?

3. Do you think wealth is not created? In the world, has wealth remained constant since 1000 AD (an example date). Wouldn't that imply value of human knowledge, creativity and effort is zero?
Damn, TIL that it's either "billionaires pay the least amount of tax in any income bracket" or "the gobnmint seizes 99% of all enterprise stock in 1 year".

I believe KitchenAid stand mixers [assembled in America](https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0qKp-0h9P18), and the parts (edit: excepting the motor) do not appear to be sourced from China.\n\nHave a look around your local Ikea; a lot of their stuff, especially kitchen tools, are from Europe, Taiwan, etc, and not China. They label the source of all their stuff, so you can avoid stuff from China.\n\nZojirushi is a Japanese brand that makes all manner of appliances. Good quality. Work well. Hold up over time. Top-quality engineering.\n\nBlendtec blenders are also assembled in America. Their website casually avoid mentioning where parts are sourced, but they're at least an American firm.\n\nJapan also makes some pretty good knives, if you're in the market for those.\n\nFinally, there is always eBay. And for some appliances, such as toasters, you may in fact be able to get a better product than is available on shelves now.
As someone who's been working on this space as their day job for the last several months, I can say that LLMs are SURPRISINGLY GOOD at this. The real challenge is the sentiment you're articulating here...trust. I've been relating it to self-driving cars. I love the idea, but I'm going to be very anxious the first several times I climb into one to take me somewhere at freeway speeds.

The biggest UX work in the short term is going to be around giving people the right amount of transparency so they still feel in control. The actual LLM work is relatively easy and impressive.
I’m considering Google Cloud Domains (watch as that gets announced as moving to Squarespace too in a week) or porkbun. Either way I want to make sure my account gets shut down and nothing gets ported over so I have one less SOC2 vendor to manage.
