Reminds me of an investing strategy I came across on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrarian_investing

> In "The Art of Contrary Thinking" (1954) by Humphrey B. Neill; considered influential by some in contrarian thinking, he notes it is easy to find something to go contrary to, but difficult to discover when everybody believes it.[2] He concludes "when everybody thinks alike, everybody is likely to be wrong."

Google Cloud Domains is still a thing, and you can purchase domains from the console still. The registrar changed to square space, but it didn't really impact Google Cloud's usage.
> Dating a coworker does not necessarily imply you are “behaving like a sexual predator.”

Dating a coworker (or many) when you are the boss and married is exactly what a sexual predator do. Being a predator doesn't mean he "predate" on every walking thing.

The very first thing you need to know about CSS is that it uses the language of print layout, not programming.

A lot of the problems programmers seem to have with CSS probably stem from this misapprehension.

Highly recommended for CSS Grid is Jen Simmons Mondrian with auto flow. https://labs.jensimmons.com/2017/01-011.html. Try 'C' and 'D' then change the window size. Also the youtube video that goes along https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNtJ5p3h2A4.

Just very cool.

The one thing about auto flow I wish I understood was how to detect, and fill, gaps. If I have some random collection of differently sized objects, how do I ensure that auto flow leaves no gaps? Or even detect that so I can add something?
You only need a few VCs (and there are always outliers) and so many founders and their employees (by definition it's hard to have a crowd of outliers).

I was shocked when I learned that the majority of the Meteor Lake CPU is made by TSMC and that for the next gen Lunar Lake due in September EVERYTHING except the base tile (which is just a 22nm PCB) will be made by TSMC.
Maybe you can help me a bit. In what is almost a year of this research and building now, I've really only found Staircase Ventures and Inovia to be "American Style" in a genuine way (everyone talks, talk is cheap) - do you have anyone else you would add to this list?

At this mid-late career stage... this is a real gotcha with being an employee software developer at BigCo or wherever.

We work on writing code M-F, 9-5, when managers and customers are around so we collaborate and troubleshoot together then and stuff, fine.

We need to deploy, rollback, do checkouts, etc. _after hours_ so it doesn't affect the business. Sometimes it's deploy on Friday night... then some problem is found first thing Monday morning of Sunday night (from Asia Monday users) that requires "urgent" attention, so you end up with both a late start and an early finish to the weekend.

Deploying software is a standard, predictable, part of the job/business hours, so it should really be done during regular hours, or otherwise hire some dedicated "second shift" people to do it after hours / during their _normal_, agreed hours. I don't mind being flexible / "going the extra mile" sometimes... but when it is most weekends, it's a big ask, it's basically working 1.5 jobs for 1 salary.

In practice, usually some staff member who wants to "go the extra mile" will volunteer for this thankless task as a way to get noticed... but instead they end up getting burnt out and jaded, and then quit and find the next sucker to saddle with it.
EastWind campaign: CloudSorcerer attacks on government organizations in Russia
To answer an aspect of your question that other commenters haven't addressed, the snatch works hip and shoulder mobility in a way that deadlifting and squats do not. The barbell is driven by the explosive hip hinge (unhinge?) directly up, so it is a departure from deadlift even if it looks like it would train the same muscles. Training your snatch lift in a non-competitive sense really exposes imbalances the lifter has. Your hesitance is really reasonable though, it's a non-trivial lift so coming into lifting completely new and trying to throw a snatch up isn't a very good idea.

Hence what I wrote above:

> Would wish the industry could agree on using something more modern and reliable.

There’s no techical reason why we can’t use NTFS on Macs or APFS on Windows, if the industry was willing work towards that goal together.
I think it's quite logical. A simple filesystem with few features is obviously easier to implement.
Maybe the problem is that what I’m calling third base is what you are calling second base...
Zfs should be installable on all three operating systems afaik though
I typically look at grid as the outermost container. It is very good at dealing with coarse layout concerns because you can constrain on both dimensions and define a layout per media query (or whatever).

I've never been in a situation where nesting grids makes sense. Nesting flexbox obviates the need for grid in most cases.
These strategies are employed by natural selection, immune systems, etc. indirectly through random mutations, which gives more chances of survival when the "unthinkable" happens. I always thought this explains why there's people out there who are allergic to the weirdest things.
If there's one consumer base where the consumers will mindlessly buy every new product despite the price or the fact that it's the same thing as the previous model, it's Apple. It's a brand for people with money who want to flex on the poor, not a brand for people who put thought into their purchases or who care about tech. You said it already, it's about status.
Show HN is for things you've made rather than just things you use, take a look at https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html
You’re right that there is a cost to producing a product, but the question was about the switching cost to the customer. At very least there is a direct labour cost to move the ads from Google to something else, so it is obviously not 0 like the out-to-lunch comment claimed earlier. Although I think we all know the switching cost is going to be way higher than that as the aforementioned spend on building the product isn't fruitless.

Does anyone have any experience actually applying this idea? Devil’s advocates often seem to engage in a lot of rhetorical sleight-of-hand in the first place. I’d worry that a social convention of always having one would somehow cause even more argument gamesmanship.

Authentic disagreements are better, I think. Maybe inauthentic ones are better than nothing, though.
We have a law for such articles, and the answer is: "No.".
Not as I understand it. The device is apparently hooked to the neurons that are responsible for activating muscle tissue that would ordinarily articulate speech.

It is not connected to the "part" where ones inner voice lives, because nobody has a clue where that is situated.
I thought the same thing. This seems like a rhetorical technique to just shove the definition down one layer. But it sounds right.

Sometimes I wonder if Aristotle was just trying to skate by without being called. Or truth really is that nuanced and simple and can’t be defined any more distinctly.

All of these guidances seem true but also sort of vapid. Be smart, be kind, be virtuous. I’m not sure how Aristotle measured and confirmed his happiness and goodness of life.

It seems to me to be quite easy to convince myself I’m happy and have others impressed enough that they assume I’m happy; yet not actually be happy.
In my first job we loaned Hadoop clusters that we either managed ourselves or let the client manage the IT. One of our client decided to use a contractor instead (I might miss details, it was almost 10 year ago) .

The day after configuring the cluster and giving him the metaphorical keys, we saw low-level alert on one computer in that cluster, some monitoring daemon couldn't be reached but nothing really concerning (could still be pinged, no issues with the virtualisation). We still tried to look at it, but could't ssh on the computer (which explains why our daemons couldn't be reached). We contacted the client, said basically: 'we can remove the monitoring and our access keys if you want, but please tell us before you do this. Do you want it done on the other computers?'.

He came back the day after that saying basically 'what?' then talking about a shard that couldn't be reached (he was nice about it).

Turns out, 'chmod 777 /' is the dumbest way of breaking your workstation I've ever seen. We all hear about 'rm -rf /' but let's be real, no one has ever done it, not outside of school at least. Chmod 777 / because you couldn't manage to understand a Java stacktrace has 100% been done in a professional environment: I had to fix it.

Luckily you can copy the permissions of filesystem A onto filesystem B (can't remember how, but it was easy) so the fix didn't involve any reinstallation and Hadoop wizardry.

These kinds of comments are always good times to repost Michael Huemer's "In Praise of Passivity", which tackles these arguments against not following the news in a generalized but imo very effective way.

I think there are three parts to your argument: 1) status quo is bad 2) you can design and centrally direct a better alternative and 3) it should be funded through taxation.

Whether we need 3 depends on 1 and 2. Hell, if 1 is bad enough and 2 is good enough, it could justify anything, including conscription to a literal media war. But even assuming I grant you 1 is true, nothing in TFA or your comments convinces me that 2 is true.

Most examples of state and media unification I can think of are not free, not useful except as explicit propaganda arms.

This vulnerability isn't with the underlying OS though. They just installed a disabled application that has security concerns, but someone has to manually enable it for it to be a problem.

I think scholarly books and translations create a sense of "Truth" that is dangerous for beginners. With ChatGPT, it creates an automatic "should I really believe this?" sensation in the reader. I LOVE that sensation when dealing with old literature.

Most translations have serious issues. Most human summaries and books about old literature are crushingly wrong or misleading in key ways. That's not necessarily a problem, unless the reader takes them as the "Truth." It takes a long time for a beginner to get the confidence to doubt the experts.

Wikipedia had this effect: making us question what we read on the internet (since it was written by amateurs). However, now that wikipedia has largely become the best source of information on the web (due to insistence on sourcing), I see chatGPT playing a key role in building critical thinking skills among topic n00bs. It can help guide a beginner towards new knowledge in an accessible manner, but yet leaves them feeling skeptical and wanting more direct information. Many experts doubt that the average person can think this way, but my experience with 15 year olds using chatGPT is that they very quickly learn to maintain skepticism. They just need about an hour or two of use, and it comes naturally.

Maybe with better models, they won't get this practice. Maybe in the future, we will roll out GPT3 for human training.
Apps don't have root permission and most Apis aren't available until the user accepted a prompt for the permission. And this specific API is likely only possible through adb, though I'm not further informed then this cited thread.

Could they change that in a software update? Sure! But they could also just push an update that crypto locks your device unless you pay them a monthly fee. The technology exists to do so, your trusting the OTA update provider not to do so. Just like with every other device you're running updates on, wherever that's your laptop, TV, fridge, smart mirror, speakers, doorbell, lightning or... whatever else has firm- or software in your household that you choose to update, manually or automatically.
Consciousness for me is a more sophisticated process than "simpler" thinking.

When I say thinking I mean things like planning to get a snack by pushing a chair in front of a counter to then jump up and open a cabinet and then even being ingenious enough to pretend not to have done it, even putting the chair back and hiding the snack if spotted. This is obviously not just "see snack get snack" reactive operation. What I think is debatable dogs may have are things like metacognition which I'd put under the consciousness umbrella. Even that I've seen examples, but I agree its much rarer.
The industry requires a filesystem that has free and robust sample codes that runs on a 500kHz CPU with 512 bits of RAM, and Microsoft didn't provide one for exFAT, nor for NTFS, so...

Back when Andreessen Horowitz was investing heavily in ICOs I realized that their business was essentially offering their LPs legal access to the ground floor of scams. Every time one of the ICOs turned out to be a fraud they could say "We had no idea, we're one of the victims!"

This, in turn, probably led directly to FTX. They did laughably bad diligence on FTX because they needed to do bad diligence in order to retain plausible deniability.
> Dogs think.

The fashion in which they do it is recognized by Aristotle in Historia Animalium, as well as in Metaphysics and De Anima.

He also mentions it in passing in Nicomachean Ethics (III.ii)

> Choice, then, seems to be voluntary, but not the same thing as the voluntary; the latter extends more widely. For both children and the lower animals share in voluntary action, but not in choice, and acts done on the spur of the moment we describe as voluntary, but not as chosen.

> It seems that choosing is willing, but that the two terms are not identical, willing being the wider. For children and other animals have will, but not choice or purpose; and acts done upon the spur of the moment are said to be voluntary, but not to be done with deliberate purpose.

They want founders who win.
Yeah, flexing on the poor is definitely why I buy their products, it has absolutely nothing to do with the quality and productivity gains I get from their product ecosystem.
There's nothing wrong with getting involved in foreign wars, if that means supporting a nation that has been attacked by its neighbor in gross violation of international law.

I don't agree with US involvement in Iraq, Afghanistan and many other places, but Ukraine is a obviously totally different from those. Marjorie Taylor Greene may not give a damn as she lives thousands of kilometers from Russia (or maybe she's just been bought by Russian money), but morally she's wrong. When it comes to Russian imperialism, the only right thing to do is help its victims fight back.
>It's a self fulfilling prophecy

Funny, when I was trying to formulate a theory in my mind I was thinking of the phrase "vicious cycle". I was close enough, I think:)

I'm wondering if it's because Canadians and other countries with similar environments have been conditioned to exercise a different muscle: getting and retaining public funding. The incentive there is to under-promise and deliver/over-deliver, or at least appear to be delivering or over-delivering on paper. It's like that because the public judges are often much less knowledgeable and are forced to judge you on what you said you were going to do on your initial proposal and you're often times forced to start working before any money is deposited in your bank account.
Glad you shared that screenshot, it's so representative of the enshittification of the web. The actual article is entirely covered up by a cookie notice ("we log user data") with no Reject button; a massive modal to advertise the paid subscription to Medium; and a popup to connect to Google Account for some reason. I can't even read the article's full title. Absurd.
This is a little too realistic. You left out the quarreling and politics between users of your system that is short on resources.
> Google's own incompetence and lack of reliability

Google are not a hardware company, they are an advertising broker. They aren't in the least bit interested in anything that doesn't increase money from that core business. They only started making phones so as not to lose control over that advertising space, but they remain mediocre at it at best because that's enough for them.

Apple are a hardware company, that's where their focus is.
That's definitely been one of my hurdles. Though ammusingly one thing that's helped is to give an example to ChatGPT and ask it to describe the art style.

You could think of it as a proof saying which polynomials are solvable by which algorithms. Solvable by radicals is one class of simpler algorithm and it so happens we have a cute proof as to when it will work or fail.
Feels weird defending VC's but here we go: I'm not sure what your experience is dealing with actual VC's? Are you a founder?

In my experience with some top tier VC's none of the above is true. At least none of the VC partners I work with has ever even suggested "lying to customers", "making up numbers" or anything like that.

Sure, looking bigger than you are is useful. Not airing dirty laundry. Also aggressively going after customers is normal. But this is normal for any business.

Why does anyone pay google to advertise? Most people don't have adblocker they get a paid for link often.

There are also a range of topics google will not return the best ranked information. There are a ton of political issues (due to advertiser pressure) where the different results are huge when you search in duckduckgo vs google. This is monopoly power to decide what gets seen and what doesn't get seen.
They absolutely do define gradients via functions - but the point it, the screen only has a finite number of pixels. As I understood it, pixels is what this technique uses as it's dicing primitive. Pixel sized rectangles cut out of the polygon.

Pixar's Renderman used to use a (slightly) related technique. This was along time ago, and I have no idea if they still do things this way - but they would subdivide patches until each primitive was smaller than a pixel.
The word for this in Ireland is "notions". Trying to be successful carries the stain of trying to be better than your peers.

Perhaps Canadians have a similar word? I can't really think of an equivalent in the US, which is perhaps telling.

If the device in question sets off uncontrolled nuclear chain reaction, then yes, it is good for its purpose as a nuclear weapon.

You are asking/implying: is the nuclear weapon's purpose good (in the first place)?

Something can be good for its purpose (e.g., electric chair [0]), but the good/badness of that purpose is a separate question.

One feature I found rather unique at Fidelity (I too have recently migrated there as my "one stop shop") was free outgoing domestic wires ($100 minimum). Being able to "teleport" money within an hour to another pre-registered account (before 3PM ET on biz days, in my experience) facilitated switching to Fidelity while still keeping old bank/CU accounts minimally active without having to engage in a lot of thinking ahead about balances (and worrying about EFT/ACH hold times) at those now peripheral accounts.
Thai kind of opinion is pretty common and has been around since before the iPhone, when Apple's computers were considered overpriced luxury items to flex on the poor.

Heck, I had this opinion back in 2008 or so.

The problem is that it's a thought terminating cliche. Once you've assigned apple customers into the rich/dumb/cultist category you become blind to the actual reasons why Apple is successful.

My own take, after using Apple stuff for 15 years now, is it's the attention to detail. It still shocks me that macOS has better support for using EMacs style text shortcuts (^A, ^E, ^K, etc) in basically any applications text field than Linux does.
