I'll make more arguments:

1. The questions / answer options are flawed and there's multiple interpretations.

2. The study itself looks to have certain biases on what is right or wrong. Binary biases when life and World is much more complex than that.

3. The study based on the structure seems set out to prove the point they wanted to prove.

4. Many teenagers don't even care about the questions/answers or are edgy and will respond however they want without thought. And that's fine, that's normal for teenagers.

5. Countless of unfounded speculative statements based on those metrics.

Here's one more example of the study that seems ridiculous to me:

The highlighted conclusion:

"""More than 8 in 10 teens misjudge strength of U.S. press freedoms,
compared with the 2024 Reporters Without Borders ranking"""

The scoring method

---

Notes: Results based on the 1,102 teens who responded to this question. Items may not sum exactly to 100% due to
rounding. Rankings of 1-10 were categorized as "much stronger," rankings of 11-44 were categorized as "somewhat
stronger," rankings of 45-65 were categorized as "close to/exactly," rankings of 66-100 were categorized as "somewhat
weaker" and rankings of 101-180 were categorized as "much weaker."
Source: SSRS survey for the News Literacy Project conducted online from May 17 - 28, 2024, with 1,110 teenagers
ages 13-18 nationwide.

Basically they had to pick US as the 45th to 65th out of all the countries in the World for press freedoms ranking. And if they didn't pick in that range, it's counted as "misjudging". That's ridiculous. Why did they pick this range specifically?

It's ironic to me that this is a study on media literacy.

Advertising isn't typically more valuable than the product being advertised (though that depends entirely on the consumer), but what is the product being used by Twitter?

Twitter is using a headline and maybe an image, provided by the news organizations specifically to act as an advertisement to get people to click on it and a link.

In this case, the value being provided to the news organizations is almost certainly higher than the value provided to Twitter. Meta certainly seems to have thought so.

Certainly news organizations should be paid by those who find their products valuable, but demanding payment for small quotes, something supposedly protected by international treaties as fair use, seems rather hypocritical for news organizations who are in the business of quoting others.

Again correlation != causation.

All they said is you can't test it because 'it already happened in an office therefore its bound to office culture'. I am stating that they can't prove that assertion and it thereby does not prove it can't be A/B tested.

It absolutely can, there are entire fields of study and companies that exist simply to facilitate changes and measurements in company culture[0]

Discoverability of comments/dissenting views is the key factor. I would bet that most readers of any given article on the Guardian site did not get there from Twitter, and therefore could benefit from a browser that displayed community notes. The details of knowing how to show what comments where are definitely challenging, but certainly worth another attempt with the capable AI techniques that could address previously intractable problems.

Some questions remain answered from your home page ( from someone at a mid sized firm writing their "build-it-yourself" version of the same goal at largish scale)

1. How often is each campaign run?

2. How does it avoid re-sending the same campaign to the same segment over and over? You really should change your queries with a where close of the last N mins to avoid sending all users all the time. where N is the answer to (1)

3. Is there a way to send reminders, with exponential backoff?

4. My first instinct was searching for postgres, mysql. both were not present. Consider saying supported. and then mention your orm, maybe which all db's it supports.

5. It seems like the channel right now is only email. But it wasn't clear if the channels could be push/sms/etc in the future. Because its likely companies already are accustomed to multi/omni channel. A roadmap would help.

6. Your docs mention the email channel as postmark. but i couldnt find a list of supported email apis. Maybe a way to add your own vendor would be great for contributors.

7. Tools and alternatives to temporal/inngest/hatchet/trigger/zeplo/mergent/restate are welcome, and this seems focussed on messaging/comms.

Kudos to a nice start. Good luck!

It depends a lot.

I've worked with people in person quite a lot--some of which admittedly pre-dated current communication technologies. And some of which was certainly augmented by a fair number of face to face meetings that sort of fell off the table between COVID and tech budget cuts.

But I'd say that, in general, some amount of meeting people locally (including going into an office if people you work with are actually there) is beneficial.

> the interconnect speed between nodes on the Internet is just too low to make it useful

Technically, not speed low, but latency is huge.

For about speed, if you lucky, could build 100Gbit fiber to nearest exchange and this is comparable to speed of desktop RAM (around 40Gbytes, so just 320Gbit). But RAM latency is somewhere around 10ns and on fiber internet practically achievable around 10us to nearest DC (1000 times more).

With 3G/4G/5G latency around 1ms achievable.

Anyway, main question is will to do something. - If person don't want to do, he will not, even if have all need.
Switching between big companies and startups in my own career, I think there's a bit of a hurdle you switching between the two. Both sides view the other as a bit inferior, or maybe that the other side has missing/different skillsets. Startups view employees from big companies as slower moving and more political. Big companies tend to view startup employees as lacking rigor and prestige. Have you ever told an interviewer your company name and then had the interview say: "Hm, never heard of them"?

Loved the article!
> they're probably at risk of the rent getting raised on a lot of it unless they can increase footfall.

Raised, because the property owner has other investments that are affected by the presence of people, such as nearby restaurants and stores?

Or is a valuation of the office property itself affected by how many people are physically in the building or area?

What? It has nothing to do with voting. The endgame is to watch Twitter die, hopefully as soon as possible. This way the scum that the current owner not only allows on the platform, but actively promotes in some cases, crawl back into their holes.

Do you think that the statement

"""More than 8 in 10 teens misjudge strength of U.S. press freedoms,
compared with the 2024 Reporters Without Borders ranking"""

Is a logical conclusion to categorize you to misjudge the strength if you don't put US in the 45th to 65th position from all the countries in the World?

E.g. you put it as 40th or similar, it means you are "misjudging strength of US press freedoms"? I imagine they don't even know half the countries in the ranking beating US, and even less so would they know how the press is for each and of those countries.

What position would you have guessed yourself?
Reading from the petition:

> This petition may be pointless and may not affect the outcome of this season, but if not that, hopefully it can affect Crunchyrolls future simulcasts from suffering the same fate as Jujutsu Kaisen is right now.

I'm not a CR customer, have they ever offered multiple versions of their synchronized on air series （simulcast)?

I'd assume it would only be a single chosen version, with perhaps an alternative days or months after airing, but from an effort and financial perspective I wouldn't expect it.

At no point does the petition ask for separate versions (it argues the dimmed version make them nauseous), it's a commenter that surfaces the option, so I see TFA's point standing.
Oh hell yes, thank you for this.

1. We do have prediction markets -- Kalshi, IB, and Robinhood all offered binary options contracts on election outcomes this year.

2. A ton of options trading is gambling, and binary options on events particularly so. Doesn't mean it should be illegal, of course, but I think that's just a facially obvious truth that we should all be honest with one another about.
It's also a marketing problem. As long as the product is a commodity, it's a margins game. As soon as you can differentiate it somehow there's room to be more expensive and still sell the product.

Just as an example that might be incredibly terrible for other reasons, I can imagine Ikea selling, say, furniture with plastics made from this particular ethylene source. They might explicitly mark it up somehow saying "this chair directly offsets a week's worth of car driving", or whatever, and done right, with the right choice architecture, people might be willing to pay considerably more for it than stock.

I am, as you can probably tell, no marketer. But part of the answer has to be to get it out of the commodity bucket.

One of main differences between a traditional multiprocessing operating system and a real time one is that in the latter each process gets a fixed time slot to run and the kernel provides a guarantee that the process will be preempted no matter what. This gives every process running under the supervision of a real-time kernel a chance to do something useful.

Whereas in non-RT systems, a process may «overstay the welcome», and the time slot it has been allotted may lengthen (e.g. due to a computationally intensive unit of work or a blocking I/O operation) at the expense of other processes waiting in the scheduler run queue.

So non-RT kernels operate on the best effort basis («I will try my best to ensure each time slot has the same duration») vs guaranteed preemption in RT kernels («I hereby underwrite a guarantee that each time slot has the same duration and pledge that offending squatters will be evicted»).

Other than an example with the car, real-time processing is important in the audio engineering or processing where an audio stream will stutter in a non-RT operating system. There are other similar scenarios as well.
The brokers work for the client, renters have no choice in who they use, little insight into their fees (often they are only added at the end of the process, like all good junk fees), and are in no position to negotiate price. Tenants aren't being served by the broker, landlords are. So let landlords pay the fee so there is some downward pressure on broker pricing.
Sounds like a problem of reaching critical mass.
Thanks bosky101!

1. Currently campaigns are oneshot: users enter once and progress through until the generator flow returns. No auto re-entry yet, but planned for 'dynamic' campaigns. They are triggered by events that you can send to the api, or by a user automatically entering a segment.

2. See 1

3. Yes, the campaign flow definition is "just typescript". It's turing complete and runs in a QuickJS VM, and therefore supports exponential backoff.

4. MySQL is supported, Postgres not yet

I resonate a lot with the last part of this comment. It’s not often I hear reference to djinns, but they certainly have seemed real for me. Your suggestion of surrendering to a higher power, in my case Christ (despite not being Christian), was how I dealt with it. The change in my life trajectory after this event was profound, ultimately it was for the better - I believe that it saved my life.
> no, from my perspective, online interactions are very sad and simple, compared to real-world interactions....

All of this is to say, you find it 'sad and simple' and therefore, it is sad and simple?

To be completely honest, this sounds like an inability to adapt to change and not using the right tools for the right job (and/or the tool is available, its not being maximally used). Rather, its shoehorning old things into a new era, which of course never works well
But they don't need to publicly disclose it, so "you" probably don't know the price. Someone does, sure.
Lots of interesting debates in this thread. I think it is worth placing writing/coding tasks into two buckets. Are you producing? Or are you learning?

For example, I have zero qualms about relying on AI at work to write progress reports and code up some scripts. I know I can do it myself but why would I? I spent many years in college learning to read and write and code. AI makes me at least 2x more efficient at my job. It seems irrational not to use it. Like a farmer who tills his land by hand rather than relying on a tractor because it builds character or something. But there is something to be said about atrophy. If you don't use it, you lose it. I wonder if my coding skill will deteriorate in the years to come...

On the other hand, if you are a student trying to learn something new, relying on AI requires walking a fine line. You don't want to over-rely on AI because a certain degree of "productive struggle" is essential for learning something deeply. At the same time, if you under-rely on AI, you drastically decrease the rate at which you can learn new things.

In the old days, people were fit because of physical labor. Now people are fit because they go to the gym. I wonder if there will be an analog for intellectual work. Will people be going to "mental" gyms in the future?

There were like a dozen of topics with thousands of comments, and majority of people were imagining some aliens in that clip. Very entertaining to read sometimes, kinda gives of r/Bitcoin vibes :)
