I dont agree that calling someone ignorant is a personal attack, or name-calling for that matter. if I had said "you're an idiot" it would be different, but ignorant is a fairly polite language, that somewhat distances from the sphere of "personal attack", and removes any accusation of motivation and bad intent entirely.
It's a little bit embarrassing that a Fortran compiler provides a shell for interactive use, yet the Rust project, with at least two orders of magnitude more development effort, does not.
If boycotting a human gathering due to its attendees being entitled asshats became a thing, I doubt there would be many events I could attend.

I mean, it's usually part of the premise of "worker owned" that there's going to be a heavy reduction in what you might kindly call administrative staff.
I follow another small project who had to stop shipping from the UK to the EU from Tindie, because Tindie wasn't handling the VAT requirements that brexit opened them up to.

I can't promise I'm up to date on that - that was two years ago, but they're still selling to the EU from their own site, and rest of world from Tindie. So I'm working to the assumption that they wouldn't still refuse EU sales from Tindie unless they felt they still needed to.
> Non train operators repurposed radio equipment to stop trains.

Exactly, see what I said above

>not necessarily a security breach

So in short, a security breach CAN be hacking (sometimes it’s not like mitm etc.), but every hacking is not a security breach. Say I used a company server to propagate another attack, that might be hacking by definition, but hacking a toaster with some rubber band to do X is definitely not a security breach.
Let me not mince words: People who are pro-Apple on HN have a long established history of not arguing in good faith. They belong to a cult, and viciously attack anyone who isn't part of the tribe; often attacking them for the same "crimes" that Apple itself is better known for.

Also, yes, I have a solution, the same solution everyone eventually follows: they switch back to Windows, they get angry at Microsoft for whatever reason (Microsoft comes up with a good one every 7-8 years), and then they switch permanently to Linux.

I used Linux as my primary, and only, desktop OS from when Windows 95 started shipping on PCs in 1996 to about 2015, where I allowed Windows back into my life. My laptop is a MBPR that very quickly proved that OSX is not, and never will be, prod ready (to my credit, I made it a year and a half before I gave up); it then got swapped to Windows, and ran that way for a few years until it now runs Linux.

From my vantage point, Linux adoption on the desktop is an Eternal September, and I'm fine with it. Everyone makes it here sooner or later if they're serious about computers and/or software development.

The solution to fixing Apple, however, is doing what Microsoft did: quiet fired/force retired Balmer, promoted a strong candidate from within, and let him right the ship; Apple needs to replace Tim Cook with whoever their equivalent of Satya Nadella is.
Section 230 of the CDA shields Google from liability for the links users choose to share using their services or not.
They can’t point to evidence of any improvement in productivity. I know from my sitting in the senior megacorp meetings planning these things there is no data backing the decisions. It’s almost entirely based on an emotional feeling that the corporate culture they grew up in won’t exist any more in a remote first culture. They’re likely right. But there’s no evidence it’ll impact productivity and there’s lots of evidence it’ll improve profits as real estate expenses and facilities are significant percentages of employee compensation.

On the other hand we had plenty of convincing data that when employees can choose their work style they perform much better individually and as a team.

My theory is that in five years when emotions have cooled and “culture” hand waving is a bit tired, and tax breaks have expired, cold hard money will win the argument and we will be in a “Bring Your Own Office” world.
> Helmfile complies to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 in which v0.x means that there could be backward-incompatible changes for every release.

You're not following semver if your software is used in production, and you recommend using it in production, but you label it 0.x.

I hate this cowardice of "we believe in semver" and "we stick to the area of it where everything goes". That's the exact thing it was created to avoid!

yeah you can only launder with real art not this digital bullshit
Not sure if we continued to improve from plan9, it's more like features were copied from plan9 but due to the fundamental differences in the foundation they aren't really the same and requires boilerplate to be actually usable.

Whoo-hoo! We get to buy IP on the cheap!
HIP is a good start since it has CUDA compatibility and open source from the beginning. The issue is that developers still might not invest in it until AMD shows that they’re willing to commit to it unlike their past projects. A lot of them have been burned on this front by AMD, but the open source designation should help a lot.
They’re not talking about fintech.. Quant shops write algorithms to trade the stock market and the salaries are more akin to Wall St. Very different than a company like Robinhood
I'd say the problem VCs have now is that the decade of nearly-free money is over and everyone has 5% risk-free return investment opportunities. At the same time the sky-high valuations of many startups were based on dreams that never panned out, and exits are both sparse and unlikely to match values of 2 years ago. So as an asset class, VC is much less appealing than it was before.

It's fun to see articles like this one popping up more frequently now that the market has shifted, which amount to a "back to basics" entrepreneurship push. In contrast, the last ten years saw tons of articles pushing founders to raise as much as possible as fast as possible.
Will no one think of the poor VCs!
Security researchers have a duty to users and industry first, then to the specific companies they are disclosing to. Most companies, without time pressure, do absolutely nil to fix the issues they are made aware of.

It's completely fine to discuss or request a different disclosure date when communicating with researchers. The delay is their protection against inaction.
What better period than a revolution for dogs to practice free love of owners and open loyalty relationships?

Xitter ditched thousands of devs and it still runs as a technical thing. The market for devs is over-saturated with boot campers and band wagoners due to the money printer bubble.

AI that can replace basic frontend work is not far off. AI that can generate 3D worlds is not far (I’m working on a version myself to later open source). AI may get facts in language wrong and never be AGI, but the color gradients and geometry we find makes acceptable UI is a finite set and deal with human UI glitches all the time.

Government and big tech are facing a prisoners dilemma with AI and trying to slow down the inevitable by disrupting progress. They’ll project memes that sound reasonable relative to spoken traditions in business and government, largely due to having no idea what else to do/say.

I say we all quit and focus on open source AI, let Jassy and Bezos work the warehouse. But I have enough years behind me to have just enough to have FU money. It’s easy for me to say that.
I don't think it's fair to say that. Teamshares will sell up to 80% to the employees. Many worker-owned cooperatives have laws specifying that shares can only be exchanged internally. Teamshares isn't particularly transparent on their actual structure.

So for instance, an employee(s) might sell their shares back to Teamshares or another agency, at which point the worker agency is diminished. Particularly in the former case.
I clicked it from my Fi device

4 is still far less effort than having to call Amazon to cancel your account (among the many providers that make opt out / cancel incredibly difficult)
I wonder why you believe the remaining 20% will require 200 million humans. What will those humans do that no AI could do or even hope to do?
> Imminent lawless action is a very narrow scope and does not overlap with the "fire in a theater" danger of false alarm.

Yeah, but “fire in a crowded theater” was dicta (a non-controlling tangent, basically) that (1) didn’t reflect the law as it existed prior to the case it was written in, (2) didn't illustrate or reflect the new rule in the case it was written in, and (3) was written in a decision that has since been effectively overruled and is widely regarded as one of the worst intrusion on core political speech ever allowed by the Supreme Court.

It is not, and never has been a guide to (or even accurate illustration of) unprotected speech. Despite how catchy it is and how popular it has become as something misused as if it was such a guide.
It sounds suspiciously like you measured the time to display 500k lines in the terminal instead of the time to ls.

> [...] lot of people that treat programming as a production line grind as opposed to a creative process have showed up, and totally skewed management expectations for how things could and should operate in the process, completely oblivious to the fact much of their work, if appropriately structured, should be done by the machines they spend their lives swearing at.

This is so beautifully put.
Government developed housing, improved infrastructure, ubi, universal healthcare, free tertiary and postgrad education for tax residents.
The headline is part of the story.
The other part of the story is "cooled as migration returned and a visa backlog cleared".

If you spend time talking to tech workers on visas in Australia, you'll find a common story, most will be working for a large contracting company, on a contract signed in their home country. Regardless of how Australian law should apply, this leaves many workers feeling vulnerable in their negotiations with their employers.

this is absolutely used as a lever to drive down tech wages in Australia, and it takes very nuanced communication skills to point out how damaging it is to our society to bring people into work but denying them access to full democratic rights and standing to negotiate their working conditions.
It’s been a looong time, but I [barely] remember camping in the 1970s, and having water filters that we used on creek water. These were replaceable units that fit into a sort of bicycle pump kind of thing.
Ask HN: What is with the Spotify price increase email?
Here is the email that I received from Spotify, just an hour ago:

-----

We want to remind you that the price of your Premium Individual is changing soon.

We’re increasing the price of Premium Individual so that we can continue to invest in and innovate on our product offerings and features, and bring you the best experience.

As you're already on Premium, you will pay CA$9.99 until your billing date in October when your subscription will go up to the new price.

Thanks for being a fan of Premium.

The Spotify Team.

So what is the new price?! Why not show the new price too in the email?

Here is the link from the email: https://support.spotify.com/us/article/price-updates/
That does not give the new prices either!

I feel like companies using these dark patterns do not understand how off-putting this is to customers (I'd assume most customers can see right through this dark pattern, and they'd be slightly more annoyed because of this).
Eh, SCOTUS happily sided with corporate profits over the lives of soldiers in Boyle v. United Technologies Corporation.
Given that the most common transition here is

I have 1 device -> I have 0 devices because I lost my phone

I think what you mean is "Google can do this for users with more than one device". Which they do.

E2EE has meaning, and being convenient to recover isn't in it.
Irrespective of this is right or wrong, the concern of the lawyers at google would not be "If Google _should_ be held accountable for the private activity of users", the concern of the lawyers will always be "what _could_ they be held accountable for."
> I'm not sure whether you are joking, or do you really think that the actual voting booths were held under a literal gunpoint.

Igor Girkin, the person who was there and ran all of this disagrees with your opinion he said that they held people at gun point to make sure that the judiciary voted to annex Crimea to Russia.
Texas and Florida give free bus rides to illegal immigrants who want to travel to self-described “sanctuary cities”. How does that relate to homelessness?

Neat talk but like... doesn't it all seem convoluted? What is the function of a Rube Goldberg web service? To allow it be made of anything?

The problem with using Rust in Go is that you entirely miss all the parts you don't use Rust; you get the VM overhead of WASM so it kills Rust perf; you most likely introduce problems at the boundaries of Rust/Go.

Again it's a neat idea but why in all things sane would anyone intentionally do this outside of puzzle-solving satisfaction?
Sounds like a great way to turn a business into even more of a hyper-politicized environment than it already is. It becomes not about what you can do, but who you make like you.
how does outside investment work - do they just get a share of the profits, similar to worker-owners but without voting rights?

and what about sweat equity - how do founders get compensated for starting the thing and working for free?
Someone needs to tell Google what "Opt-in" and "Opt-out" means.

No, if you automatically enroll me into sharing my data with 3rd-parties, that is NOT opt-in. That's completely disingenuous.

I have very little skin in the game and certainly haven't dabbled in the NFT world. And I “don’t like” the idea that a regulator can essentially leverage ambiguous language to prosecute after the fact just to leave innovators on their toes. This is required to achieve your goal of innovators asking “should I be doing this”, because otherwise there are clear guidelines and nobody is left wondering.

Nothing has changed about the legal system, you’re right, but you expressed a desire to live in a more ambiguous regulatory regime where people are unsure whether they’re committing crimes or not because we’re okay with a changing interpretation of how regulations apply. That rubs me the wrong way and frankly feels pretty dystopian.

Yeah I agree that practically it’s good to not have a bunch of buffoons running around doing quasi-legal securities offerings by a different name. But would it really have hurt to have the SEC say “we’ll be applying the Howey Test to NFTs, if you plan to sell one we’d recommend consulting a lawyer versed in securities law before proceeding”. Were consumers really damaged when their founders keys weren’t worth anything? Who in their right mind even treats a founders key as an honest security? Seems like there’s some blame on both sides here.

It’s conversely not great to have consumers not using their brains, applying zero scrutiny, and buying into whatever the new street fad is then wailing for the Uncle SEC when their little crypto tokens became worthless.

In short, I don’t think you need an ambiguous regulatory regime to achieve a climate of healthy innovation. You just need the SEC to not drag its feet on action and a little up front “hey don’t be idiots we consider this stuff a security <insert reminder of penalties for violation of securities law> so do your homework”.
Nope, I don't know anyone who has access to the 32k model. The best that's widely available is GPT 3.5 16k.
They don’t get all the stress of owning a business per-se because they most likely vote on a CEO/a council to handle that. Just like the Walmart heirs aren’t stressed about owning a business because they vote on a CEO to do that part, or how you as a voting citizen don’t get all the stress of running a country.

It is true though that an employee will be much more personally invested in that kind of voting than a typical investor given that’s they essentially can’t diversify like an investor can, without being so rich that they make more from investments than working anyway. And that they may choose to give themselves the option of direct democracy to varying degrees instead of representative democracy. In a standard white collar corporate environment that could kick up workplace politics to insane levels.
I think that's a subjective interpretation.

Others would define a cloud server as any server that someone else owns and you don't have physical access to it.
iirc, it's cpni compliant.
I echo a lot of what the other people in here are saying.

I'm also pretty convinced that AI won't replace software dev any earlier than it will replace the majority of corporate jobs, and at that point everyone has a problem.
All the vultures suddenly died because farmers began treating their animals with a new drug that was harmless to the animals, but which was deadly to vultures that ate animals who had been treated with it. After all the vultures died there was less efficient scavenging of dead animals, more polluted water, and more disease.

The delicate balance of Nature was upset.

> Gitaly is a Git RPC service for handling all the git calls made by GitLab

So I think this means that a major piece of gitlab now supports sha256 git repos? But probably not everything and therefore we can't actually push sha256 git repos to gitlab yet?

I like to call what I do "taking the coward's way out" -- using FreeIPA

My team setup the infrastructure in question and I've been too slow to learn it. FreeIPA is nice for quick/easy deployments.

I'm not sure how well it "scales", but it's great for getting comfortable with the "Domain Language" (sorry, pun)
I doubt that applies if they have a court order or request from the FBI to block certain domain names or links.

If you had a court order or "request for cooperation" from the FBI to block that domain name, would you do it?

Australia also relies on migration to keep wages down. This was paused during Covid, so there is more supply of people now.
TBH it reads somewhat like an OG Roots Revival of Burning Man VS third Gen Trust Fundies:

In recent years, Burning Man has drifted from its hippy roots and become better known for luxury RVs, wild orgies, and Silicon Valley bros.

Protestors from the Seven Circles –a coalition of activists representing the climate groups Extinction Rebellion, Rave Revolution, and Scientist Rebellion – demanded that Burning Man ban private jets and single-use plastics, as well as unlimited generator and propane use.

What would Mary Grauberger and Larry Harvey have to say about the "radical self-expression" of the climate activist protesters?

On brand or not?
> A large, poorly performing fund (1.5x) pays its GPs dramatically more than a smaller, higher performing (4x) fund. Stunningly, the large fund GPs would earn dramatically more on simple management fees alone (i.e. even if the fund was 0x, the GPs earn $200M). Granted, the $1B fund may have more GPs, but the payout differential is eye opening.

I've been re-reading this for the last 10 minutes and this is not an explanation for why the large fund would perform worse, which is what I was promised.

Is this an incentives argument? The large fund GPs are not incentivized enough because they earn a lot anyway? But their collective performance IS(supposedly, under a meritocracy) the funds returns and they would earn $600 million in carry if they would 4x. This just doesn't explain WHY large funds supposedly do worse than small funds, just that supposedly they do.
archive.is my dude
Well, yeah. That has been the trade-off forever. You get whatever is reasonably easy to make.

Over all users seem to prefer something over nothing when it comes to software.

This isn't the quality standard I have, but a lot of devs do and I find it pretty understandable considering the required trade-offs.
Thanks, glad you like the site! Yes that is correct—all of the books I sell are in the public domain.

I use Sendgrid to send emails, which has worked great so far although it took a while to get my account fully set up.
