I'm sure it is. But surely there would be some examples that could have been cited?

I'd suggest that in government, it's not so much human nature that's different as incentive structures.

I don't mean to argue that government is all sunshine, roses and enlightened altruism. Just that even if Shirky's theorem is just as true of governments, this article doesn't support that conclusion, despite being written as if it does.
Very interesting. Who are your target customers ?
Using OPM.gov's definition:

Work sample tests require applicants to perform tasks or work activities that mirror the tasks employees perform on the job.

You can call them "take-home tests" if you want, but that term is more general; lots of take-homes aren't work samples (they're not work samples if they're abstract coding puzzles that have nothing to do with the real work, for instance).

Intel CEO (2017): "We think of ourselves as an Israeli company as much as a US company"

https://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/Intel-CEO-We-think-of-ours...

For me it is one of many reasons to avoid Intel products, but I am not sure why their upcoming fab in Israel will be a PR disaster -- Intel will simply focus their PR on their USA factories.
I wonder if heroin is still obtainable there, unlike in the US where the only option is a bag of fentanyl cut with whatever the favorite local garbage substitue is. That alone would go a long way toward the differences in OD rates.

Inform 7 was written for people like yourself. Check it out. The syntax is prosaic enough for a humanities nerd to write and structured enough for ChatGPT4 to generate.

Contrived example:

> The Exhibition Room is a room. It contains a closed locked lockable transparent openable container called the display case. The display case contains a priceless pearl. The display case is scenery. The description of the Exhibition Room is "By far the finest thing in the room is a priceless pearl in a glass display case. It should of course be yours[if key is not visible], if only you can remember where you hid the key[end if]."

> The silver key unlocks the display case.

> A jade vase, a teak chest, a bronze teakettle, and a child's burial casket are openable closed containers in the Exhibition Room.

> After taking the pearl: say "The pearl rolls into your hand, gleaming in the oblique light; your fortune is made."

> end the story finally.

All helpful responses, thank you. You're right this is what I was asking. My new question, if that's okay, is: how does the open source community attract ideas from non-developers or people who don't have a network of people who could be core contributors?

From someone who doesn't use twitter it sounds like a really weird thing to try jam into a short-form social platform? If anyone does have any insight (beyond the clearly terrible direction of twitter) I'm curious

Exactly. I have the same thought about Conway's Law aka "the software structure will end up matching the company's org chart".

Conway's Law is not a code smell to be avoided. Avoiding it is sisyphean, a band-aid, and nearly impossible.

Instead, Conway's Law is a way, indeed the only sustainable way, to choose the software structure.

I don’t know how to break it to you, but cell membranes are not blood vessels. Things go across… differently.
My grandfather was a career medical researcher and medical school founder, with a career spanning heart surgery, kidney transplant pioneering, to blood diseases, and pulmonary systems. He had hundreds of papers published, hundreds of patents, and published until he died in his 80s. In my experience he was very well versed in the ethical standards for medical research, sat on the human research standards boards, and oversaw likely thousands of graduate students. My belief from existing in his orbit and sitting in his labs most my summers growing up was people were very concerned about the ethics of human research. I think generally the culture of biomedical research tends to reject people who aren’t from the field, and journals tend to hold fairly uniform standards that are pretty broadly agreed upon. I don’t think the researchers in question here were ambiguous as to whether forced or coerced consent to genetic forensic research is ethical or not. It was just convenient and didn’t require sourcing subjects and engaging with them sufficient to gain positive informed consent. People that traffic in slave labor goods are almost certainly aware it’s considered wrong, people who traffic in forced medical research also know it’s considered wrong. It’s not the same as skipping through a ten thousand page boilerplate of garbage.
PowerToys with WindowWalker ( https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/powertoys/run#wind... ) is what I do use a lot to search through windows - I have a lot of terminals open usually, could be like 30-40 spread across virtual desktops and searching one specific based on server name it's connected too saves me some time.

Back in a days when Virtual Desktops were not that handy (technically those available since win2000 if I recall correctly), I've used Blackbox for Windows and my own homemade program to quick search though all PuTTYs (written in VB6 + Winapi). Now I don't need it anymore :)
Manufacturers and designers will naturally optimise their products (for energy, flops, features, time to market and/or cost) in order to gain an edge over their competitors. Thier requires them to either patent, license, or otherwise obfuscate their designs.

This isn’t a conspiracy - going full open source is very rarely cost effective or commercially viable. A vast proportion of products and features would never have come to being in a world that was wholly funded by goodwill.
Anything even remotely interesting advertised on Facebook is a scam.
This one drives me crazy, but I like Letter Boxed <https://www.nytimes.com/puzzles/letter-boxed> and have been trying to study the algorithm in order to know how to generate my own puzzles. As best I can tell it has a lot to do with the placement of vowels and then grouping common 2-grams on the same side ([A, T, H]) so one can't readily play A-T or T-H parts

I haven't been tracking their answers for very long, but it also seems they post a lot of two word solutions, so it's possible the puzzles are generated from those two words and then they just set the upper limit for the website based on some other heuristic (since it's not always 4 words, or 5)
Judge Judy
Honestly, why not?

Obviously there needs to be SOME degree of vetting, but the way senior+ engineers are handled in the market is just absurd. The entire software engineering process is so closely tied to college classes with maybe a few years of professional work. All with the idea that "hiring the wrong person is terrible" but not considering that there may be thousands of developers that can effectively do the work.

If software engineering was handled like most other jobs, your work experience and references would be like 70% of what are considered. Instead, resumes serve as little more than initial screens at best, with all the weight given to leetcode results, pet questions and system design questions about how you'd build Uber in 10 minutes.

We act like its the 90s and literally everyone is new to the game. It's time to recognize the job has become a mature profession and we should treat it as such.

This is really underappreciated, iron overload is very common.

I've always thought of the national anthem as more of a collective show of appreciation for the good parts of the US, which is probably why I've always been OK with it.

The pledge of allegiance, on the other hand, feels like a forced statement of blind loyalty. Gives me the same ick I get whenever I've been at some sort of rally or protest when they try to hype up a crowd. I've never been to church but I'd imagine it's the same thing.
I did the following for ~9 years.

0. Find someplace warmer and milder. CA coast between Los Angeles and San Diego.

1. Waterproof dry bags for electronics with desiccants. Beware taking cold electronics into warm rooms because that equals condensation, shorts, and/or corrosion.

2. Live in a vehicle, preferably a small RV and somewhere not adverse to vehicle dwelling.

3. Focus on what clients want specifically, not all possible technologies. Sign contracts charging by the project milestone rather than an hourly rate. Deliver without delay. Get an LLC (corporation) because it's cheap and allows large clients to pay you. Don't work for peanuts. $3k/week as an example.
I think YouTube is an example of where Google would rather sell you a service (YouTube Premium) than an ever-increasing number of ads (including ads for YouTube Premium). Google makes more money from Premium users. Creators get paid more for Premium views. The experience is better for everyone but your wallet's a bit lighter.

Google and Facebook make most of its money off ads because the reality is that users don't like paying for stuff directly.
As a non-artist sometimes I find artists somewhat tedious, they all seem to pretend they are doing something unique and creative yet it doesn’t look particularly interesting or different to me, instead more tedious.

This behavior is pretty much the state of the American two party political system. For example, Democrats had countless attempts to make abortion a constitutional right, but if they did, they could no longer count on using that subject for fundraising against the "enemy". Using Democrats as an example, both parties are guilty.
I am familiar with the flag. While it's fun to poke at people who don't know better, this sort of thing cuts both ways. For example, I could find countless examples of people who align themselves with defunding the police, yet lament at the fact that their neighborhood is now suffering from crime.

Either way, your public fear of posting a Wikipedia link says a lot about you.
Yeah, the actual outcome is now that many businesses close their bathrooms to the public unless you’re buying something.
von Braun's service to Germany was noted in the 1960s, but seven years after his death in 1977, records were released specifically showing von Braun's connection to one of Hitler's SS paramilitary camps.

"Belatedly, many became aware of the deaths of thousands of prisoners in the V-2 program and the potential implication of von Braun, and a few key associates, in those crimes," according to the PBS article (linked to in the article).

https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/chasing...

Great. So you say. Now how do we tell them apart?
FASTER is awesome! I just wish the C version was as feature complete as the C# version. I know how to use FFI to call C stuff, but I have no idea how to call C# stuff. It's the only reason I haven't used it in real life.
It's not just Korea that Twitch isn't profitable in; the company as a whole is not profitable.

Considering the high payouts to streamers, the lack of benefits for premium members, the long streaming hours of games which incurs server costs and makes it difficult to display ads, I don't think their business model is sustainable in the long run.
Most of those types of guardrails can be circumvented by saying something like "let's pretend" or "let's play a game". I don't know how that framing impacts responses, but it helps get past all that tiring "sorry Dave I can't do that" nonsense.
The "explanation of its components" is the problem: someone needs to do it. Open source projects don't have an employee's first day, so they don't have this introduction.

They're not good if you don't have a sea of time, though. (An employee is expected to take a few weeks before getting anything done on their own.) I'm a security consultant, so we get to see a brand new one of these every two weeks and the problem with these explanations is that they are ad-hoc, unstructured, and mention lots of irrelevant details because the speaker has the curse of knowledge.

Perhaps someone new to the repository should write this thing once, after which it can just be maintained. Second best is to just have anybody write it down, taking a minute to think about what goes in there and what doesn't rather than doing it always on the fly, because as the author says:

In my experience, requesting the reports in the mail is the only guaranteed way that I can get my full credit reports. The website sometimes works, but I often get an error for my Experian report that says that "A condition exists that prevents Experian from being able to accept your request at this time." It turns out that Experian never lets me get my annual free credit report using Firefox, but if I try it with Chrome, I can get it. This is the only workaround I've found when the website won't give you your report. The only other option is to just mail in the form and wait a few weeks (which is what I often end up doing anyway).
What’s old is new again: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rent-seeking

We can change the language but human biology is tethered to meat space and has not evolved beyond the same old obfuscation. We raise functional illiterates who can only relate to the world through learned helplessness and pandering to supply side to solve their last mile problems.

Large scale infra projects, internet, sure, I get that. Making every fruity drink and sandwich for us? Come on what is this, high school? This cultures economy is rooted in infantilizing Disney vibes. Mush some berries and strain them; assembly lines for drinks is a huge resource wasting low effort economic idea. Sell plain seltzer and let people figure it out.

We’re way over industrialized and coddled to insulate brand investors. Pseudoreligious belief in unreal things to arbitrarily compute values from. None of this is divine mandate. Just the result of propaganda.
I'll offer up a "maybe hope":

It might net neutral or net benefit. Now the lack of maintenance and underinvestment is visible, but you're taking strain off the (mostly invisible and no doubt underinvested in) storm water system by swapping impermeable surfaces for permeable ones. (This is a good way to save money on storm water systems in general).

That said, my cynical side would still somehow expect my local council to screw it up anyway.
Because infohazards are fake and we think it's funny.
A useful way to think about it is that the PDS is a "user agent" - they act on behalf of the user, and with the user's implicit trust. This is much the same way that a user trusts webserver software (and the VPS running it) to correctly serve their website, hold onto the private keys for the site's TLS certificates, use those private keys to correctly set up encrypted connections to the website, etc.

The AT Protocol itself does technically allow for all private key material to be held at all times by the user, but that means the user needs to be interactively involved in any operation that requires making a signature (and online / available whenever such an operation is necessary, which isn't necessarily the same times as when the user is interacting with a particular app like BlueSky running on ATProto). The PDS software that BlueSky have implemented instead requires (IIRC) that the PDS has the private key for at least one of the public signing keys (but there can be multiple signing keys, so the user can also hold onto one locally).

Huly Platform – All-in-One Replacement for Linear/Jira, Slack, Notion, Motion
Yes, exactly! The goal was to make my digital collection physical. So a bunch of cheap RFID cards and a label printer. You can browse through cards and place them on an RFID reader hooked up to a raspberry pi (and my stereo) and it plays the full album.

I have found it is great when people are over as everyone gets to dig through a huge collection of cards and take turns playing their favorites.

I wrote some customer software but it is pretty basic. Basically read the ID of a card and play the corresponding album.

I get what you’re saying and it’s a fair point (ack that it’d be nice to have a gov’t example) but I am just saying that I don’t think lack of citing a domain-specific case study implies a problem is irrelevant in a given domain. It’s rather strong of a statement to say that this article does not support the conclusion that government institutions or systems or entities are susceptible to the Shirky principle when it presents supporting evidence that is reasonably applicable to all types of institutions, systems, and entities.
