>How would you feel if after being mugged by a close friend, others would tell you to let justice work its way (for 6 months) and stay really close with said friend ?

If it is a matter of one person's word against another's, why would they believe me over the other person? I do not expect that I am any more or less trustworthy than the average person.

Talking about "victims" is presumptuous. A complainant becomes a victim when the crime is proved. Someone isn't automatically a victim just because they say they are. Everyone would love to 'believe victims' but that would require being able to tell precisely who is and who isn't actually a victim... At which point there's nothing to "believe", because you _know_ one way or the other.

This story is complex. If there was an obvious way for CMOs at major brands to distill this issue, such as a metric, they would do it. But instead, if they are brand advertising, they want a CPM that "looks right," and Google delivers that to them with garbage inventory. If they want pure return-on-advertising-spend, Google will show to people it knows will impulse buy, but the ads will be insanely expensive. You can't just arbitrage this as an ad buyer. Anyway, the agencies and media buyers in between the CMO and Google are aligned with Google, because they are paid a budget premium, so it's really their fault that they do not care about fraud.

My disclosure is: I make a purely interactive ad product that only appears in first-party inventory like in social media feeds. In my opinion this is a non-issue if you... Make ads people like.

Here's an example of a highly successful interactive ad creative: https://appmana.com/watch/virtualtestdrive - per 1 million visits, the average engagement time was 65s. A typical video ad has a median of 0s of watch time, and 2.1s on average (hence 5s YouTube ads).

There's nothing new here. Even John Oliver will talk about ads people like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Kfx2fANELo.

At the end of the day, either you make a good creative or you don't. Everything else is noise.
If you're looking to coast like that then yeah, it's hard to leave it. This person actually got out from the PIP by transitioning to 80% (you work four days per week for 80% of the pay and equity). That's definitely not the direction they wanted to go. And it strongly limits your opportunities to advance. Nobody gets promoted unless they work on promo bait projects. Maintenance ain't gonna cut it.

You also can't coast until you hit a certain level (it used to be 5, I think it changed to 4).

Ultimately they were laid off, so was it worth it for them? I don't know, I didn't keep in touch. But maybe.

Any advice for people building the second layer stuff?
One of the big issues with Wayland is the (intentional) fragmentation. Each "Wayland compositor" is really its own window system, with its own peculiarities. This forces applications that would have been trivial to implement on X to either limit support to only a single "compositor", or suffer explosion of compositor-interfacing code.

Apart from that, Wayland is very opinionated, it's basically intended to cater to 70% of users, while flipping off the rest.
Sure, if you're a medium-large company with a whole marketing department. But Google has a massive long tail of small businesses who have no chance of doing that kind of analysis.
All Wayland compositors I am aware of use KMS planes to push a hardware cursor plane. It should work fine.
I am actually writing a piece right now on the best animation frameworks for React (Framer Motion, react-spring etc.)

Was including Amine when I found this very recent HN post. I'm curious, in your perspective, what are the benefits of using Amine over something like Framer Motion? And would you recommend using the react-amine npm package or doing a custom binding—couldn't tell if that package was official.
A variation of this is to explicitly take a job at a company to solve a problem with one language / area, with the understanding that you will do different work once that's complete.

I did this with a consultancy a few years ago. I did some Symfony work for a client they needed help with, but there was an (honoured) agreement that after that I would never have to do PHP work ever again. After that I moved into Python & Golang work.
You described a perfect market scenario, where all players start on common ground and compete between them. Now imagine you have access to all the data from your competitors. Sales numbers, A/B testing on images and descriptions, keywords, etc. It might be good for customers, but it sure isn't ethical and I personally see it as being monopolistic in a way, as in "I'm copying you with your data and you know it, but can't leave my platform because there's no real alternative".
exactly how are the buyers supposed to do that? they have no access to any kind of logs from Googs' servers. it's a perfect setup for Googs. there is no trust but verify. at least with the old school systems of buying radio/tv ads, you can get each market to provide you with an air check showing exactly when/where the ad ran. with print, you could just get a copy of the printed thing. when advertisers were sitting around wondering how they could do less for more, Googs says, hold my beer
Google is built on a super shaky basis? I think every serious thinking person on the internet has always known deep down that ads have been massively overhyped
There’s a long way to go from “no artistic chops” to “compelling art” and although this is subjective, I haven’t seen AI getting there.
Substack has a really annoying implementation of this that can be super non-obvious in some cases, because it’s based on a fixed(-ish?) scroll position but blocks before the modal is effectively visible. On my first visit to the article I was convinced that several links on the page were just underlined text because I happened to scroll to just the right place where I had a modal overlay I couldn’t see. I only discovered they were actually links after giving up and scrolling to read more, then second guessing my original conclusion.

Shop during non-business hours?

I've found that I can shop during business hours fine. And if not during business hours I can shop for what I need in the evenings before stores close. It comes down to time management.

For example, yesterday I took an hour break for lunch and ran a couple errands while I was out. No big deal.

Don't think of it as switching jobs a lot.

Think of it as still searching for the right job,

Last time I tried wayland, only a month or two ago, i ran into multiple bugs that led me to switch back to xserver.

Discord screen share did not work at all. I guess the official app doesn’t support wayland. The workarounds are “use a web browser instead” or “risk a ban with an alternate discord client”.

Which led me to problem 2: screen share did not work in Firefox either. Tried a whole bunch of workarounds but couldn’t get it to work. Either wouldn’t see a display, or Firefox would crash. Nothing worked.

I think I recently saw something in the Firefox patch notes about wayland screenshare, so maybe I’ll give it another go in another few months.
I find touchpad gestures to be a mess on both X11 and Wayland. This is one of the main reasons I don't use Linux on my laptop. Gestures aren't recognized reliably or frequently they just stop working at all. Plus there isn't consistent support for gestures across applications which although not a X11 or Wayland issue is still irritating. Everytime there is a new round of major distro releases I try them. Everytime I go back to Windows because of the gestures issue and poor battery life. The battery life being the main issue. I'll probably not try anymore because neither seems to get better.
Highway traffic on my commute never got back to as bad as it was pre-COVID. I imagine a lot of transit expansion projects won't make sense anymore. (Or less sense than they did before re: induced demand.)
I never understood what all the people who were going on and on about "water intrusion" were saying, because it was never explained. But I think I understand now. Boring old A36 carbon steel is good for like 30ksi (30000psi).

The water pressure is only say 6ksi which is significantly less. That means that the steel is much stronger on its own, in every direction, than the water pressure pushing on it.

The epoxy in most epoxy composites isn't rated for 30ksi, it's generally less than 10ksi and perhaps even less than 5ksi. Epoxy on its own is capable of standing up to less pressure than the composite will see at 13000ft deep.

So the concern is that it's not if but when water manages to wiggle it's way past some of the epoxy between the carbon strands. Sure the bulk composite material can stand up to 6ksi, but if the glue that holds it together is weaker, well, the water can push it out of the way.

However deep the water gets it has reduced the effective thickness and this strength of your composite at that point, if it goes deep enough it shoots through and that's the start of a very quickly evolving collapse.

> any people sleeping under bridges in my country

Snooping at your comment history, you're talking about Finland?

In general, there are massively fewer people sleeping under bridges in places that get seriously cold. How much of this is just climate?

(Ex: in the US, Boston and San Francisco have very different numbers of people sleeping rough, while both being very liberal places for the US)
There's a meaningful point at which I think humans are going to have a reckoning. I think the cause of that reckoning will probably be Climate Change, but maybe I'm wrong.
Regardless, we don't currently see ourselves as the same as everyone else on this planet. We're too stuck on competition and being better than everyone else that we don't realize the only way forward is gonna be to accept people for who they are. There are ways to be selfish that don't mean making everything worse for everyone else. We need to have a symbiotic relationship with ourselves that's at least commensalist, and ideally mutualist. The parasitism that has been our goto for all of human existence isn't going to cut it.

edit: I hope we can make it there in time.

The meta point is poetically spun.

> All human life, we may say, consists solely of these two activities: (1) bringing one’s activities into harmony with conscience, or (2) hiding from oneself the indications of conscience in order to be able to continue to live as before.

> Some do the first, others the second. To attain the first there is but one means: moral enlightenment — the increase of light in oneself and attention to what it shows. To attain the second — to hide from oneself the indications of conscience — there are two means: one external and the other internal. The external means consists in occupations that divert one’s attention from the indications given by conscience; the internal method consists in darkening conscience itself.

I think the analysis here tends a bit pessimistic. Bart just had its biggest day in years at Pride and its recovery is in line with the other agencies in the bay. If you're a fan of BART, I'd also like to invite you to the premiere of my movie about BART, playing at July 18th, 630pm at the Roxie.

Who said anything about harm? Harm is not the only consideration.

We could reduce harm to indigenous peoples living in the Amazon by forcibly moving them into cities with proper healthcare, but this would destroy their culture and violate their right to autonomy.
I struggle to understand why declarative tools are apparently so much more difficult to use than imperative. Why is it my team can, with great mediocrity, write a shell script, but cannot write a terraform or ansible to do the same?

Why is it they can follow a recipe to kind of make a mint birthday cake but they can't point at a picture of a cake on a picture menu and say "that one!"

Sometimes I think they don't actually know what they want before they start. And as the script evolves, like finger painting, they start to kind of like the blobs ...

But, I dont work at a software company. I just work at an enterprise with a large IT department.

You can sort of solve it by ensuring the frame is generated (or at least the cursor added to it) just in time for vsync (ie as late as possible) but it won’t be as good as a traditional hardware cursor

> At that point it's worse than what you already know from your browser - it may show the service is having issues when you can access it, or that the service is ok when you can't.

Worst case you have more data points to draw conclusions from. Status page red, works for me? Hmm, maybe that's why the engineers in the other office are goofing off on Slack. Status page green, I get HTTP 500s? Guess I can't do this thing but maybe other parts of the app still work?
That's true. Even if I intellectualize a trip on BART as risk-free, it's still anxiety inducing and involves inconvenience I would volunteer to avoid if I had a car.
"because of the Liberal government's Online News Act"

That's an odd sentence. Shouldn't it just say "From the government"? Seems weirdly leading to point that it out as "because of the liberal government". I dunno, I don't read much news.
Big brands don't care. They have massive budgets that they need to spend and are happy to spend them or else they get cut.
Because these are the people who are trying to "front run" with an MVP. They think if they can build something and get feedback, they'll be ahead with their fuller vision.

I see a lot of companies that are experimenting with it, and there are a few press releases here and there, but there is a next generation that will be more ambitious. You just can't build more ambitious in the timeframe yet.
I'm not sure. I'm not an expert, but it doesn't seem that different from including public domain text and art in your game.

I assume that, if it is true that Valve isn't allowing games with generated images, it's because (they feel) the legal status could change, not because of the current status.

> Student loans also conveniently are non-dischargable except by death. Almost like being enslaved.

The point is that complaining about access to loans and concluding that I'm privileged because my dad could have accessed loans easier than a person of color is neither here nor there, because there were (and still are) plenty of programs that give preferential access to financial aid to minorities when I went to college, including but not limited to loans.

About as much as the color of my skin has to do with my current situation in life.
What humans do when they learn is a completely separate issue and has absolutely nothing to do with how this technology is regulated.
In my social circle there is a perception that the BART is increasingly unsafe and some people who previously used the BART to commute from East Bay to SF are now driving.

Their perception seems to be born out by the data:

From the Bay Area Rapid Transit Police Department [1]

Aggravated Assault (2019): 112

Aggravated Assault (2022): 114

Relative increase (2019 -> 2022) adjusted for ridership:

114/112/0.3 = 3.39x

This has been foreseen. I may be negatively biased, but if what you're saying is generic enough that an AI can write it, is it worth saying? I think this was always a fundamental question, but AI will make it much more explicit. I expect conciseness and originality to become more and more important over time, as simply having content becomes a non-signal.
Ok but this is not the reason. People don’t ride BART because half of working professionals now work at home and don’t need it. You can clearly see this in the fact that weekend BART riders is most of the way back to pre-COVID levels. Riders are not afraid of the system. It just doesn’t serve their weekday needs right now.

By the way freeway shootings in the Bay Area tripled to more than one every day and plenty of people still use the freeway.
Which area did you ride it in?
> Because you can't have your cake and eat it too. If Google can't cache the whole article, they can't provide search for the article.

Yeah, this is exactly the point that such a regulation would bring up. Businesses can't expect Google to both use your data and not use your content in their search results.

If you say "I don't want Google's indexers to read my content and surface it to people that haven't clicked my site", that's fine -- Google won't be able to index your content (as requested), though, so your site won't appear in search results.

This seems like a situation where the cards are much more clearly on the table, and my expectation is that no reasonable business would choose to have Google not index their full content.
I live here and take BART all the time. My partner has some car crash trauma so unless I'm driving, she's using transit to get around and she generally feels safe. It can get sketchy at night on the weekdays but otherwise neither of us have had problems on BART.

FWIW people complain about sketchy people and odd comments on BART, but I've also been followed by a driver I merged in front of who circled the block, cut me off, tried to follow me home, then flashed a knife on me and threatened to shank me. Last year someone got mad at me on the freeway then brake checked me at an exit. People run reds here all the time too, which is scary on both car, bike, and foot. As long as I use BART before 11 PM on weekdays I never really feel more unnsafe than I do when driving, but I also am not the type that likes to live away from people. I enjoy cities.

It's possible I misunderstood this line:

> You can invent whatever system you want, like the one you proposed here, but if the outcome is disproportionate then it is, by definition, a racist system.

> Why? Because race is a construct. It’s fake. Factually speaking, the only differences between these constructed racial groups are things like hair texture and skin pigmentation. Anyone saying otherwise is lying to preserve the construct.

I read this as saying that any difference in outcomes is due to racism. My understanding of your argument is that if it were not for racism then all outcome curves would be identical across all racial categories, because there are no real differences between racial groups.

If that was misunderstanding, I apologize!
