> Blender once had a huge update that only changed the minor version number

Blender was not semver until 3.0 so that is perfectly valid. You can't complain about semver projects and inconsistent versioning and then pull out non-semver projects.

That’s fine, though. Why do we take for granted that the “town square” should be able to exist as a for-profit enterprise?
Are you profitable yet?
Yeah, a lot of vintage stuff hitting the HN front page lately. I'm loving that.
im yet to pay a dime for mx linux and its freaking fast and awesome.
You're talking about getting motivation by increasing the % of revenue you're getting from the company - that seems to not have anything to do with the article at hand, which is about intensity of work and long term team output with constant high pace vs constant low / medium pace.
How Twitter lost its place as the global town square
If that's the case then we might as well short the stock of all the public cloud companies who repackage and sell Open Source software. Why use RDS when PostreSQL is open source?

I hope they turn this back on - seems like a good idea. I can’t fathom the right wingers who spread misinformation being surprised. Also “this isn’t a free speech platform” is hilarious - neither is Twitter, Musk just allows bigotry.
> .Net's intention by using bytecode is safety, sandboxing and performance.

Not true. You can get all of that in C++ if you’re careful and enable compiler flags that no one uses. The entire reason for the IL platform that .NET uses is for cross-platform executables, just like Java.

.NET does give one safety in the form of bounds checking and what-not, but that’s the runtime, not the byte code. There’s no “bounds check” opcode; array dereferences are managed by the runtime and bounds checks are elided if safety can be proven (like Rust does).
I sort of don't doubt that VC-funded companies are less likely to succeed than bootstrapped companies, simply because bootstrapped companies can keep afloat with consulting and VC-funded companies can't. But vastly lower odds of product success sounds like something that'll need a citation.

It seems likely that VC-funded app store pure plays without a recurring revenue SAAS component are much less likely to succeed than indie app store pure plays, but that's because VC is obviously the wrong model for one-and-done app store transactions. If you have a good idea for an app, don't raise for it (you'll have a hard time raising for it anyways).
This very much captures what I am working on. It is (currently java) a sdk dependency + ide plugin, which records input/return values of Java methods. Once recorded you can either instantly replay it on a running process (also works on hot-reloads) OR save it as a fixture which you can replay after a process restart. In our workflow we save these fixtures to git so anyone in the team can replay them. But there are a couple of things I feel are needed on top of this

- a flexible assertion framework, currently I am doing a straightforward string equals to identify breaking changes
- a mocking feature for downstream calls, currently nothing is mocked out so it is basically an integration test, but as the discussion shows, mocking can be quite handy in a variety of situations
Last time I checked, the town square is where a majority of the netizen congregate to throw around ideas. Not some place a journalist conjures up in his mind.
Then where does the rejected student go with their voucher?

Segregating misbehaving students is a feature. Rejecting them is a bug.
Are you using CloudFlare for your DNS (i.e. 1.1.1.1)? The archive URLs (ph, is, today) used to block requests from them for some reason (and possibly still do).

EDIT: Apparently the issue was resolved in 2022 (on mobile and gotta run so can't link wiki page).

Which websites or store in Europe and UK would you suggest to get refurbished laptops and mobiles?
“Reading is Fundamental” (blaming myself)

You said

“ Old console games that are not available on PC
Dragon Quest games (1-6, 8, Builders)
Final Fantasy Tactics
etc.”

I thought you were listing examples of old games that are not on mobile (that’s completely on me)
VC bubble was a side effect of 0% rates and free money for 15+ years, no? High interest rates are making that impossible for the foreseeable future. I think nntaleb puts it right about this new era where "it doesn't rain money anymore" for revenue-less companies and real estate

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhuSM8JTSpU

I think the biggest stain that was left from this era is that it mixed the millionaires made from cash flow with the millionaires made from empty valuations, and now the two are inseparable

Right-leaning users were banned more often than left-leaning users.

https://psyarxiv.com/ay9q5

The reason is that Conservative/Republican users of Twitter also tended to break the rules more often. Particularly in regards to sharing misinformation.

Depending on which side of the aisle you lean, it's very easy to spin this one way vs the other.
Fair Dice (2009)
Definitely a sad state of affairs. I've learnt to look at management and more importantly corporate leadership from the lens of macleod's theory of org hierarchy - ie org being a pyramid of sociopaths, clueless and losers (in the financial sense).

This attrition biz makes a lot of sense as our entire economy is geared towards showing short term improvements by sociopaths who will jump ship before any of the long term impact comes into play or can be attributed to them. Why else would wall st be rewarding these crazy layoff numbers?

Take meta. They reduced costs by Culling about 25% of the workforce. While a great short term financial gain, how has that changed the long term outlook re productivity to merit a stock doubling in a good few months (or was it a tripping?). Is anyone seriously beleiving this culling, stack ranking and doubling of workload and stress and infighting is actually going to attract missionaries? Or is it that just warm bodies would do?
As another commenter noted, you're making lots of assumptions. For example, your mindset sounds, to me, entirely "modern 'western'".

I would suggest that the fundamental issue with your assumptions is a blurring of the lines when it comes to the objective and subjective. Specifically, nature and certain realms of human existence ARE objectively "harsh", unforgiving, uncomfortable, etc. However, that does not mean that all who exist or have existed in such realms are miserable.

If you've not seen this before, this show is just one (of a great many materials not so prevalent in modern western intensely consumer / advertising / so-called "achievement"-oriented cultures) reference with some real views of massive differences in (subjective) experience people can have across various "objective" realities:

In any case, your policy proposals earlier would, IMO, add up to poor outcomes. Not because they are inherently so bad / worse than what's been tried - more just due to the nature of the problem. Our tools / these sorts of tools are incredibly blunt compared to the complexity of the problem. And, trying to put in place some of what you propose, would definitely harm some people - in part simply in making the changes.

I am not claiming to be able to do any better, though, for sure.
No. It’s an article about getting more productivity out of workers without burning them out.
Webservers should have a maintenance mode setting. If this setting is enabled, an HTTP 503 is returned for any request. The setting should be enabled by default.
A common area where people gather to shout/listen.
Agree to disagree then, per wikipedia and several other sources that pop up when googling.
>even without the managment nightmare

Works in Threads.

Works in Facebook.

Works in WhatsApp.

In fact, can you think of any other Meta property where links don't work, excluding Instagram?

I think the, "managment nightmare" is a boogeyman.
Town squares emerge where people gather. In the physical world, this happens out of necessity, and due to the incentives of our economic system.

But I don’t think the internet version of this analogy holds up if you were to just erase social networks tomorrow.

Depending on one’s goals, starting your own site on some corner of the internet is akin to opening a store in the middle of nowhere. I can do it, but no one is coming here unless I find the place that people gather and tell them about my new shop in mountains.

The fabric of internet does enable this, but if I want to build a store, I’m going to do it somewhere where people gather, or I’m still going to rely on the places that people already gather to spread the word.

If I’m ambitious, what I really need to do is build a new town so that a square can emerge. But now I’m Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, etc.

Analogies between the Internet itself and the town square have always been shaky, and the deeper one goes, the more stark the differences. I’d argue that the internet is closer to the world stage — a place in which anything can happen, but more like the raw environment in which town squares emerge than a town square itself.
I think it is important to
point out that this essay only claims that
Hering’s theory and general concepts of color opponency and cone opponency is wrong and not the idea of opponent colors in general.

"Proof of color opponency was established decades before Hering, with the discovery of complementary-color pairs and color afterimages [29.,30.]; color opponency is implemented by retinal cone-opponent neurons [22.]. Trichromacy and complementarity organize colorimetric space [31.], and Hering’s theory can be discarded without threatening these well-established principles."
What are you advocating for? Would you ask the Ukrainian population to lay down their arms and suffer war crimes at the hands of the Russian army without resisting? What choice do they have? Speaking for myself as an American who lived in Ukraine for many years, I am glad the US are supporting Ukraine. I am not pro war in general, but the only paths to peace from where we are seen to be through war.
North Korea was never a Soviet pet project. It's a Chinese buffer state that the Chinese don't even particularly like, but that they keep up because it's either that or have the US military, which they previously fought in the Korean War and which threatened to blow nukes up and which likely used biological weapons*, on their border. Both the USSR and China materially supported North Korea, but since the Sino-Soviet split, the Kims learnt to play the Chinese and Soviets off each other and therefore maintained a very high level of autonomy.

As a fellow African you'll know from France's (and Belgium's) involvement in the continent what exactly democratic and peaceable world powers do with weaker powers.

* Altought there is no scholarly consensus on either side nor ironclad evidence, there is a lot of circumstancial evidence, from reporters claiming to have seen odd ordinance dropped onto cities which would then have unexplained outbreaks, to American POWs admitting they were involved and refusing to recant even when they were in the US, until they were coerced to recant or be charged with treason - in the end it's sufficiently likely this happened for many historians to agree, and to me it does seem likely as well.
Interesting how differently how one can view things.

I'd say, emulators are the easiest to defend. First and foremost, they emulated something which existed before. And the fact that there are different hardware and software emulations, several of them completely different to one another internally, proves that the program does not the intimate details of execution. Also, I read somewhere that especially if something existed before is a big difference when judging a GPL program. If a GPL program clones a previously existing behaviour, how can you with a straight face say an aggregate is derivative?

(Of course, there can be other things like GUI integration which muddies things up.)
You could maybe argue they weren't pushing a leftist agenda, sure. But they conveniently didn't fight for freedom of speech either. They were just very comfortable so long as the prevailing opinion on the wider media matched their beliefs. The "right" doesn't have this luxury.

Even the fringe left or far-left have a media "free pass" that they enjoy. And no one seems to understand this part of the criticism of the media by the right.
You are correct but I don’t think that invalidates the point that if you want safe abortions you need to make them legal and regulated.

I have no idea why they chose pills on the Internet but I know that more people will do it themselves if they can’t legally go to a healthcare provider.
This article is complaining that there's no enough Internet drama and trolls on Threads. Like, of all things to complain about, you chose this, dude?
Deref Confusion
Meta succeeded in cloning Twitter only because it picked up engineers who were let go after Musk acquired the company.

Dead weight, albeit dead weight who understood how Twitter works under the hood (the timeline data structure has confounded every would-be Twitter competitor until now, which is circumstantial but probable cause that the former engineers have transferred Twitter's fundamental trade secrets to Zuckerberg).

I still use Skype. That's my "landline" number I give to businesses. Some businesses can't text message my Skype-in number and I am OK with that. Recent updates are suggesting I ask "Bing" their LLM as presented in Skype questions but I have never messaged it.

Do others here still use Skype?
Misinformation is in the eyes of the beholder and the best way to dismiss misinformation is to let it shine under the light of scrutiny.

By banning it entirely, you let it fester which is where we're at today.
You should not publicly admit you are unconfigured, attackers might take advantage.
As a broad heuristic I think this fails because posts get downvoted or removed for a variety of reasons. One common reason is that it’s a cryptocurrency scam. Are those “more likely to be true?”
That's common?! Please share some examples, it's so common they must be easy to find I assume.

Leftist ideology promotes social and economic equality; it's surprising they "commonly" ridicule people that have suffered these things.
The climate is changing for the worse due to humans. However, the article has a selection bias:

In recent days, as the Earth has reached its highest average temperatures in recorded history, scientists have made a bolder claim: It may well be warmer than any time in the last 125,000 years.

It is almost like 130,000 years ago it was even higher than now[1]. It is not that the article is factually wrong, but it removes legitimacy from the Climate Change debate if we use biased or skewed datasets.

Surprised Ryanair isn't mentioned on this page, even if it isn't operating in the US.

It may not apply in the same way though, since the increased demand doesn't spill over into other airlines as much. The dramatic uptick in passenger numbers is there though.
That sounds like him all right. I didn't see an obvious way to use a different text file, but try this one: it's what I used for auditioning:

One morning in May 1979, Dan and Janet were going over a problem with the latest build when Grant knocked, “Hi, I can come back later if you're busy with something.” Dan looked at Janet to see if he should leave. “No, come in. Dan was just being a jerk as usual.” Dan tried to look hurt. Grant said, “I'm all settled in now. You should come up.” Dan looked confused, “Wait… I thought you lived up North.” “No, I transferred down here to the Tor project.” “Wow, I thought people only moved from South to North.” “I'm starting a new trend.” “Are you up on the second floor now?” “ Yep. Come up and visit sometime.” “What a thought. Is it like here?” Dan had never been on the second floor or anywhere else in the building. Grant went to the door and made a show of looking in both directions, “Looks very similar. Anyhow, what are you doing for no-driving day tomorrow?” He looked at Janet, who had a quizzical expression. “The company just said we're not supposed to drive alone tomorrow because of the gas rationing. They're going to station guards at the parking lots to check.” Dan already knew about this, but Janet didn't. “Don't know. Maybe Dan can come by and pick me up. Then, we'd be a carpool.” Grant flashed a look of displeasure for an instant but quickly erased it. He was hoping Janet would come to his house, and they could walk to work. “Do you live near Janet?” “Hermosa. Janet's right on the way.” Grant recovered, “I was going to suggest we meet at my house and walk to work. It's only about a half-hour walk.” Dan asked, “Where do you live? Hawthorne?” Grant looked vaguely insulted at the suggestion that he might live in Hawthorne, “Manhattan Beach, near Marine and Aviation.” “We could pick you up, too! You're right on the way.” Grant wasn't expecting this resolution, but there it was. He wrote his address on the whiteboard, which Dan copied down into his notebook. They agreed on a time tomorrow, and Dan and Grant both left.
So having been in many faangs/maangs (let us just say "modern" tech companies) I can very much attest to this sadly. "Impact" is used as a way to add a bunch of randomness and bias to a calibration so that you can decide how many fall into each rating bucket. Even worse is with promotions and promotion committees!
The term “VC” has been colloquially generalised to the point of uselessness. I’ve seen straight-faced professionals use it to describe angels, growth investors in public companies and lenders.

Broad rule of thumb in finance is to understand how the people giving you money make money. Traditional VC is high-risk / high-reward. If that’s not your strategy, don’t take VC. OP seems to be describing small businesses. These frequently do need to raise capital to get going, and they do it through banks and the SBA. (That market entirely dwarfs traditional VC.)

There are startups around the industry like working on GPS, Fleet management software or logistics startups helping e-commerce companies but none of them are into trucking as in none owns trucks.

Free speech is not enshrined in law the way you think it is. Try yelling how the Holocaust didn't happen in a German town square.

It also has consequences. You are literally saying things to people's faces, they can see yours. So if you start spouting your protected "kill all n*** and kikes" speech, they can follow you back home. Social media is populated by bots, sock puppets and impersonators, very different.

Unless you think the US is a saint and would never lie about enemy countries.

You seem to think the USA is just a monolith, and as such can be modeled as what the face of our government says. This is silly.

While it's true that business and especially the media is "in bed with" our government quite a lot of the time, it remains true that all have distinct interests.

There are various constraints on std::vector because of language in the standard which makes concessions for generic use that might not apply to your application. Small vector optimizations aren’t possible in std::vector, also some operations that could be done in-place can’t be. You also give up control of some meta-parameters and allocation strategies that may be more efficient for your use case.
