I like the phrase "Self-unfulfilling prophecy", for when a prediction that is acted-upon often invalidates its future.

There's also this annoying catch-22 which may be familiar to IT staff:

2. Things go right: "What do we even pay you for?"

There's no source for the claim. Here is all the New Yorker article says:

"That lucrative maneuvering is the realm of specialized attorneys, accountants, and money managers, many of whom work for family offices: in-house financial teams that typically include a dozen or so full-time attendants. Family offices, which have roots in nineteenth-century operations that served John D. Rockefeller and a handful of his peers, have proliferated in the past two decades, to at least ten thousand worldwide. They tend to have no public presence—Gordon Getty’s family office is known, inconspicuously, as Vallejo Investments—but by some estimates they control about six trillion dollars in assets, a larger sum than is managed by all the world’s hedge funds."

By some estates. Yeah ok. There's absolutely zero actual evidence to suggest the Getty family controls even a hundred billion in assets. No major wealth investigators (Forbes, Bloomberg to name two) in the past three decades has turned up such a large stash by that family.
I disagree. First of all, probably 90% of developer jobs fall outside of the categories you mention (embedded and frontend development). Most of those roles don't involve knowing the difference between /shin and /bin lol

when you start offering monetary rewards for non-serious crime reporting you end up where the number of reports will outrun the resources of the reviewers and eventually have someone be required to "protest" the report and claim they are innocent putting a burden on them rather than the burden being on the authorities to prove you've done something wrong first.

Do you really think life was fulfilling before the Industrial Revolution? Most men toiled, watched their children and wives die, before dying at a young age themselves. Where was the fulfillment, exactly? You’re only able to contemplate that life could possibly be fulfilling because of the Industrial Revolution.

Around 10-30% of drivers in the United States don't have car insurance depending on the state.

It really depends on the state on how strict they are with car insurance. My state is very lax and they don't even really check at the DMV. The fine for not having car insurance is also only ~300 bucks and a 90 day license suspension and it only goes up slightly until like the 4-5 time you get caught. It just honestly doesn't make sense to have car insurance with the cost/risk that low. People who pay $50-100 bucks a month for car insurance are morons btw. You can insure yourself for like $30k, and you don't have $30k lying around paying $100 bucks a month is a terrible financial decision.

Insurance in general is a whole racket. Its literally only works due to the fact people on average pay more than they receive. "Oh but what if a bad thing happens" way to live your life, disregarding economics and averages.

Take out a personal loan or save the money you would spend on insurance evry year in a liquid asset (not cash that's almost as bad as insurance). Buying insurance is for npcs.

Only insurance that makes sense to have is insurance that is government subsidized, but that isn't because its better its because you are forced to pay part of its cost with your taxes. Enjoy getting screwed sideways by big government, who literally paya middle man to help ensure their citizens get healthcare instead of directly to the actual healthcare facilities. Insurance offers no service, its a worse scam than banks and credit cards combined.

Setting aside the obvious dystopian next steps, I think the main problem with automated traffic law enforcement is that our laws are quite bad in the sense that they rely on enforcement being loose and somewhat subjective to even work at all. The speeds on various roads, the timing of traffic lights, the places one can park and for how long, etc, are not carefully planned or thought out enough to actually work if everyone were to strictly adhere to them. It all works because lots of people can briefly park in illegal places, choose reasonable times to speed, or reasonable moments to use the shoulder to go around obstructions, etc.

Obviously you capture some craziness on the margin that you want to capture, but also on the margin is the fudging that makes the whole thing work at all.

And as far as porn goes sure. The thing about Twitter is you wouldn't see porn unless you specifically go and look for it. Which is why I always find it amusing when people complain about this "problem". There is no porn in people's feeds by default, one has to train the algo to show it by searching for it and interacting with porn accounts. It's especially funny since on Twitter itself there are always conservative or Christian accounts complaining to Musk that they see too much adult content and that he needs to ban it.

> that Linux is harder to "learn" than Windows.

This is completely my personal opinion, but I find Linux much easier to navigate and set things up in than Windows. I barely used macOS, so I can’t judge that. In Linux, pretty much everything can be done in the terminal, and it's easy to find workarounds. If you “screw something up” badly—with no snapshots/backup—you can reinstall the whole system without touching the home partition, assuming it’s on a separate one. And we are not even talking about nixOS or the likes ones.

In general, if there's a record of something which was captured in the course of ordinary business which is relevant as evidence in a court matter (such as the recording of your Ring camera), and parties to proceedings have good reason to believe you have this record, then they can generally get a subpoena issued to compel you to produce it for the court. This applies to both the prosecution and the defense (both criminal and civil).

The protection against "unreasonable" search and seizure comes in the form of the fact the requesting party has to convince the court (usually the registry) that there is reasonable grounds before they will issue a subpoena.

As an investigative matter (prior to any charges, court listings, and subpoenas), it is possible to get a search warrant including for evidence held by 3rd parties who aren't suspected of anything. Again, police don't have carte blanche. They need to convince a judicial officer of some sort that there is reasonable grounds before a warrant will be issued.

There are ways to challenge a warrant/subpoena. Sometimes a successful challenge only serves to make the evidence inadmissible but doesn't prevent the search in the first place (aka "you can beat the ticket but you can't beat the ride).

All that said, some judges / courts tend to practically be a rubber stamp for whatever warrant / subpoena the police want. Others actually do their job. It ain't perfect, but if you can think of a better system, I'd love to hear it.
> does the tooling augment a human, or is the tooling sold to replace a human?

It's bizarre on HN of all places, given its connection to the tech industry and the history of tools sold by that industry, that someone would imagine these are mutually exclusive options.

As is often the case with tech industry tools, the tool in fact augments a human, and is (often) sold to replace a human. That's barely even a superficial contradiction -- enhancing the productivity of each human doing a task, from the perspective of consumer of the kind of human labor involved that is making short-term decisions around a fixed amount of needed output -- replaces some share of those humans rather directly. (On a broader analysis, this is often not true, because it also expands the market for the kind of work it augments by reducing the price per unit output to the point where more marginal uses become viable, but the individual existing purchaser of output often isn't concerned with that.)
Well thank you this makes me feel a tiny bit better, but with strategies like buy, borrow, die, it’s just a matter of time before these rumors become reality.
Yeah, I don’t see many of the people criticizing the Industrial Revolution opting into pre-industrial existences. I’m pretty minimalist, and I’ve grown up around the Amish and even they prefer to avail themselves of technology where they can. I think there’s a fair amount of romanticizing about a pre-industrial lifestyle. This obviously isn’t to argue that we should all live maximally consumerist lifestyles; I don’t think that’s true either.

I think your right this is just one approach out of many.

Once your money timeline stretches to the second generation one can start thinking in much bigger ways that have nothing to do with individual ownership of assets. The amount of assets doesn’t have to be large to start thinking in longer term cash flow cycles.
I switched from windows 7 to Ubuntu and never looked back. Bizarrely I find desktop Linux to be closer to the (very good) windows 7 experience than modern windows is. I detest the nagginess and ads in windows now. Not to mention trying to force Microsoft accounts to use your own damn computer. Meanwhile Apple is slightly better but wants to wall the garden on Mac, scaring people away from using software that apple didn’t approve.

> You probably don't live in the forest. You have neighbours

Lot of people in the United States live in very rural areas with their nearest neighbor being 5-10 miles away.

The cheapest places to buy are also in rural areas. With the popularity of work from home rising, its not crazy to think a large amount of people will start living in secluded places.

Anyway, packing like a sardine in a city is gross and for gross people. If you can't be happy alone in nature, don't deserve to be happy. Urbanites are the lowest species of human, with the highest crime rate and most drug use and homelessness. They are all depressed, neurotic freaks because they live in an environment where you xan't even see the stars in the night sky where there is constant noises every second of the day. No wonder these people all need anti depressants and anti anxiety medication.
I'm not sure I agree, I think you forget web developers.

I think today the only reason to need to know linux is actually backend dev and embedd in the sense of small pcs with custom uis.

With the amount SaaS today most of the backend services can be bough, so that also lowers the amount of developers who need to know linux.
No, just download the source and check. It's 14M C/C++ and 4M in Rust. There is another 3.3M in Go and 1.1 in Dart. This is a usual trope that Rust is just about to replace C++ but in fact more and more gets written in C++.

I mentioned it at the bottom. The report doesn't provide numbers. I would assume that they would negotiate a rate that results in marginally higher yield than a bond that would mature over the lifetime of the loan.

30 year bond is ~4.2%. You'd pay $60M in interest on a single loan at 10yrs and $183m if you took out repeated loans at 10yr/20yr/30yr and repaid at 35.

I assume that the math works out such that if you had a LOC for 100% of the asset, at the 30 year bond rate, and continually maxed out the LOC, that the interest rate paid would equal the taxation rate.

The point is that the worst case scenario is paying equivalent fees without having to trade-off between liquidity and appreciation and the best case scenario is significantly lower fees because you didn't need 100% liquidity.

Is this partly why so many billionaires own things like mega-yachts? Presumably they aren't all avid yacht enthusiasts, no?

For example, Mark Zuckerberg has a lot of money. So much that he can buy a mega-yacht and it not really affect him financially. But, he could buy lots of things that don't affect him financially, and he chooses not to do so.

I always assumed that acquiring a massively valued asset like a yacht that's assumed to appreciate was part of this "buy, borrow, die" strategy.

For insurance underwriting, would it need to? "People whose household receive X anonymous tips" is a cohort that either does or does not have more insurable risk, and if it does correlate then you can make an attempt to adjust premiums accordingly.

If I or somebody else was the victim of a crime I would 100% support using every available source of information to solve that crime. I think we need adequate controls sure, but mostly we need to increase trust in government and police forces so we know we can trust the relevant people with our data.

There is epic fear in the US about the government. That is the actual problem. Now the US gov is a shady piece of shit, so a lot of that is well founded, but that is the root of the problem. Solve that problem and actually trust the people who are supposed to be responsible and in charge to do the right thing and this data problem stops becoming as much of an issue. And no, building some kind of philosophical zero trust system is not going to solve anything, it is a prison you'll end up living in.

Encourage transparency in Police forces and Government with strong legislation and strong support for whistleblowers and punishment of infractions and you have yourself a system that people can begin to trust.
