I can see Facebook the service not existing by then for sure. Facebook does have cash and a brief search shows about 54 billion in cash to 19 billion debt. So give or take there is a pile of 30 billion which if generating even 3.3 % on their cash that will be around a billion a year. One smart investment every 5-10 years would be enough to stay around.

Hi! I’m James, a 15+ year solutions architect and full stack engineer. I have primarily been working on high throughput systems for the likes of NVIDIA, TNW, and Mollie.

Until recently I was the CTO and cofounder of a startup (Affic).

I’m super interested in roles that allow me to collaborate on large impact architectural decisions and even lead the project through from start to finish. But I’m also an engineer (from infra to backend, my front end is rusty right now but I’m learning Vue) and building things is fun :)

I’m available immediately.
What's your suggestion to eliminate landlords from the equation, then? CCP-style regulations where there is no citizen landownership? Only the government is allowed to own land? Property owners should be forced to operate as nonprofits and maintain the property, but donate all profits to taxes?

Sounds like what is already happening with the Internet in general. Replace the term "AI" with "Internet" in the article and you get a cogent argument. We have already replaced too many human interactions with digital facsimiles with not so great results. AI is just going to be more of the same.

I don’t think there’s any value in comparing copyright with American drug laws. They’re not remotely similar and drug law in America is one of the most politically controversial arenas one can enter.

A much more fair comparison would be existing copyright law, which provides avenues for ownership without the ability to create new derivative works. It’s possible to expand these laws.

Chromebook is a google trademark, and chromebook-branded devices are tightly controlled by google. I believe that OEMs have to pick from a predetermined set of approved mainboard and CPU combos. OS images and Software updates are delivered directly from google.

The death of the liberal individual is where my agreement starts.. His conclusion for collective ownership of cloud platforms is uninteresting.

The web crushed and locks out many competing ideas that serve in their own way. The fear of domestic american terrorists has been used as a dogwhistle for total control of the web.

We need to get computing away from the cloud and invest in tech that allows communication and commerce in favour of conscious liberal individuals.

Private networks and technology that darkens the mind of the CPU, is the only way to re-establish conscious liberal control over one's electronic life. Black boxes (and more) are the way out, from mental serfdom to a machine owned and run by foreign interests.
Reminds me of the Swiss brand H Moser that makes a mechanical wristwatch which looks like an Apple watch

Yeah, I'm assuming there was some evidence or else every company wouldn't have reached the same conclusion. My hunch is that a lot of people who claim to work from home are not actually working at all. Employers are bullshitting about the reasons for return to office and employees are bullshitting about their desire to "work" remotely...
I'm really glad our kids will have high esteem about their inability to do algebra when it comes time to try to re-onshore our semiconductor design and manufacturing capabilities.
Someday a “reality check” situation happens. Might be writing a cover letter for their first job. Or trying to pass college-level calculus. But eventually, if someone doesn’t actually know how to read, write, or think logically it comes to a breaking point.

It doesn’t matter if a high school gave someone all As and a college gave out a degree in Community Building. The market judges everyone’s skills, and barring nepotism, the market will pay everyone what they are worth, which is sadly not much for a lot of people.

After all, if you had to hire someone, are you going to offer a job to someone who writes in broken emoji-gibberish and can’t multiply?

One time I got a resume from someone at a fairly well-regarded college for an internship, and the cover letter was a single run-on sentence without any capitalization. How could this person possibly succeed? How much money did they spend getting to this point of obvious failure? Very sad
Which is fine if you don't want deniability, and probably desirable for legal signatures. But that doesn't make it something with no value. Parent poster was claiming it made no sense to want authenticity and then publish the keys. I'm just pointing out that there is a desirable property which uses that approach. And HSMs can be (and commonly are) configured to store keys which can leave the device, though setting a specific time lock is not something I think many support.
Sorry, you lost me. What original post?

Actually I (we) don't ban people for political speech we disagree with. Politically passionate people assume we do, but this is an illusion—a total illusion, in fact. Everyone with strong feelings is certain that the mods are against them (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...) - it is a reflexive bias (no doubt hard-wired in all of us somehow) and people only ever perceive it as going in one direction: against them, their tribe, their side. Even their country. I got accused of being anti-British not long ago!

If you or anyone would like to see examples of how accurate these perceptions are, here's a list I put together a while ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26148870. I could update it, but why? The phenomenon never changes.

The short version is that they are not accurate at all about the mods (how could they be? they're entirely contradictory). But they are highly accurate indicators of the politics of the percevier.
I used it for several months.

For technical searches, Kagi was great. Usually more spot-on than Google, but not always.

For literally anything else, Kagi was not very good. Location-aware searches don't exist. Shopping results were also very bad. General searches (especially my favorite, site:Reddit.com searches) required several submissions and tweaks that Google didn't need.

I quit using it a few months ago. I will try it again in the future though.

> But... there's no way you could possible have 300k after 2 years of contributions to a 401k. If you were maxing it you'd have about 40.

This is a bit of an aside, but… this isn't quite correct.

Your (combined) individual contribution limit to a Traditional 401(k) and Roth 401(k) is $22,500 for this year. That doesn't include employer contributions. It also doesn't include after-tax contributions. The total combined limit for all contributions from all sources is $66,000 this year. So you could max out your Traditional 401(k), have your employer contribute $4,000, and then contribute an additional $39,500 to the after-tax portion.

The after-tax portion has no advantageous tax treatment whatsoever. It's identical to putting that same amount into a brokerage account… except for one detail. If you employer has a plan which allows for in-service distributions, you can immediately roll over after-tax contributions into the Roth portion of your account. This enables individuals working for companies with very good benefits packages to save an incredible $66,000/yr into tax-advantaged retirement accounts.

So assuming no growth, you can actually legally put $132,000 into a 401(k) in two years.

It is thoroughly fucked up that the majority of Americans who don't work for giant companies with gold-plated benefits packages only have access to $6,500 in tax-advantaged savings through IRAs.
30 days of vacation seems normal? Most places in finance you're going to get at least 20 days vacation and you get all NYSE holidays off typically. So that's 30. My first software job I had 23 days, could buy an extra week (So 28) plus 10 NYSE holidays so I had 38 total. Because of financial regulations, Finance/Insurance is are both typically in that 20+ range.
Government is the ultimate coercive monopoly; all coercive monopolies derive their power from the arbiters of force — the government.
TLDR - Focus on the journey

Quote: "Rather, you must understand that it is the building, not the result of that building, that matters.

Let’s break it down:

You spend 99.99% of your time on the journey of building a startup, and 0.01% basking in the temporary euphoria of “success,” such as selling it to someone else or ringing the bell on the morning of your IPO.

If that moment even comes, which it most likely will not. Often 100% of your time is spent on the journey, 0% in euphoric ecstasy."
I feel like there must be another part to the story. How did only one chrome user notice this?
In Pittsburgh too. For some reason the back entrance to my building (TCS hall) is a mecca for these little pests--to the point that a brick wall was literally covered in thousands of them. I ninja-side-kicked said wall and hit nothing but lantern fly. I must have killed almost a hundred with just a couple kicks. Crazy.

Clearly natural selection is at work because the left over ones are getting pretty good at jumping out of the way of a stomp.
Ahh yeah, I'm not sure I agree with the author there.
> Yikes, does it really deserve that much derision?

To my simple mind it had one job: allocate every grapheme a number (code point). Had it done that, the 1/2 of the article warning you about the difficulty of iterating and modifying code points would have disappeared.

But I guess it had a 2nd job: create a way of representing those numbers. The obvious way, u32, was difficult for ASCII users swallow as it quadrupled the space used for a string. The solution we settled on, UTF-8 didn't come form Unicode (or ISO). It came from Ken Thompson (the Ken Thompson, who created B, the predecessor of C), when he tired to make something workable for C.

Unicode was the entity that ballsed up both of those tasks. It was a fork of ISO 10646. It's main contribution over 10646 was UCS-2 - ie 16 bits per character. That decision was so bad it had to be abandoned. Later they introduced the grapheme clusters rather than allocating a separate code point for each variant. I have no idea why, as it makes the programmers task far harder. Maybe they ran out of code points. How could they possibly run out of code points, given U32 has 4 billion of them and UTF-8 could potentially have more? Because they had to kludge their way around the USC-2 mistake to create UTF-16, and it's limited 1 million.

Which leads us to the one thing in the article I disagree with:

> The only downside of UTF-16 is that everything else is UTF-8, so it requires conversion every time a string is read from the network or from disk.

No, that's not the only downside. There is one more: USC-2 / UTF-16 has the endianness problem. A 16 bit value needs two bytes to represent it, and you can write two bytes to storage in two ways - little endian or big endian. They didn't specify, so the same string can have two different representations on disk. They added the infamous BOM markers to distinguish between them.

I could go on, but colour me singularly unimpressed with this mob.
As a white, vanilla American, I have always understood desi to be very similar to "hick" or "country bumpkin", but from the subcontinent. (And usually applied to people who have never been anywhere near the countryside.)
Neat. Makes me wonder if maybe this is a great domain for generating synthetic data to train models to at least partially automate this process.
I hope this is a first of many and that genetic testing of more conditions gets approved soon.

I’m currently paying for a test suite during my IVF process that will also test for things like ADHD risk, diabetes risk, and low IQ risk[1]. I think soon it will be basically immoral to not do these type of screenings and it should be accelerated.

>IMHO breaking up corporations is a bit heavy-handed and not the only remedy available.

Respectfully disagree in Google's case. Indexing is not their only advantage - having full, unfettered access and control over email, maps, Android play, cloud, and the other myriad divisions plus knows what else via side deals is too much and fully justifies breaking up the business.

Best option right now is to have separate libraries. Adult accounts (password protected) see all libraries, kid accounts only see kid libraries.

It’s not great, having to SSH into the server and move files around as the kids get older. Works, but isn’t ideal. Really ugly results in some interfaces, but others (infuse IIRC?) at least provide combined “movie” and “tv” categories so you don’t have to try to remember which library some on-the-line film is in.

There are other approaches but they’re worse (more time-consuming and prone to letting things slip through)

We've seen plenty of examples of famous people suing companies for using their likeness in ads as if they are promoting a product. Tom Hanks' name is currently in the news for this.

If a company uses an actor's previously recorded dialog to be edited in a way that makes them sound in favor of terrorism on the attempt to have people think the actor said the words, we have issues on so many levels. If the dialog is chopped/re-edited to use as dialog for the same character in later works, then I really don't have issues with it.
