> come into our job and tell us how to do it?

Many people practice teaching in a variety of settings. Their demonstrated ability has little correlation with their credentials.

If someone gets stuck on an amateur plumbing or construction project, they call a professional. In other words, the professional competence is trivially demonstrable and applicable. Can you imagine needing a credentialed teacher to get you out of a bind?

> they believe they have insider knowledge as to how the system works.

Although the average person may be incorrect about how to fix it. It's not a good sign that almost everyone leaves with the feeling that something is deeply wrong and almost any alternative would make more sense.

> because they have had one child

Merely being exposed to more examples isn't data, you also need superior methodology. Even in educational academic studies you will find a lot to be desired in this regard.

The people I know who are most vocal about education have many children (4-8+). And they put their money where their mouth is and homeschool. Also, their children tend to grow up with a wide variety of personalities and lifestyles.

> get into the mix and actually help

The system is designed to remove autonomy and responsibility from teachers. They are overwhelmed by curriculum, and program mandates from school, district, and state. The best teachers I had were essentially opted out. A few completely donated their time and refused to participate in any school trainings or events outside their classroom.

The best way I can see to get involved is probably to advocate for vouchers and organize teaching in your neighborhood.

He's not the CEO of Bluesky.

No, that's his main thing. He was distracted by also being CEO of Twitter, and Twitter suffered from that. He seemed like just a glorified mascot, on Twitter to shill for his other stuff. Remember also that Bluesky started as a Twitter project, but it basically got tossed out by Twitter after the Musk acquisition (along with almost everyone else).

You're saying this like the laws aren't different in other countries without these issues arising. It's reasonable to argue that a police officer on duty is exempt from the expectation of privacy and indeed many such countries have exemptions for police officers on duty.

It's also reasonable to have different expectations of privacy for people "of public interest" (i.e. celebrities, politicians and extremely wealthy business moguls) and indeed many such countries do distinguish between what privacy you can expect as an ordinary individual or someone whose job literally involves having their face frequently appear in public media.

Your response is very American too, by the way: while you are concerned about state oppression (or rather: the ability to record state oppression) I'm concerned about the oppression by both businesses and the state that a complete absence of an expectation of privacy outside well-defined private spaces enables. Specifically it trivial to justify mass surveillance and various forms of harassment.
How much of supercharger reliability comes down to selecting the population of cars, though? I've wondered if deploying chargers that are meant to plug into various vehicles is somehow more difficult, or more likely to damage the charger. Aside from software flaws, by far the most common problem I see with non-Tesla chargers is some current module has taken itself offline due to internal fault detection, leaving the dispenser operating at half capacity or sometimes zero capacity. This has also made me curious as to whether Tesla simply lacks these fault-finding safety devices, or they do the better.

This rural/urban divide is probably a dynamic worth exploring regardless of region. The relative anonymity of large urban areas provides very different incentives toward maintaining personal integrity than in a small rural town where reputation damage can result in real and permanent losses.

I'm not arguing rural is better than urban; on the contrary, damage caused by idle gossip can permanently ostracize a person for reasons beyond their control and result in long term economic and social damage. The dynamic of smaller groups vs large anonymous groups is one worth exploring, in my humble opinion.
Im trying to lead him to the conclusion that “capitalism evil” is a silly stance.

Why aren’t you and GP out there building houses for a loss? None of the people complaining about capitalism ever actually practice their own ideals.

Anyone is free to start a non-profit org that builds homes and you can still cut yourself + employees a salary.
I don't.

When I quit at a bank, I wrote in my departure letter that I wished to have my 2 week's notice waived.

They denied my request and tried to convince me to stay for the two weeks, saying very sarcastically, "Oh, I guess you have a new job starting tomorrow."

That ticked me off to no end, so I said bluntly "No. There is another much more obvious reason why I wish to leave immediately," and spelled out in no hesitant terms how he made the environment toxic, and he just demonstrated by his response why I didn't want to be there.

I then pointed out that forcing someone to stay in a position they've already voiced they don't wish to be in creates a de facto disgruntled employee, which the corporate policy identifies as a direct security threat.

I told him I'd happily write that up if he wished me to provide it to his director, and then escorted myself out.

A month later, that manager got demoted and moved to another business unit. Apparently things really fell apart after I left, and people used my leaving as evidence of his outright lack of professional leadership.

I did have a new job starting the next day, but it wasn't his business to know.

Did I mention any of this in the interview? No, and not even after I got hired. I focused on the opportunity they had to offer, which was very aligned with my career goals. Better than sounding like I'd bad-talk them when I decide to move on from there. Likewise, I left nothing in writing that would burn bridges from the previous place.

> Why video games and not movies or TV? Why not books or music?

There's no dichotomy, all of these things effect the people who experience them. Whether this is harmful or for the best is highly subjective, and depends a lot on the specific nature of the experience. But regardless, to say that somebody can read books and not be at all effected by those books is absurd. If that were the case, if reading books were nothing but a NOOP waste of time that had no effect on the reader, then why does our culture encourage people to read?

We encourage people to read because books do change people and most people think it's a net positive. Nonetheless, it is possible that books in general are a net positive, but some books might be a negative influence on people (and others, an unusually positive influence.) Video games aren't special in this regard. They, like anything people might experience, will influence those that experience it. Whether this influence is for the better or worse overall is highly subjective (which is why most people aren't very keen on empowering censors who lack nuance.)
Yeah, lots of people think rich capitalists like exploiting people for their labor to enrich themselves, but the truth is they hate it. It's is an unfortunate necessity. If they can replace bothersome employees with a system that does the job "well enough" they'll do it over night and won't lose a wink of sleep over those who were displaced.

Teaching is not nearly as hard as you lay it out to be.

The problem is teaching is los pay and low status in most places, and as such mostly attracts people who are terrible teachers.

Our kids are in private school now because our public school is a dumpster fire of bad teachers and admins. The private school teachers don’t get paid a lot but they are valued and highly motivated to actually reach kids. The difference is astounding.

And the private school teachers aren’t doing anything exotic or difficult. They are teaching just like kids were taught decades ago. Heck, my fifth grader is learning Latin.

Yes, if you're familiar with docker compose and the compose file specification, adding docker swarm to the mix is very simple. You're basically swapping out the docker host with the swarm manager node. If you're genuinely only operating with a single host I don't think you even need swarm though, and regular compose mode is just fine.

At one time, there was. (And still is in Asia). The idea was to buy up undeveloped land, build a train line to it, develop a whole new city, and then sell it off in parcels.

I embrace the hope side of this post. Every person should be free to have their own web site, their own public voice. If you have a grievance, you should be able to tell the world, and unless you're breaking the law AND societal norms doing so, nobody should be able to stop you.

There's nothing that says everything has to be open to everyone. With capability based tokens, you could give access to select portions to friends, family, co-workers, etc. If you want to put all of your mp3s up for your own use, or to share with friends, but not accessible to others, why not?

We should all have a voice in this new medium. Let's not shun this idea because the details aren't perfect. Our need to pick apart things helps us avoid future trouble when we're coding... but it's not always the most constructive response. That's the first problem I see with this post... our (HN et al) reaction to it.

The other problem I see is technical, but also related to our views of the world... and that's security. Given our current views on operating systems, especially our support of systems with ambient authority, it is unwise to make a habit of just visiting any random website. This is why walled gardens are so popular. It's a technical issue that is widely seen to be a problem with either capitalism and markets, or some malign quirk of human nature, but the root cause is technical.

Related Tangent about OS design: Imagine if there were no fuses or circuit breakers, and nobody had heard of them.... would you be willing to just randomly plug in a device from an unknown manufacturer? You could potentially burn your house down, and have everyone in your grid mad at you (because they no longer have power) as a result. You'd never do anything imaginative in that world with electricity. This is how I see our world with the internet and our crop of OSs that have ambient authority everywhere.
Good, unfortunately. Developer time is a zero-sum game.

uber-sophisticated IDE

I love this. As if any developer is not much more productive with a 4GB+ RAM IDE churning away at their code base and suggesting all sorts of things as you write code. OMG: See ClangTidy! All C++ IDEs these days are either directly incorpating ClangTidy, or copying its features. When I use CLion, as a medium-level C++ programmer, it is scary how good are the suggestions from ClangTidy!
The construction industry is innovative, but on the other hand it is also one of the oldest industries on the planet, dating back literally thousands of years.

That's a bit vague, though. On the one hand, there is most definitely a prioritization of love and concern (close family comes before extended family, and onward, all the way up to the entire human species according to principles of subsidiarity), so you have a moral obligation to prioritize those closer to you, all else remaining equal.

But you don't get to intentionally (undesirable side effects can be permissible) commit evil acts against people of less concern (like robbing your neighbor to send your kid to college) for the sake of people of greater concern (or vice versa, of course). That's how the mafia operates. It's analogous to the difference between patriotism (the healthy and obligatory love of and concern for one's own nation) and chauvinism (the idolatrous and narcissistic "love" of one's own nation coupled with contempt and condescension for other nations).
It seems like it would be hard to automate being a plumber or electrician, AI isn't really being aimed at that problem.

> replacing even cheap locks would be much more expensive than having them re-keyed.

Replacing a cheap (or even average household) lock is cheaper than the minimum labor charge a locksmith will charge to show up, but you still need someone to do the labor of replacing it.

Also, if you use certain brands of lock, if you buy one new lock of the same brand it comes with a special rekeying tool that will allow you to rekey all your matching-brand locks to the key that comes with the new lock.
