For me the deal breaker is that it doesn’t use native UI elements on macOS which means patterns such as invoking menu items using the keyboard behave differently.
Chromium crashes for me after running for a while with 10+ tabs. I had more than 500 open in Firefox and it ran well.

Also the ability to add proxies to multi account containers is great when I am trying to access the 3-4 websites that are only available in 1 country or are blocked in the EU. I can even force a certain domain to open in that container so I don't think about it.
My experience also. Whenever a site doesn't work I try it in chrome and bing -- and it doesn't work there also.
What I would like to see is a system where object-orientation is emergent from a more set-oriented/relational model. I haven't put my finger on what exactly this is yet, but maybe it's something like "methods" really being a kind of predicate-dispatch over matching tuples.

So a "class" (and object identity) is really telling the system: when you see attributes X, Y, Z bundled together as a result of a query, here is a set of behaviors that you can apply on those tuples.
> it no more "copies" original work than I do when I tell you about the news article I read today

When you tell people about some news article you read earlier you repeat it exactly verbatim? You also give this out to potentially millions or hundreds of millions of people for commercial purposes?

Is LinkSoap a terrible name for a startup?
I am building a service for helping to detect broken internal links and suggest new internal cross-linking opportunities. I am consider going with the name LinkSoap, and I would like to get some feedback if others think it is a terrible/okay/good name?
No, because this is an ad disguised as an article. You are now supposed to leave your job and apply to work there, and then, when you are hired and spend a bit of time working there, you get the Haskell course.

This is basically my problem with the Bud Light boycott.

There was a time when it was popular for its cheap and consistent qualities.

But now there are so many options, and so many customizations and flavor with relative cost that it’s clear the brand was going to die anyway.

That doesn’t excuse their piss poor messaging that was the real grievance most former drinkers had. Insulting and attacking your primary customers defensive someone who is never going to be your customer is just not a good move.

But as the effectiveness, it was a prime situation, not necessarily the world’s most effective boycott.
It's kind of fascinating to read but is there a significant takeaway from this? It's managers discussing metrics, plans and OKRs.

Is that wrong? I don't know the logic of the game, but a 20:10 battle can very well have different odds than a 2:1 one.
I'm not aware of anything so convenient and learler-friendly as Borland IDEs were.
Pretty much every advanced economy is seeing stagnant population growth. Integrating immigrants is one of our most important skills and we need to keep practicing it.
It's missing webnfc support which means it's not an option for our web based inventory tracking system.
I have the opposite experience. Sometimes I see tabs from some of my devices, sometimes all of them, sometimes a few of the tabs and sometimes all of them. If I want to “hand off” browsing to another device I pretty much always have to use AirDrop.

I'm surprised one can write an entire article on browser sync and not mention Safari, Chrome's main competitor.
I would disagree and claim the patent office is "incentivized to ignore quality".

The clerks are expected to do a certain amount of work per week and granting a patent counts as more work than denying a patent.
How Does a Mind Change? What is the point of writing on issues?
> It just does not matter very much, Russia would not have invaded Sweden anyway.

Swedish military experts think otherwise. If Russia were to invade Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, then one could reasonably expect that they would close the Suwalki gap that connects Lithuania and Poland, to cut the land route between them end rest of Europe, and invade the Swedish island of Gotland, to prevent any supply over sea or air routes. It would require an effort comparable to Normandy landings to liberate the invaded countries; unlikely to happen.

Hence the Swedish reaction, to prevent that chain of events from starting in the first place:

> During the 20th century, infantry, artillery, air force and naval elements were stationed on Gotland as part of Sweden's defense system, until all permanent military units were stood down in 2005. With tensions in Northeastern Europe and Russia escalating in 2014–2015, the Swedish government has taken a new interest in remilitarizing the island. And in September 2016 regular troops were once again stationed on the island, albeit as an interim measure until a permanent garrison could be reestablished. As of 1 January 2018 Gotland has re-established the Gotland Regiment.

And even larger policy shift followed the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, from entry into NATO to establishment of joint air force command for Norway, Sweden and Finland - because the scale of Russian aggression against Ukraine made abundantly clear that none of them would be equipped to fight something like that off alone, and that Putin was willing to unleash it without provocation.

The typical "america bad" narrative pushed by useful idiots completely fails to explain these developments.

This is the most clueless take here.

It is so obviously not zero sum. From Google to Yahoo to eBay to Palantir. None of those hundreds of thousands of jobs would exist without immigrants. Or they would be overseas.

I'm sorry for your friends who cannot get tech jobs. It's time to level up their skills. No competent developer can't find a job in this economy.

Stop blaming immigrants for your own shortcomings.
More and more Amazon just seems like a "you're on your own" scam site. I can't figure out what I'm getting anymore.

Half the listings are sponsored ads when I search. I searched for "Lego" this past Christmas and on the first page I got a bunch of products that were in what looked just like Lego boxes with Lego fonts and numbering ... but were not made by Lego and were clearly made to deceive.

I noticed some items I get price alerts now will drop low but only one vendor is actually offering the low price ... who has terrible ratings. But you can't actually know that is happening unless you click through the UI a bunch, if you just buy it you'll see the overall rating that is fine... but you get it from some vendor with terrible ratings.

I bought something last spring that was never delivered, turns out it was some random Chinese company. The item even says it wasn't delivered and yet I couldn't get a refund if I went through the order status page. It just sent me to one automated customer service who sent me to a different customer service who sent me back.

Someone on HN had to tell me to go to the front page and contact "that customer service".... wtf

I used to go to Amazon because it offered better selection and quality products that my local stores didn't sell. Now it's just low quality garbage and scams.
Then we should be focused on policing the usage of the model, not the training of it.

That's the point at which infringement occurs in your example. It's not the memorizing that's the infringement, it's the reproduction from your memory.

We shouldn't be regulating your hippocampus encoding the book, but your reproducing the book from that encoding.

Similarly, we shouldn't be regulating the encoding of material into the NN, but the NN spitting back out the material.
What was the real reason?
Does anyone send 50+ personal emails a day? If it takes 5 minutes to write each one, that's over 4 hours doing nothing but composing emails!?

Maybe if you're sending party invitations or something? But that's got to be once or twice a year, surely.
Unemployment != underemployment.

So the unemployment rate in your first article is not relevant, missing labor participation rates etc.

The second article is about median wages of people who are already in jobs categorized as stem. Same with the third, which is also only about the derivative.

> Where, exactly?

The most prominent segment can be found by dropping the engineering and tech. Biology, math, physics, chemistry, etc. However even in engineering we find that the top grads move into software or finance.
How is this a third option? Input/output is exhaustive by definition.

Your possibility sounds like the overarching theme of “breaking the status quo”.
It's definitely formulaic, and I often feel like there's obvious plot beats, jokes, etc. that were inserted by committee or to match somebody's checklist.

Looking back, the original Star Wars movies were clunky and had plot problems galore -- but they were fun and they had heart and something novel to offer visually and narratively. Lucas couldn't write dialog for shit, but the pacing, casting, story, and eye candy made up for it by a long shot.

(BTW, I thought Endgame was pretty good. There's at least one bit that made me cheer out loud. Maybe I'm just easy, but Cap's big moment was worth the price of admission for me alone.)
Ah, I see. Without seeing hands in the video, it's hard to see every last brushstroke – but that's how tokens are deducted, per-brushstroke. They're also used when you hit the dice button for a random seed, or change the prompt, etc. Anything that causes the rainbow loading indicator to show up and generate a new image is going to deduct a token.

Totally get it – and it's fair feedback, and I anticipated that figuring out the right pricing model would take a little time and feedback. I'd rather have the wiggle room to come down on cost once I'm sure that my calculations on hard-costs are on target.

That was the motivation for offering a $1 token pack – provide anyone a chance to at least play around with it, have some fun with the app, get some feedback.

Good idea to list the output size – hoping to have some additional options there soon as well.

As far as copyright of the generated imagery, it's linked in-app under the terms, etc. (Worth reading, and I can make it more prominently accessible on web, etc.) Gist is that whatever the user makes is theirs to use, but the app doesn't make any claims or guarantees – ultimately the user's responsibility to ensure their work doesn't violate someone else's copyright. Still waiting for my coffee to kick in so probably worth saying that the actual terms in the app superseded any early-morning Internet forum replies of mine :)
Midjourney is just a tool. It looks to me like the author is the one using the tool for copyright infringement.
I'm curious, do you have a current favorite way of implementing UI, particularly for desktop applications, that isn't obfuscated and doesn't violate the rules of the host language? Or do you find that Jetpack Compose is a good choice overall despite those shortcomings?
When I was in University I took a course that focused on a set of problems to be solved. Each assignment in the course was solving them using a different language. Thinking back the languages were:
- C
- C++
- ASM
- Haskell
- Lisp
- Java
- Eiffel
- Modula
- Prolog
- Perl

It was an awesome course, you learned over time how some languages were better suited for certain tasks than others.

It reinforced the idea of using the right tool for the job. While a solution was feasible or verbose in some of the languages in others it was simple or concise.

I also remember thinking Java was really nice to use. Lives the automatic garbage collection and not having to think about dangling pointers.

Also that Perl was frustrating.

You are forgetting the law of supply and demand. More supply and the same demand leads to lower prices.
My backup commuter vehicle is a inexpensive (but modified) off-highway motorcycle for exactly this reason.

Sure, you have to have a small 'bug-out bag' (in this case a belt pack) with spare parts (bolts, belts, master links etc.) and some critical sockets if you want to take a ride without fear, but beyond that the thing is a tank. Even the most critical of problems can be fixed for minimal expenditure at Harbor Freight and/or a local motorcycle parts shop.

Aside from being fun, and confusing people every time they see it in the parking lot next to the Tesla/Rivian/Mercedes AMG crew, it is serious peace of mind that I've always got motorized transport that won't fail me.
And what happens when it gets dark? Solar is cheap, storage is not.
Sure, although I think the utility of a communications network capable of receiving and sending documents within a country is very well proven to be a benefit to society, so any comparison to something less battle tested seems unnecessary.

It makes no sense that in the physical world, we entrust government with identity verification and transmitting correspondence, but that trust is somehow lost in the digital world.

I'd love to hear any feedback on the project if you have any.
> Not bad, not closed source, but not FOSS. Although I don't believe you quite meant it like that based upon the essay.

Oh, I did.

But my point in the essay is that FOSS can actually be bad for end users because companies can make a lot of it proprietary. Actually proprietary. And they do.

This is worse for users than copyleft SAMS.

The people who keep claiming that SAMS gives less control to end users are dealers.
It's unsurprising that "genuinely great minds" raised in a religious tradition would try to apply the tools of their trade to justify what would otherwise surely appear to them to be a very strange and illogical set of beliefs, but that doesn't mean that "many philosophers find it intriguing", and certainly not currently.

Russell's ultimate view of it, as I'm sure you know, was to summarise it as "cases of bad grammar", which is also how it appears to this (I happily admit) non-genuinely-great mind: all it is demonstrating is that English is not a formal language.
It’s made more confusing by the fact that the comment omits all the S models from the list of unsupported models (along with the iPhone 4 for some reason).

So at a glance one could assume that the XS is lumped in with the X just like the 6S is lumped in with the 6.

Both you and the blog are conflating leaving the Bay Area with losing your job.

Yeah. A lot of people are leaving because of the housing insanity. That doesn't mean they're leaving teach and losing their jobs. There is zero evidence for that.

This isn't evidence for any impact on jobs. It's evidence for the mismanagement of the Bay Area and California as a whole.
“Most people start businesses simply because they don’t like working for someone else.”

Fog of the future not withstanding; most people aren't going to have been using IDEA since 1.0.

If you learned Java between 2001-2012 then the default was Eclipse or netbeans.

So you should not be comparing IDEA from 2001 to today (or any individual IDE), you should be comparing the IDE landscape or ecosystem of 2001 to today, and part of that analysis should be a requirement to weight IDE's based on popularity and the recommendations of established institutions (academia, companies).

I am a life-long vim-er and I only use probably 30% of its features and thats ok. I learn new things all the time, sometimes adding them to my repertoire, sometimes not. There's so much time that can be wasted if you mess around with configuring tools but either fail to remember to use them or fail to get them set up. I wanted to set up ctags and tried a few times, but fell short of memorizing the forward-back shortcuts and got frustrated at the delay when it goes off scanning my HDD instead of the local code 1-2 directories away. so I just gave up.
For those confused: Unfortunately, the US focuses on your origin (where you were born) rather than your nationality. alisahik is an Australian citizen, but was not born there. My guess is he was born in India, which has an absurdly long queue in the US immigration process.

Agreed. Until and unless i can get a e-ink/e-paper display (minimum A4 size, 13" or more is better) which will not cause eye strain/fatigue it is impossible to read any kind of technical book electronically for long periods of time. And this i say as a person who owns a 27" iMac, a iPad, a Nexus10 and a couple of 10" and 16" inch laptops. I have a huge collection of technical books as pdfs which i only consult on my devices. For serious studying of any books i always get a paper copy; nothing else works.

It’s honestly things like this that make me respect (more than I already do) and stick with Firefox. They do not need to do that and in a lot of ways it’s just sticking their neck out for other developers/their users for very little gain on their part. Obviously, there are some benefits for them, but I think most people would agree that it’s mainly a risk at the end of the day.
All that test confirms is that when every company requires them to do business, one can no longer accomplish anything financial without submitting an SSN to a third party. I guess one could choose to only ever be self-employed, take no loans, and use Mattress Bank.

> The US is and always has been a country of immigrants

Settlers founding new places are different from immigrants. The US was created by British settlers. Its language, laws, political system, and to a great extent its culture are British. If you look at various statistics, the Anglo countries share strong commonalities, even though people of British descent are now a distinct minority in the US (while being a majority in Britain, Canada, and Australia).

Over time, other people moved in. Those were immigrants. But for a long time it wasn’t immigration as we know it today. Many of them created greenfield communities, settling large swaths of the Midwest, etc. Those communities were pockets of Germans, etc., in a country that was still distinctly British.

“Immigration” since the 20th century looks quite different again. Immigrants aren’t founding new greenfield communities, they are moving into (and changing) existing ones. The place where I grew up is culturally unrecognizable now thanks to immigration (both of foreigners and of people from other parts of the country).
