I have been making the same point this whole time: the aversion to unions stems entirely from economic reasoning, not some "personality/sub-cultural disdain" for unions among the majority of software developers. In particular:

* Unions tend to push for seniority based pay schedules that fail to reward based on performance.

* Unions maintain membership be deliberately opposing efficiency gains that would allow for more work to be done with fewer personnel (because fewer personnel means fewer union members).

These trends are economically bad. Both for software developers themselves and for society as a whole. The majority of software developers who reject unions do so, entirely on these sorts of economic grounds. That's my position, and I don't see where it's changed throughout this conversion.

On the other hand, I'm still not sure about the scope of your statement "software engineers seem to have a particular scorn for unions beyond the calculus of economics". An unqualified statement "X group believes Y" would normally indicate that this applies to the group, broadly. But in a later comment you wrote "all it takes is one counter-example" to prove this true - suggesting that you intended this to apply very narrowly, potentially to just one person.

My claim is that the majority of developers are anti-union for entirely economic reasons. Maybe you do or don't agree, since the scope of how many developers you are stating harbor anti-union for non-economic reasons remains ambiguous.
... in the most densely-populated area of the country.

Within one mile of my house, I have access to 4+8+12+10+8=42 gas pumps.

There are 129 "public" chargers total in my metro area, and a decent number are at car dealerships (presumably mainly for use for vehicles left there for service) or hotels (overnight stays). I don't know how actually public the chargers are.
We had them at a fab. About $85k + accessories at the time (~ 7 years ago).
You would assume wrong then. The majority of Tor traffic is just normal people, not illegal stuffs.

The regular internet aka clearnet has far more malicious activity and traffic.
> They have no serious industrial policy.

Ignoring how we define "serious", they do have an industrial policy. You just may not agree with the wisdom of the outcomes wrought by the regulatory regime. I don't know how you ever compete with the developing world that has a surplus of people and comparatively lax regulatory framework for everything from labor to the environment.

The policy is to move all the dirty work to someone else's back yard. It seems to work as long as the shipping lanes stay open and the other economies have something to gain (room to grow and raise standards of living).
Cool man, checked in on the story lately? Because literal solar panels are now exploding across Lebanon. I'm sure everyone within 20 yards of them is clearly a terrorist.
> assuming you're sharing customer data. If you don't, there's nothing to do.

This is 100% not true and would be a violation under the GDPR. You need not share any data and if you do nothing, you'd be violating the GDPR.

> Sure, you have to comply with data requests, but if you don't store/share it... that's also trivial.

Nope, this is also not true. At least, it's not just "data requests."

You are in violation of the GDPR.
Try Hack. I've tried many including Jetbrains Mono and Fira Code. Both are really good but I drifted back to Hack. It just hits a comfortable place for me.
Palworld is what happens when Pokemon fans get fed up with the swill that Pokemon puts out every few years.

While the primary goal of the game is to get all of the pals, most of your time is spent putting your pals to work building up your base, breeding better pals, and manufacturing the weapons needed in order to get even better pals. This is a stark contrast to Pokemon games, where you just walk around challenging gym leaders. It's an entirely different game.

So if Pocketpair reskinned a few assets sure, pay Nintendo 5% at most. But those skins had nothing to do with the success of the game and Nintendo doesn't deserve anything more than that.
I have found it to be more trouble than it is worth, as well
Not to detract from any of what you said but the "founders of democracy" i.e. the ancient Greeks had some (nowadays) pretty controversial ideas vis a vis what was considered OK and normal about things like child exploitation, slavery, sexual exploitation etc.
The lawsuit was filed in a Japanese court. What if the company just stops offering the game in Japan? Unless the same patent also exists in other countries (which would require separate lawsuits in each jurisdiction that heavily depends on specific laws), whatever the outcome of this lawsuit won't matter elsewhere in the world, right?
Same thing happened with the Vision Pro. They were available for employee purchase almost right away.
> Days later, a separate company controlled by Mr. Musk, the satellite-internet provider Starlink, told Brazilian regulators it would continue to deliver X directly to Brazilians from satellites in space. Starlink later backed down after regulators made clear the company would lose its license in Brazil.

Probably going to risk losing license again with the latest antics.
Might want to look at PyPy too:
https://pypy.org/features.html
Because it does not work..

Sure, it makes technically harder to block.. But governments don't rely only technical solutions for problems..

China, like Brazil is doing, would order Cloudflare to block Twitter and they would have to choose either comply and help China block it, like they are doing in Brazil, or challenge and not comply and face the consequences and likely a full block..

Having Cloudflare fully blocked in both countries would be terrible for business as they have many other customers so it is economically best to comply and potentially loose one customer then challenge the order and loose the entire market..

I think the games are so clearly different in mechanics, audience and design that, all they have is character likeness infringement. But there are literally hundreds of pokemon, and I have a hard time suggesting Pokemon should be the sole rights holder for "Pokemon like character design".

Given how broad the Pokemon character IP is, I am surprised Nintendo has not been sued themselves. But so different is IP law in Japan that Pokemon itself was altered at inception to avoid being in conflict with an entirely unrelated IP, Ultraman. The game was originally capsule monsters, but Ultraman has capsules, so they changed it, even though the stories and world's mechanics are otherwise entirely different.
> they just break even on Supercharger

So far, sure, but that can change. When most customers are non Teslas, it makes no sense to keep prices low.
I'm being pedantic but it's simply just Tor, not TOR.

https://support.torproject.org/about/why-is-it-called-tor/

>Note: even though it originally came from an acronym, Tor is not spelled "TOR". Only the first letter is capitalized. In fact, we can usually spot people who haven't read any of our website (and have instead learned everything they know about Tor from news articles) by the fact that they spell it wrong.
Nothing to do with its success? All the marketing/hype I saw for Palworld prior to its release was "it's like Pokemon, but fucked up!"

I like the interface - I will say that it doesnt work when there is an ad-blocker installed (the workspace wont open).

When I am into the app it seems the database wasnt generated for items like the authentication system (which I would expect as it is included and mandatory).

Still more work needed but overall it looks great and I can see the advanced workings you have put in behind the scenes to make it do what it does.
Some Gen Z hate audio messages and will not listen to them out of protest, others will send them every day. For most, they're just sprinkled in occasionally in primarily text chats (with their friends - likely not with anyone they're not close with) when there is some reason to send a voice message, e.g. conveying emotion or when typing is difficult.

That's my experience! n≈30 Gen Z.
Given that most things are personal data under the GDPR (e.g., IP addresses have been considered personal data, and things like usernames are clearly personal data), I don't think most companies can get off quite that trivially, short of being completely stateless and never logging anything.
where are you getting that information that it's not the meaning of the word that OpenAI talked about originally? Did they ever promise that the model weights, or exact architecture would be open?

The two patents ruled to be infringed:

'849, that patent introduced "novel methods for presenting applications and advertisements in an interactive service that would take advantage of the computing power of each user’s personal computer (PC) and thereby reduce demand on host servers, such as those used by Prodigy,"

'719 patent designed to "improve the performance" of Internet apps by "reducing network communication delays." That patent describes technology that improves an app's performance by "reducing the number of required interactions between client and server,"
Intellectual property monopolists should not even exist in the first place, much less have "rights" to "defend" in court, real or perceived. The whole premise is absurd to begin with. I can't believe it got to the point where people are debating the relative morality of monopolists defending their "rights".
Adding Signatures to an existing document, no matter the format is just a whole bunch of trouble.
Suing for software patents is... an interesting move.

Working with lawyers in my job they made it very clear software patents are a nightmare to enforce. I think Oracle v Google proves this pretty clearly.
I never played any Pokemon, I always thought it was lame, but I absolutely love Palworld. I run my own server and we still play with others, so this makes me sad.

I stopped buying Nintendo things years ago when they began going after emulators, rom sites, and others actively archiving and distributing these means. I don't support litigious companies and the vermin lawyers.
We call it home-running. My company Fractal Networks is starting with "self-hosted" game servers (on Windows) to get the ball rolling. Check us out https://fractalhome.run.

Software patents are much worse for something fast evolving like video game mechanics were over the past 30 years or so. Imagine, for example, if id software had patented the first person shooter mechanics from Doom. It would have 20 years after that (2013) before anyone could offer a similar FPS and id would have been able to tack on incremental patents to extend their lock on the FPS market for decades longer.

Any conflict would leave the small island looking like Gaza, a pyrrhic victory for everyone involved -- if you're trying to seize more than land. It's conceivable that the country making islands in the SCS would see a mere land grab as a win, doubly so if they can weather the global hit to chip production better than their rivals. It's untenable for the US to have so many critical eggs in such a vulnerable basket.
Don't mind the weird negativity you're getting from some of the comments, this project is awesome and very inspiring! It's amazing to see someone so creative and enthusiastic about what they do. The idea is great, and the execution is excellent as well. The UI is unique and charming, while being easy to use.

People complain about audio being slow to listen to - I don't know, people do listen to hours of podcasts. People do spend hours on tiktok. With enough users and a voting system, the best content should rise to the top. With the playlist functionality, you'd queue the posts you want to listen to and listen to them passively, while cleaning the room or driving to work.

Recording little songs or super short flashfiction stories... With the right creators to make quality content, I totally see how this could turn into something awesome.

One bit of feedback - why require the usernames to end on a number? I want to use a username Im using everywhere else.

Also, uploading an audio file didn't work for me.

Yes, of course there'd be no external effects. I was just curious, since the region between the event horizon and the singularity is an interesting place to think about, even if we're forever confined to predictions rather than real observations.
This article is bunk and misinformation . Employees almost always get a single personal discount on launch day. I’ve managed to score many a launch day product from friends there.

> good luck with that... electrical power engineering speaks in kWh not MJ

Then it's industry-specific jargon. Note that some places bill your natural gas consumption in megajoules. Food energy is quoted in kilojoules in SI, or calorie/Calorie/kilocalorie otherwise.

The problem is that if you want to make any comparisons, you need to use the same units.

An athlete eats 100 Calories, gets on an exercise bike, and powers a 100-watt light bulb for 3000 seconds. What is her thermodynamic efficiency?

To make the 500 km journey, the old car consumed 1 GJ worth of heat energy in gasoline. The new electric car consumed 300 kW⋅h. Which one consumed less energy?

> Particle physicists will hate you if you take electron volts from them

I can understand why they love their traditional unit of measurement.

The problem is that their unit measures the same type of quantity (energy) as an existing SI unit - the joule.

We've seen this play out in countless industries already, where they have their own specific units and refuse to interoperate.

Heating in BTUs, cooling in tons, explosions in kilotons of TNT, barrels of oil.

Astronomy in light-years or parsecs or astronomical units, typesetting in points, football in yards (instead of feet), microscopic things constantly compared to the width of a human hair, ~5 different scales of shoe sizes across the world.

> it is incorrect to attach letters or other symbols to the unit in order to provide information about the quantity or its conditions of measurement

I agree with this rule. I guess if you write it out in words, it would be:

* Incorrect: "Power: 480 volt-amps-reactive (VAR)"

* Correct: "Power (reactive): 480 volt-amps (V⋅A)"

* Correct: "Reactive power: 480 volt-amps (V⋅A)"

Just about all "made in USA" products today are "assembled in the USA from global materials/components." This usually means that the absolute bare minimum of work is done in the USA in order to claim US origin. For example, pillows that are sewn over seas from foreign fabric and the only part that is done here is inserting the filling and closing the final stitch.

The US was once a global leader in textiles and now virtually all of that industry is gone. The same goes for many many other industries.

I am so glad that I'm not the only one. Every time I shut the hood of a car after working on it, I give it a little loving pat-pat.

I have this inexplicable feeling, contrary to my usually rational self, that machines have a sort of soul and "feel better" when they're taken care of, and I feel like I'm letting it down when I extend an oil change/put off maintenance/don't take care of a problem I'm aware of yet. I don't really believe they have souls or anything; it's just a feeling I get.

Come to think of it, I do the exact same things with my plants too.

I can't explain it. I don't name my cars though.
Okta barely supports OIDC I'm afraid. We have to use SAML with them because they don't support a reusable app model for OIDC (a "marketplace app" that multiple customers can use).

> Even 6000 MHz isn't necessarily "cheap low speed" RAM though, it's still a 400 MHz OC on Zen 5/14th Gen. ~$44 gets you 2x8 GB 4800 but it's ~$63 to start with 2x8 GB 6000.

I'd argue that whatever JEDEC specs intel/AMD puts up are mostly irrelevant to the reality of things, and the upgrade minded people won't be limiting speeds because of their speculative future scenario.
This only leaves people who are on a very constrained budget and can't buy all the RAM at once. And they could buy a single 16GB stick and then buy another one later on when necessary. The losses from only using one channel aren't going to be as pronounced as on DDR4 either because of the 8GB's halved bangrkups and DDR5's internal channel split.

> Same for the 9900/9950X class where a lot of the users might be intentionally looking for larger amounts of slow RAM for heavier applications, not necessarily the absolute best bandwidth or latency the processor can manage.

I think DDR5 changes things up a bit here as 64GB is currently easily used and is enough for most, even heavier, workloads. Like for example for HN's audience some programming without worrying about memory being eaten up outside some more extreme cases.
I agree that there's still a lot of people who'd need the ram even accounting for that, but they don't exactly need 80% of boards to have 4 slots
