I detailed the reasons at length in the issue thread. It might not be obvious if you haven’t seen the code examples, but once you see it, it’s pretty clear.

I also completely disagree with your reasoning above.

The fact that many people believe or do some thing does not mean that “by definition” that that thing is not obviously stupid. E.g., inhaling glue, smashing things with one’s head, “the secret”, mukbang videos… the list is nearly endless.

Finally, “the principle” behind Prettier is also flawed when taken to the extreme they do. Paraphrasing my final comment on the github issue,

> It can be used to defend literally any styling choices, even ones that deliberately misaligned conditional branches with others at its logical level (much like prettier already is doing on a small scale in the example I referenced).

> Yes human beings are adaptable, but some things are easier to adapt to than others. It's objectively easier to spell Spanish than English, for example. It pays off to have consistency at a deeper level than simply making the same idiosyncratic choices each time an identical situation comes up.
Sundar should get laid off. He is not a bad CEO per say.

But he is a bad CEO in the current context.

Google is not innovating, they are slowly losing on all front.

I think Sundar is too conventional.

Remember when you were a kid and wanted a dog, and your parents (good ones) tried to emphasize that your ideas weren't realistic because you wouldn't put in the effort and responsibility required to have one?

This is the same scenario except your kid thinks he can more reasonably trick you into shouldering responsibility.

I wouldn't even sweat "learning to code" as a concept for his enrichment because A) he won't be able to meaningfully do so at his age and B) there's literally a zero percent chance "coding" survives AI.

Such a strange thing that people forgot how to parent.
Sundar. You might not like Zuck's vision but he has a vision. Sundar has a vision too which is that he can freeze things just like it is forever but that's really a choice to die.

Conservatism is a better fit for Microsoft because their users have "Who moved my cheese?" as a motto. Microsoft also mostly gets paid by its users through some circuitous path, Google's ad based model has dangerous conflicts of interests built into it quite fundamentally.

I lately read this Wikipedia article

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittification

and really appreciated its viewpoint but I am wondering if in the long term it is going to be another scenario like

https://www.amazon.com/Innovators-Dilemma-Revolutionary-Chan...

that is, so far we haven't seen platforms that have decayed suffering from it but there has to be some limit at which customers are so frustrated that the two sided market is broken and my guess is that when that happens a company like Google will go from "bad to nonexistent" in "internet time".
I can tell you from personal experience that you cannot, unless you want to wait till the next year (and sign up during open enrollment).

But it's not like cancer moves fast or anything right? You can just wait, nothing bad will happen... /s

I'm a bit salty, I lost my dad to cancer last year and he was on a bullshit co-op plan that delayed treatment and made the whole experience even worse than it already was. Would insurance have saved his life? I can't answer that but the delays (before he got real insurance) couldn't have helped.
One thing that really struck me recently was an article about the commencement of a massive solar and transmission project in the American Southwest. Total cost for the panels and the transmission lines to deliver the power was something like $11 billion for (I think) around 3 GW of nameplate capacity.

Assuming you could site a new nuclear plant somewhat closer to an interconnection point, it seems to me like even modern, over budget, uneconomical nuclear is not all that much more expensive than massive scale renewables. And the capacity factor can’t be beat.

If the west could build even a handful of additional plants after Flamanville, Vogtle and the handful of others, is there any reason to think that the next tranche of plants is just hopelessly uneconomical with renewables?

To me it seems like even if nuclear is twice as expensive than renewables plus transmission, that’s a reasonable price to pay for the base load generation capabilities and diversification of the overall energy mix.
Yes, but even 20+ years ago when I worked for a large Silicon Valley company: most of the people I interacted with were in different buildings so it was easier to email them than to go find them. Then we acquired a team in another country. When I went remote in 1999 one of the reasons I could justify that was that when I drove to the office every day I usually spent each day communicating by email and phone with colleagues.

Yes. My then 10 y.o. son also wanted to build a game. At least that's what he told me. So we went out together to learn how to do it in Roblox. We eventually learned we needed to be coding in the Lua programming language, which is by itself cool as we are Brazilians. We took some classes together but then I saw my son suffering as he tried to get along with abstractions and the development process itself. He quickly found out it had nothing to do with playing games! So the lesson we learned was, as the parent commented, my son and I just wanted to do something fun together. That's basically it.
Yeah I'm in the process of migrating away because of it. Sigh. Gandi had a good run.
Then maybe one monolithic video platform that serves the streaming needs of an audience the size of YouTube's isn't a good business plan.

For decades the mantra of Silicon Valley has been "eat the world" on a given service you provide, alright, fine. Then provide it. And if you can't provide a service to billions of people without the quality of said service going into the shitter, then the suggestion I have for you is to not eat the world.
I'm in Estonia. Grew up here as well.

Nothing you said is true here. Not sure which EU country you might be in, maybe Hungary judging by the references to corruption.
I understand what you’re saying but it seems like the issue here is that the only scope that allows create also allows delete: https://developers.google.com/calendar/api/auth. A proxy service that could reduce the scope of the endpoints you explicitly allow would be helpful here as you mentioned.
It's important to note that for interactive applications, queues can have surprisingly little capacity and still provide all the demand levelling necessary. Technically this depends on the variance of the arrivals, but in my practical experience, even quite bursty arrivals are often well-behaved enough that a second or so of queue capacity is sufficient.

Any time I've had queues need more than a second of capacity has been when the system is broken and user experience has already degraded to the point where it might be better for the median user to shed a small amount of load to get back to a sub-second queue.

(In batch processing where you aim for maximum throughput, obviously you need a long queue to make sure you never run out of job.)
I'm not surprised but everytime I notice a reference like this I love to read about it and find similarities with the show
I absolutely agree.

Free markets are a battle ground. Businesses should use what ever advantage they have over each other to get ahead.

This is why I am very against people that often beg regulators to come and reduce on the so called "unfair" business practices.

The free market is not some place where businesses gather together around a fire singing Kumbaya Or as brothers in arms breaking bread.

This confusion as to why businesses should be left to fight each other is what I mostly disagree with people on.
US seeks proposals for domestic HALEU production
It is better as consumers to let them fight it out. Competition is typically in the consumers favor so it should be encouraged. I don't need to be in favor of Apple, Epic Games or Spotify to want them all to fight it out and reduce the rent seeking gains for everyone.
Why hasnt this triggerred a Class Action Lawsuit?

Your mistake is characterising all overloads as the same. Adding a queue to a system that is consistently overloaded won't solve the overload, but many overloads are temporary/bursty, like the Slashdot/HN effect. Queues absolutely do solve these kinds of overloads simply by increasing latency, assuming increased latency is an acceptable choice in your context, of course.

Because you refuse to employ full-time staff at reasonable salaries, thus encouraging more nurses to become "travelers" getting paid 5x+ on short-term, renegotiable contracts.

When un[der]appreciated nurses find out that their hospital sucks (after having literally been bled dry of funding, talent, and ability to provide actual healthcare), it is a quick revolt into contract nursing.

I LOVE NURSES. To make a nurse hate you, is not an impossible task dear Healthcare Admin.
I'm not super educated on security stuff, but would airplane wifi add any significant risk?

I'd think that as long as your laptop isn't already compromised, and you don't need to use someone's proxy server, HTTPS would be secure enough. I.e., no worse than doing it from home.

I'd use one of the existing game toolkits that you can build a 3d game on top of, not try to build anything from scratch. If you want to go vintage this was a DOS app for creating DOOM style 3D games.

I take your point. How well this is understood is an empirical question. I retract my claim that it holds for "almost everyone" from the broader population.
It’s a nice closed loop now so it’s inevitable that ai generated content will win google search. One can pump out content, see how it scores, and iterate until they have an ai trained to top the google search results. It’s already so frustrating looking for real info. Soon it will be impossible.
The community is still around. Eventually the online services will be shut down, which is just...super sad. But the game itself will always be available, which includes the creation tools of course.

Small numbers. My hospital bill was almost 8 figures before insurance. Insurance contract rates down to high six figures. That is basically instant bankruptcy for most folks.

Health insurance can also be free for low income folks, so it is incredibly dumb not to have it.

I mean, it wouldn't exactly be unprecedented. New cities spring up and old ones die every few generations or so when we go through logistical churn. When the old passenger rail system died off, ghost towns emerged. When the old pre-interstate highway system was obsoleted by the interstate system, ghost towns emerged. And I imagine as we shift the way we build things and where value is generated geographically in this country, ghost towns will probably emerge. The nature of low-density suburbs and exurbs is that it doesn't take a lot of people leaving before they become unsustainable.

I feel like Americans should be more used to this.
They still have to pay the commission if the user does so within seven days.
First step: study the game and learn what it's about. You use of the phrase "whatever it is" suggests that you've not done this yet. Showing interest in the game is probably more important than actually building it.
I see stories of people who have worked remote at a company for a year or so, and still have yet to see the faces of any of their coworkers. I get that dev work has a disproportionate amount of basement dwellers, but man, that is still so crazy to me.

In my opinion, the language that comes closest to K's functionality and is also understandable by mere mortals is K itself. It is obviously extremely close to K's functionality and is a very simple language, the only reason it doesn't seem simple is that most people are used to verbose languages. A couple of days of practice is enough to make K readable, in my experience.

Also, I am constantly amazed at how concise K is, easily rivaling not only conventional languages but also much larger array languages like APL or J. Arthur Whitney's taste in selecting primitives is out of this world.

The corporations that are most often really loved a sports teams.

They are often profit (or often loss!) making corporations, and they are something people really love. Yes, the owners sometimes love them too, or are in it for the prestige rather than the profit, but they are still legally corporations and many are, or have been, either listed or owned by listed companies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Publicly_traded_sport... for some of those that are publicly traded.

> For example, if you are that company's employee and you have been well-provided with means to live a comfortable life while also being aligned with your values, I can't even think how you will have an ounce of contempt for that organization.

The company does not return your feelings, and you'll be shocked when the layoffs come out of nowhere.
As another user pointed out, this is entirely based on the duration of the overload. If the overload is short, then queues absolutely do help smooth this over for the user.

If demand is consistently exceeding capacity, the system will fail regardless which method is used to compensate (queues, shedding, back pressure, etc). Saying that a queues as a whole serve no purpose in an overload is only considering the catastrophic scenario, there is a lot more types of overloads that can happen depending on the system.

Ran into this at work last week. A team wanted to add an in-mem cache to speed things up. However, they have no way nor plan to measure its effectiveness. I asked how they will know the cache hit ratio or otherwise know how the queue is working and they pushed back that such monitoring would be work they weren't planning. Bananas.

> So what you are saying is that it is impossible to regulate?

No, it would be difficult to regulate, at scale. Just like most things are difficult at scale and history is awash with corporate whining about how doing anything at all to mitigate the harm they do will annihilate them, capitalism and the concept of the free market.

I wouldn't try to implement anything yourself. Use one of the game building toolkits already out there.

If you don't mind going vintage, this is one I used many years ago, it's for building 3D games similar to DOOM, for DOS. You might need a dos emulator to run it in if your OS is too new to support it. Fun to play with though.

> Trading off new requests for current requests is, in my experience, a valid strategy for eCommerce for example. We called it "quenching".

I'm not sure in which direction the trade happens but it sounds like you're dropping older requests in favour of newer. I agree, this has worked well for me also. Surprisingly often the oldest item in the queue is the one for which service will be least valuable.

I thought the studies show that AI is most beneficial for low-knowledge staff by rendering implicit knowledge explicit; it seems like the argument should go the other way: with AI assist, they have even less of a reason to benefit from shoulder surfing.

I don't think you can blame this on Reddit alone, as basically all online spaces (and sadly, some offline spaces too) have become incredibly toxic in that they constantly push divisive topics even when many participants would much rather avoid them. It happens even here on HN (covid, twitter, Israel/Palestine) and definitely on Twitter, in any news org's comment section, etc.

The thing that changes is often the exact flavour of the groupthink, but even on Reddit itself, this depends heavily on the subreddit. r/worldnews, for example, skews mostly pro-Israel and is also one of the larger subs.
That is however, quite specifically, not end-to-end encryption. The whole entire point of end-to-end encryption is that no intermediary gets to see the unencrypted content.
Funny that Epic, Spotify etc don't complain about the same cost levied by other platforms like Playstation, Xbox etc?

Usually the strategy (mostly, but hardly exclusively, followed by patent and other trolls) is to start with the smallest, weakest participants and then use them as a precident and then work your way up.

Starting with the richest of them all with decades of litigation experience seems foolish, and indeed it hasn't worked for Epic. Also a lot of people admire Apple, so why face that in the court of popular opinion when you could have build the case that they are the bad guys?

FWIW: I think Sweeny is a dick, that Spotify is financially precarious, and Apple is basically a great white: efficient, relentless, and not your friend.

No, but Spotify is known for happily starving artists (via their label payouts) to increase its bottom line. For example, Apple Music pays nearly double the royalties Spotify does.
The just course of action is both Apple and Spotify destroy their market and we go back to buying mp3s and FLAC files which aren't rent seeking.

In this metaphor, you're the coffee shop owner. If the customer grabs his own coffee, that's fine, but he should probably grab it from home. It is not reasonable to expect the customer to enter the coffee shop, pour his own coffee and operate the cash register.
