My next sentence was going to be an example about a car and calculating the number of seats. Its a shame how quickly I need to move to a real world example, but when talking to a programming noob, I feel bad for saying the word attribute/class/method.

If so, it sounds interestingly similar to 1980s-90s IBM and its approach towards personal computers.
That's a very worthwhile point but one about a different issue. Consider also the possibility that if my device has been bricked but the battery is still doing OK, I might wish to use it in a different device.

If by it you mean LLaMA 1, then I don't think per the license one can use it for commercial projects. So, it isn't really libre. That said, all indications are that LLaMA 2 would be fully FLOSS.

If you meant OPT, it isn't libre either: https://github.com/facebookresearch/metaseq/blob/main/projec...

Does it have to be dystopian before one disagrees on principle?

I'm guessing Windsor (42.3149° N), but CA's northern latitude is almost 42° N exactly, so it turns out to be Middle Island instead (41.40° N).
I actually read this article for some random reason (it happens sometimes) and HN has a similar problem - there are third party apps that charge money. HN has always taken a friendly approach to third-party projects as long as they make it clear they aren't official and include links to the original HN comments/submissions, but the charging money part doesn't feel right to me. I'd rather that everything HN-related be free and in the spirit of just-because.

Since Google started charging us quite a bit for the Firebase API a year or two ago, we're in a similar position to what the article describes - we're paying for https://github.com/HackerNews/API and thus indirectly funding the commercial apps.

Btw this is not to take a side on any of the Reddit stuff - that would be ultra dumb of me and anyway I'm succeeding at staying ignorant of the details. But I think it's worth saying something publicly about the analogous issue on HN because we might have to do something about it at some point.

The current API isn't particularly usable (you have to request individual items to get an entire thread) and our long term plan is to replace it with a more usable one that just gives a JSON representation of any HN URL and is hosted on our server. I've been posting about that for an embarrassing number of years (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...) but you all know how slow we are. Anyhow, whenever we get there, we'll probably do proper things like have API keys and terms of service and whatnot. If the commercial app thing is still a thing at that point, maybe we can find some decent way to address it.
Undesirable resharing of personal information is only one consequence. In my time on the internet I've known it to be said in the context of other consequences, be it archiving, digital archaeology, datahoarding, etc.

I do like legislation that stops big players from using their resources to be exploitive, and I understand the right to be forgotten for individuals.

The other edge of the sword is all the reasons why information wants to be free. I am biased towards this side.

Either way, I think it's important to remember to operate under the axiom that nothing is deleted from the internet. Deletion (by legislation or by privacy tools and services) is a cludge, and saving and resharing is the natural force.

I was thinking about getting an xperia, I asked about rooting/custom rom and apparetly unlocking the bootloader will delete keys that the camera needs to run. Seeing as it's designed as a cameraphone first and foremost, that's a bit of a major feature to lose.

Why, as a user, is that story (even without losing the camera) would any of that sound better than just having the app store require that apps follow some approval guidelines about what they are allowed to do with privileges and what they are allowed to do when denied privileges?

Unfortunately, you can't really have sideloading and an app review process. If sideloading is trivial/normalized for users then it'll be trivial/normalized for bad actors wanting to exploit those users.

In my decades of being in the industry, I've never actually seen anyone use the "waterfall" method as described by the agile crowd anyway. If I did, I'd avoid working there as well.

Nope. I've never worked at a place that used the "waterfall" model in my entire career. I'm not saying they don't exist, just that I've never seen one.

Your impression of what non-agile development looks like bears no resemblance to what I've seen and experienced.

> I don't think your lack of success is because of the remote aspect

Otoh I’m pretty confident I would have a job by now if I were open to non remote work.

Of course, I don’t do react work, but equally droll .NET work. I’ve had some interviews, usually with a few companies at a time with large dry spell in between, but a vast majority have been from recruiters reaching out with on-site or hybrid roles which would require a tedious and expensive move I don’t need right now. When I scroll through something like LinkedIn’s job board adding the remote filter significantly cuts out results, leaving a lot of low effort spam listings (i.e. recruiting firm posting the same remote job for every goddamn city the hiring manager could think of). I’ve had one interview for a remote role this go around and it was earlier this week, but I doubt it will go anywhere. I’ve been out of work a little bit longer than OP with A roughly similar YoE.

The other thing I’ve noticed is a lot more “specialist” roles than I’ve ever seen before and a lot less “generalist” ones.

Yeah that part is really wild - there were making money already off a 3rd party app, then decided to NOT take their money in 2016, then not enforce any trademarks (assuming that was what the deal was for) for what, 7 years?! How is that not gross incompetence? Minority shareholder lawsuit territory?

It's really clear that spez wants terminate any 3rd party clients whatsoever, I assume at this point any talk of app devs actually working with them is also a lie, as is the moderator tools and accessibility tools getting free API access.

Finally, the initial email the RIF received is so egregious - IMMEDIATE COMPLIANCE REQUIRED, when they hadn't even changed their actual terms yet.

Who would invest in a Reddit IPO now?! If they had done _nothing_ up to this point, I probably would have bought some, not that I am anyone of note, but I assume any serious fund would steer clear too at this point.
Where can you get new old stock for the same price as used?
For majority of people work is a mean to the end. If they know they'll have to spend more time working, they'll fluff it with more not-actually-work to compensate. That's all there is to it.

An extreme natural workaholic will have a hard time understanding it.
Sure. You mitigate risk on speculation by hedging. I'll try and give a similarly simple (if not perfectly accurate and far more lengthy) explanation. Someone mentioned farming financials in the comments around this, so we'll use that. It's also something I know well, as I know a lot of farmers.

Let's imagine that a commercial farmer, whom we'll call Jeremy plants 100 acres of wheat on a farm. Market values for wheat (and everything else you can farm, from livestock to grains and so on) vary and move constantly, as a function of supply and demand. We saw this in an extreme form with the invasion of the Ukraine, and the droughts in Italy last year.

Now the problem with farming is your timescales are long compared to the movements of values for your product in the market, so you've no real idea as to what what you're planting will be worth by the time the bloody thing has actually grown and you've got it harvested and into barns to be sold. And once the seed is in the ground, you can't exactly just plough it all over and plant something else (not strictly accurate, but you don't want to go down that route).

So now let's fast forward. Jeremy now harvests his wheat, and let's say the price has moved up a lot between planting and harvest. Jeremy is a happy man, who's going to have a bumper time, even if his crop doesn't produce as much per acre as he might like at the minute, because it's not raining enough. Or conditions are perfect, and the price has gone up, and he makes a huge amount and can reinvest. Jeremy is a happy camper.

However, if the price falls, Jeremy is not going to be quite so chipper. As such, Jeremy can move his risk, through the use of a hedge. Let's say Jeremy hunts around to find someone to buy his wheat at the start of the season. He might sign a contract with a flour producer, stating that they will promise to buy x tonnes of his grain at £y per tonne. Jeremy now has a fixed price, which has hedged his risk profile. Now his risk has moved from financial to productive - he has to be able to provide the x tonnes. If he can't produce it all on the farm, he needs to source the difference. On the other hand, if he's a good farmer, and the farm produces well, and he doesn't over-extend his risk on what he's committing to, he now has a fixed price contract for his goods, which isn't going to fluctuate based on time (assuming the contract is honoured - if he's worried about that, Jeremy could then buy insurance on the risk of a default on the contract, but that then gets complex). This is a very good thing, but means if the market prices his wheat vastly higher than he expected, he'll miss out on that upside.

This is called a forward contract. There's other types of contract which can be used to do similar things (futures, derivatives...) but that gets a bit more complex.
Congratulations Canada!
Thank you as well. Have a nice weekend!
Unlimited should not include a data cap and that's just common sense (no, 2G throttle doesn't count).
The right comparison would be with the area and population of southern & maybe eastern Ontario and use that. Northern Ontario is really just something else. Anything north of the line where the Canadian shield begins becomes basically unarable and extremely low population density. And once you get past e.g. Timmins, there's really ... "nothing." (Pretty though.)

I don't have the patience to go look this up, but obv it will clearly be below Istanbul, but likely about equivalent with most of the US

Istanbul/Constantinople, ... a heavily populated city for like 2000 years, not to mention the region going back to the, uh, paleolithic and it's literally basically the origin of ... farming and settled agriculture. Kinda weird comparison.

I'm around pools and spas a good bit and like having my phone near me to do stuff like control music and be able to respond to events without needing to get out of the water. Pools have killed quite a few of my devices in the past. Just the other day I tripped while working around the pool and fell in (quite dangerous, for sure) and I had my phone in my pocket. If it wasn't waterproof, I'd be out a few hundred bucks from that accident.

I also like to go hiking and camping a good bit. I've lost a few electronic devices from getting caught in a storm. Its nice having the peace of mind that it doesn't matter if I get completely soaked with my phone in my pocket.

Finally, I have kids, and they're of the stage where its fun to throw things in toilets and in sinks.

> it's not a controversy within the economics field that broad wage gains perpetuate inflation

Yes I agree that is what is commonly taught. A causes B. And it's true A (broad wage gains) can and do cause B (inflation).

However it does not mean that B is usually caused by A. And that's the actual slight of hand that's happening here.

To understand simply look at these two graphs. Monthly inflation since April of 2020 and us unemployment rate since then.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/273418/unadjusted-monthl...

Notice annual inflation (presented monthly) grew enormously beginning around June of 2020. Peaking at 9% plus in June of 2022. It is now steadily falling and down around 5% and likely will continue to fall.

Now take a look at us unemployment during that same time. Unemployment shot up around the same time in 2020 (which should've caused significant disinflation according to the direct interpretation above which it didn't). It also has been consistent at around 3.5-3.6 percent for the past almost year+ and inflation has consistently fallen.

https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000000

Looking at it, there is essentially no correlation with our actual experienced inflation and our actual experienced unemployment rate. If anything at times it was negatively correlated (the opposite of what was above).

Hence the reason I say, that it is the commonly spouted economic orthodoxy and it is what is taught and discussed, but you can see clearly it was not the cause of our recent inflation. Nor was it the cause of our 1970s inflation, and other instances of inflation. Frankly I'm shocked that economic orthodoxy hasn't caught up to this - and I'm starting to see some rumblings that following this episode in the 2020s it will. But if it does, the update will be motivated by popular culture / media discussion prompting it, which is extremely disappointing to see for any science field - regardless of whether it's a hard science or soft science.

So in short - A implies B, does not mean that B implies A. And that's essentially what is being discussed here. We experienced tons of inflation and it wasn't driven by wage growth. Stomping out wage growth is not solving he underlying problem. Energy costs and fixing the supply side is what would (and will address the root cause). Energy has mostly fixed itself (from it's peak) and supply is much better but still having some issues.

Yea. But it still requires carrier support and often carriers won’t allow you to connect a phone to their network if it doesn’t support a compatible standard. I guess you could use Google Voice over wifi.
It's weird regardless of the drug.
Ha, I think I’m probably in a pretty similar boat as you. I don’t have the expertise to evaluate any of the underlying science, so all I can really do is try to logically evaluate whatever I read about it (taking into account the author’s probable motivations). I think my current view is that is probably isn’t a deliberately engineered bioweapon, almost certainly wasn’t deliberately released, and could go either way on zoonotic transmission and an accidental release.

The aspect that puzzles me most are the claims (which still seem to circulate regularly) saying that the virus was definitely present (in Wuhan, or Italy, or wherever) in Q3 2019. But I’ve never seen any direct evidence of this. Shouldn’t it be a pretty trivial matter of testing pre-pandemic blood samples to definitely identity whether or not the virus is present? I’m sure I’m missing something, but if HIV could be identified from late ‘50s specimens that had been forgotten in a Belgian Congolese lab for several decades, I don’t know what would be different here.

Substack isn't a social network. Discussion is just a function of a post's comments, which can always be disabled. If you don't like a blog, you can leave and go to another. There's no real cross-pollination. I suppose the "bad" blogs could hurt Substack's reputation, but they're willing to bear the reputational damage rather than shut it down, which I respect.

Since you initially brought up Reddit, it's worth examining whether healthy discussions are happening there. If you've ever used reveddit, you can see the types of censorship that happens on popular threads. Activist moderators are everywhere. The only reason discussion looks healthy is because anything remotely "controversial" is nipped in the bud before 100 others had a chance to upvote or agree with it. A thread's apparent civility is not always an indication of healthy discussion.

My point is there are negative externalities no matter how far you move the dial on moderation/censorship. Not enough moderation, and you discourage real discussion but encourage toxicity, harassment, and trolling, i.e., 4chan and Parler. Too much moderation, and you also discourage real discussion but encourage censorship, intolerance, and groupthink, i.e., Reddit in 2023.

I guess that is mostly true. In theory you could think of a more efficient way to store the indexes such as run-length encoding. So you could store 1M of whatever the first byte of Pi is and then run-length encode the 1M zero addresses. You can also imagine a scheme such as 2 bit varint encoding the indexes or a tally system that only uses 1 bit per offset to store a zero.

...of course you are still better off to just compress the file consisting of a single repeated byte.
Thanks! This survey is helpful.
>Good laws should be applied as widely as possible.

Literally nobody except criminals would disagree with this. That's what makes is of limited value in a discussion like this. It's like saying "Good speech should be disseminated everywhere." Yes. We already agree, to the point where the argument is that protections for good speech aren't really needed.

The difficulty is getting a handle on what is a "good law". This is difficult, in part, because we can't always understand the effects down the causal chain. We also can't always get people to agree on the definition. Is a "good law" one that prioritizes safety over personal freedom or is it the other way around? I dunno, but this is even harder in a democracy, where everyone (theoretically, at least) has a voice.
