Do you mean like calls?! Anyway, I see the focus on verbal communication, which has its uses, but it’s definitely not the main one. I prefer to hold someone accountable with written records, keep them in a CYA folder for easy and quick searches, or when I send someone an email, they can refer to it without bothering me in the future. This product might work to coordinate between a bunch of sales groups at an expo or something where quick, instant communication is needed, but for design engineers?! No thanks, I don’t need any extra distractions!
Well, it almost always becomes an actual dichotomy soon, for sufficiently large values of "soon."

A good thread for understanding the different ways people think of it. I always go with @speg's interpretation, because the pejorative meaning just isn't used that frequently on HN:

> I tend to rethink of it as "the featured article".
I can't agree. By far the biggest lesson that you can verify even on this thread, is that the biggest tech problems are actually people problems. Even things like tech debt are all over the place framed as project/people management rather than tech stuff at its fundamentals.

The comment already established the senior sysadmin is generally a valuable person who does a lot to flourish the company. Going out of the way to be a encumbrance towards someone who is verifiably doing their job anyways, means you're actively creating a people problem. I;d rather people learn the correct, bigger lesson here.
Someone could see a boob, or heaven forbid get offended.
You are more likely to die from lung cancer, than from a motorcycle accident, statistically. You are also wasting a lot of your life sitting in traffic. The cost of ownership is much higher, so you could say you’re wasting more hours at work to pay for the large vehicle. I’d say it breakeven at best.
OMG this was a total flashback. I remember getting those catalogs as a teenager and spending hours paging through them. Looking at it again I can still remember some of the products and copy almost verbatim. Fortunately I couldn't afford any of it (I say fortunately because it was all garbage, but I didn't realize that at the time).
PS acquired git prime and rebranded it as Flow, and then basically just kinda ignored it tbh. Basically it analyzed git data and gave info like velocity, how much work was new features vs refactors, etc. Very simplified explanation but for places where code-level analysis is used for performance tracking it can be useful. The problem imo is that while that kind of info is certainly interesting, in most cases it's not really that useful or actionable in practice.

Conflating free parking with a childhood core memory, a lake trip with your immigrant father, feels a little disingenuous to me. But I think you understand the core idea: by making something cheap or free, we incentivize the activity but we spend communal resources (tax dollars, or some rival good like space downtown, or space on a lake) to do so. But we as a society get to choose what to incentivize. Cars have externalities (traffic, the space they take up, pollution, their being required is expensive for working families) that other forms of transport don’t, so people are rethinking the various ways we incentivize driving.

While the post didn't particularly speak to me, I think you are being overly reductionist. You can dismissively summarize anything into a few "key points."

Just in the first couple of paragraphs alone:

- The author discusses the "why" by pointing to research on how new information triggers dopamine pathways. Maybe this is obvious to you but it's not necessarily obvious to everyone.

- The author points out that this would have historically been an evolutionary advantage (at least that's my interpretation), but access to modern high-volume, low-nutrient information has made this an addictive unhealthy habit.

- For those already familiar with how modern access to high-calorie, low-nutrient food (that triggers the dopamine response), the author is showing that the same mechanisms are at play with information.

I think it's actually your comment that contains the tweet-able one liners (as "key points") that are likely to result in head nods and smug self assurances but aren't doing anything to encourage deeper thought.

This is anti-intellectualism shrouded in pompous moralizing nonsense. Who is this guy to tell us that information we think is valuable isn't actually? I think he's stumping for deliberate ignorance and/or censorship, under the premise that information (especially the kind he doesn't find convenient) is as harmful as junk food.

I expected this to be a post about being overwhelmed by the sheer amount of good information that one can find online. Being stressed by too much information is an actual concern of mine. Instead I get lowkey propaganda vibes.

I would like to see a more in-depth, discussion about the pros and cons why you arrived at this solution, like a real written debate, where you give the best version of the arguments of people who don't want walkie-talkies to replace their Slack channels, then articulate why all-things-considered, you're better.

I was excited to see something new, but I want to really know if it's truly well-thought through to actually do anything / reserve / buy, which takes a lot more depth.

I know you provide the Cal Newport expert clips, but they're too long and not specific enough (I'll have to browse through a 2 hour long video) and are just talking about the problem, not the relative merits of the different solutions

Less affluent is the default state of things. It doesn't require a conspiracy or domineering other to create it.

You can argue the more affluent countries didn't help the less affluent ones enough. But there is literally billions in aid that goes from affluent to less affluent countries every year.

Unfortunately, aid is a short term fix for problems. The only real way to help them is to properly invest in them, which requires a stability that less affluent countries often lack.
That feels like a Hackathon idea, so fun. It's inspiring to me.

Meeting less competent people be extremely successful in life compare to the more competent folks. Through my life, I have seen people less curious, less innovative, no passion to learn, not interested in working hard, but are good at gaming the system excel and succeed. They become rich, financially independent, have great success. While people much smarter than me, more curious and innovative fail again and again to make a dent just because they had a late start, poor network, wrong time and place etc.

It made me realise that success is not because of what you are capable of. To, most extent its about how you fit into the system and work it to your favor.

So, while I'm still curious and interested to learn (why else to visit HN), I have stopped feeling bitter about my efforts not providing the returns. Its just the way world works.

It's cliche, but I really do feel reading the Art of Unix Programming gave me a very good sense early on for how to walk this line carefully. Unix programs are high quality - but they're also, ideally, small, and written with an eye to compositionality with the rest of the ecosystem. The best architecture is in the middle, and often the best first draft is a simple series of pipes.

No one wants to be a "programmer."

They'd rather be called "engineers."

With none of the licensure, mandatory education, and so forth. But the world needs programmers and technicians for most of the work we have to do. I do comparably little "engineering" and the little I have done that qualifies for such a statement I recall. Majority of the work is programming and technician work. Nothing wrong with that.
Thing is this should be a top mainstream news story, not one on a niche website.
I'm sorry but that doesn't seem at all like any kind of fundamental constraint. At most basic, simply not have your readers advance until after they're done reading? This seems trivial as fuck. I've seen a lot of protestations that have seemed like, ok, maybe perhaps perhaps perhaps I'm missing some factor? But no, it really seems like the problem of understanding when data is done being read isn't anywhere near as hard as the rebuttals here make it seem, and it seems like everything works much better when we can accept this constraint.

Perhaps we want to have any of the given multicast readers able to read more than one element at a time, and that does complicate things somewhat. But hardly impossible to handle.

Again: deeply disagreeing with the premise here that this can't be done. And it isn't even really a significant penalty, if your consumers do have to be async consumers that need to hold open their reading for a while. Unclear what the protests are.

> Don't have what?

new jobs and high pay

> your argument is that new, higher paying jobs are bad because other people make less

My argument is that new, higher paying jobs are bad for the people who don't have them. Is your argument that they're somehow good for the people who don't have them?

> Do you hold a general belief that all progress is "bad"

No. My belief is that progress is not "good" for the people who don't share in the benefits of that progress. Are you going to argue otherwise?

> Would you consider a new cancer drug "bad" because all those people who received an older drug didn't get to experience such good results?

No, but if a person suffers because they can't afford a new cancer drug and regards that as "bad", I'm not going to tell them they're wrong to make that judgement. Are you?
I think the article gets the incentives a little wrong.

The primary reason to engage with social media is not to consume useless content. If that's all it was, I wouldn't use it. No, the primary reasons are: to improve your professional standing, attract an audience that can be monetized, and learn useful information in your field (which can also be monetized). Or to make it even simpler: money, and power.

That changes the perspective on what has value and what is worth saying & doing.

For example, "low effort content" obviously has value if that's your goal, since you can spend 10 minutes crafting some tweet about your profession with low reach, or 10s photographing your food for a similar result. If you can type out something low effort than you can squeeze it in during work hours, for example - and building an audience is one example of how that could pay off.

Second, if money and power are your goal, then getting very familiar with marketing content is useful also. You have to learn what engages people and what gets people to sign up for stuff, even if its tedious or slightly cheesy. And hanging out on social media is how you do that.

Finally, if there are useful professional jewels amid all the chaff, then it may be okay that 95% of it is junk, if 5% of it is good. I will say that there are times when I've sworn off social media, then dipped back and noticed, actually, I do learn useful stuff here. If you want to use social media in a practical way, you can.

There's no good methodology for discerning whether homeschooling is good or bad because there's no ethical way to construct any research that would be illuminating.

I mean, playing sports (nowhere near even a semi-pro level) has destroyed my body a hell of a lot more than playing video games has. People just find one source of body destruction more "worthy" than the other, and that's more a societal value judgment thing than an objective danger level thing.

It isn't only video games that get hit with this; for example, in my experience ballerinas get a lot more faux concern about "destroying their feet" than, say, sprinters do, never mind that they have pretty much the same foot injury profiles.

(See also: sitting at a desk for eight hours to play video games is obviously bad for you, but sitting at a desk for eight hours to type reports for your employer couldn't possibly cause you any issues that said employer might be on the hook for.)
My most humbling moment was when I realized that I'm not a genius. It's that almost everyone else is dumb.

... Just kidding!

Actually, I've been humbled to realize that people who may be really dumb in one area can be really smart in another area and that there isn't one kind of intelligence.

I think even being good at sports is itself a form of intelligence. Being able to manipulate others politically or to draw/paint well or to ask the right questions, etc... It's rare to find people who are equally good at everything. I'm actually a pretty good all-rounder so I never understood how it's possible to be good at something and not good at other things. Surely people can apply the same reasoning skills to all these different endeavors! I thought. Wrong. For a lot of people (not me obviously), their intelligence is intuitive (subconscious) so they can't really repurpose it towards other tasks.

Intuition can be a very powerful tool. I'm kind of envious of people who have really excellent domain intuition. They come up with answers with such speed and ease, it's almost like muscle memory. Whereas my mind has to always work hard to get the same result. If I can do something, I can 100% explain it down to every detail. None of it is subconscious for me.

I think Jeff Bezos said something along those lines when discussing why he didn't pursue a PhD in Physics. He understood that Physics wasn't intuitive for him as it was for the smartest guy at his university.

This is a bit more complicated considering you can supply your own lyrics. The court didn't rule that non-generated media when mixed with anything AI generated invalidates the copyright of anything it's mixed with.

So given an AI generated song with fully human-written lyrics perhaps others could mute the lyrics, or more easily sample from it, but the resulting output as a whole would probably have some degree of copyright protection. Suno has also demonstrated being able to supply your own melodies too, put those two together and how much of the resulting work could be credibly argued to remain uncopyrightable?
