I suspect it's because of the feeling that the world has gone much further off the deep end since then. In 2017 it still felt salvageable. If the world is screwed, NN isn't as big a deal.
You’re describing insurance. And you’re assuming I said you STOP working, when I did not say or imply that.
> as I watched the video all I could think was "what the fuck did you think they were doing?".

Well, not screwing over their partners and customers?

They didn't have to overwrite existing affiliate codes to make lots of money. And the stuff you list in your last sentence is a really big deal.
What do your kids do then when they start looking for their purpose in life? Have more kids? Lol

Most interesting part of this post (to me) is to see how far the perceived importance of net neutrality has fallen on HN. 96 points in 5 hours as of this comment.

Musk is basically a con artist selling hype and fantasy.

"Full self driving" has been repeatedly promised for over a decade --- and it's still years out if ever using the Musk approach.

But the real mark of a con artist is someone who seeks a political solution to a technical problem.
I am happy to take whatever they offer (including helping for free) depending on where they are at. I don’t need it really and I’m happy to help. But most people at least that I’ve worked with are happy to do what’s fair. I haven’t ended up in a hostile negotiation or anything close to it.
Does this also occur with other 3-argument instructions like ANDN?

Wow -- as already posted, this is absolutely false. This is not at all what happened, the iterm2 folks are way more sensitive to their users' feelings than that.
Private equity firms are vacuuming up houses as they become available. Aging out of homeowners isn't going to help, sorry.

Yes, governance is the answer.
One thing you could do is give me 20k no strings attached so I can stop paying for my parents screw ups from when I was 20 :)) that will make me a lot less resentful towards life's stupid dice.
Calling people NPCs is one of my biggest pet peeves and a dead giveaway that someone is a soulless narcissist. It is dehumanizing in the extreme, the same way Nazis characterized Jews as rats in propaganda. When people say eat the rich… this is who they mean
You can expect anything you want in software you use, and choose not do you software that fails to meet expectations.

A software author who takes pains to publish his work and who accepts financial donations, is likely interested in maintaining his reputation and improving his skill and quality.

Finally, security bugs are in a class of their own. Giving out free junk is OK. Giving out free secret poison is not.
And best of all, not as good, and not open source!
It’s not about living a double life. I don’t secretly blow cash on hookers and blow, I just live a pretty modest normal life and don’t talk about the details of my investments or means. Mainly I don’t have to worry about anything really.
>There must be something like a "sudden wealth-life crisis", comparable to a midlife crisis.

I don't think that's the same thing. Unlike a midlife crisis a too-much-money crisis is eminently solvable, just give it all away. Traditionally the entire problem with being cursed with something is that it's really difficult to get rid of. Money? Very easy, I'm taking checks if anyone is plagued by this condition.

Spinoza thought money would disconnect him from the life of the philosopher so he just gave all of his possessions away and went couch hopping. If you're so serious about lacking meaning due to simply having too much money (these founders are not, they just like to brag) a good accountant and charity of your choice can help you out
For me it’s 3 major things:

- split pane support
- profile switching (I have my colors change for different environments I ssh into).
- tmux integration
Folks using range requests will certainly welcome these as a great improvement. Without them, you need some ugly shell around your curl command to do it right, sending headers manually and slicing files in the shell.

And, if you don’t need them, don’t use them! Have you seen how many options curl has? But never good ones to support range requests until now.
So what do we do when we realise it was a mistake to promote someone? Presumably they were competent at their previous level, so we need a way to demote someone without it being seen as shameful or embarrassing.
I do, and I love being available for them. I have time to teach my kids music and things I know, which is awesome.
The person you replied to wasn't making the argument that copyright shouldn't exist. Their argument is in line with "some taxation" where it goes into the public domain after a while, and they only (potentially) called extended copyright terms stealing from the public domain.
You're both right:

- The FCC's founding mission is to safeguard telecommunications mediums as a commons, to the benefit of the public -- a good fit for the Internet.

- The FCC is functionally a bureaucracy that grants licenses to discrete chunks of very scarce communications resources -- a bad fit for the Internet.

Either way, some agency needs to be put forward as a candidate for preventing monopolistic corporations from abusing the public Internet.
I have seen this, but it's still never competence based.

I really don't see anything preventing someone who's been catastrophically incompetent at every job they've ever held becoming CEO or heading a department. This might explain why cognitive ability correlates much less with earnings judging by NLSY etc. than in the past.

Anyway it's very far removed from the Peter Principle.
Substack is not too far from the blog format.

Quick note that if you use a proper email hosting service, or host yourself, you can add a sender block rule to eliminate this nuisance.
Not every NN development gets a lot of traffic. Maybe it's the day after the holidays. Maybe everyone expects the Trump administration would recind it anyway, and the conservative Supreme Court justices would undermine it. Maybe people see it as another battle in a long war.
I don’t have the stats, but I wouldn’t be surprised if iterm 2 is more popular than Terminal.app. Only power users are using this, and they tend towards power user tools.
I think this is the best advice. If you are going to fund a friend, give them a grant, no strings attached. They can return the favour if/when they have the means on their terms. Anything else is going to kill your friendship.
I am pretty sure he thought volunteering for the Department of Government Efficiency was an attempt to do this
If you figure it out, pass it on to others. I haven’t been allowed to hire Americans in quite some time, and Covid destroyed any company support of an apprenticeship type setup.

The last time I was able to hire an American with a will to learn and an adjacent degree was over a decade ago.

I would say the current lack of editors is a technical issue and not a social one. Most search engines and large-language models discourage readers from going to Wikipedia by hiding the source of the information. The actual technical means the Wikipedia community uses for social communication (IRC, email, Wikitext talk pages) are out of date as well.

We definitely need an official Discord equivalent with wider adoption. I can't effectively use IRC on my phone and computer simultaneously. In terms of editor outreach, I don't have any easy answers. Wiki Education is very good at bringing in editors.

> The body of gpl code is absolutely a commons

You cannot (re)use any GPL code unless you agree to license your own code under the GPL.

You and I may agree that the terms of the GPL are essentially just a way of protecting the commons. I happen to spend quite a bit of time on HN and elsewhere debunking people who cite Hardin's "tragedy of the commons" precisely because that whole story ignores the fact that real commons have historically been managed with a variety of social and civic techniques.

However, precisely because of this widespread repeating of Hardin's use of the term "commons", I tend to doubt that random mentions on HN of "the commons" actually means "a carefully socially and civically managed resource available to all but notionally protected from abuse". Rather, it does indeed tend to be a synonym for "public domain".

BTW, I've been writing GPL'ed code for more than 35 years, and for the last 25+ years, it has been my full-time self-employed means of making a living.
Better would say "After the immediate problem is patched, I will post more details about future plans for security, probably within X days. I welcome suggestions on the feature tracker."

Empty vague promises aren't really better than being quiet. They rely entirely on the reader's good faith, but if that good faith exists (which it likely does for this excellent product and excellent developer), then the promise adds no information.
Regular good old customer service used to be pretty great, but it’s gone way down hill in the last couple years.
I have a bamboo cutting board that I purchased in 2004, and a mesquite wood cutting board gifted to me a few years later. Both look nearly new despite using them daily.

Now I don't cook meat, so maybe that is why my experience doesn't match yours.
People are upset that:

1. Honey makes money through deals with retailers to not offer the best coupon code to the extension's users

2. Honey swaps out the referral code from the blog/video/etc. that actually referred you to the product with their own, even when they didn't find any coupon deal

Merely "Honey makes commissions from our merchant partners" is not at all a "very upfront" description of that behavior. Moreover, many of the people affected by this are reviewers/etc. who have never themselves used Honey so had no particular reason to look into how it works.
Thanks, that makes total sense. I was so focused on the ELF part that I didn't even consider optimizing the initial assembly further. Will fix it and edit the article.
having a lot of money is crazy because there is literally nothing to do. there is no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. if you sit around all day then people who work at local restaurants will start to know you and people here and there will start to recognize you from wandering around between your haunts every day. its such a weird feeling when you realize that the world isnt as big as you thought it was. before having total freedom, you image that even a single metro like sf bay area is enough to swallow you up. its not. the reason it feels so big is because your are busy all the time. and the same goes for the entire world. theres nothing to do here unless you are busy with something. traveling and gawking at stuff is not going to get you very far. that is the terrible and insane reality of life. that life is an illusion. this is part of the reason why so many people buckle under the apparently feather-weight pressure of having lots of money. the other reason is that your sense of identity and self-worth becomes tied to your money. you find yourself completely unable to ask for a lower price, balk at a price or decide to not buy something if there are other people around. because after all you have the money. except nobody has enough money to behave like that. 60M would evaporate very quickly under someone who did not recognize and correct this effect. this is why so many rich people are so comically cheap. they have to be because you lose the ability to think rationally, to thread the needle. you have to just shamelessly be cheap.

elon musk said "vacation kills." hes one hundred percent correct. when you feel totally free you stop thinking in terms of how to protect yourself and begin to explore all possibilities in an unconstrained way. i dont have to be at work on monday so why not climb a mountain? why not go on safari? why not try this designer drug? logic could save you but without the impulse to protect your fragile life, not everyone is logical enough to sail those waters. i almost killed myself twice before i learned it.

the strange and absolutely unambiguous truth about life is that there is no such thing as not working. you must always be working. it doesnt matter how much money you have. the only way to live a good and satisfying life is to work and have enough at stake that you are afraid of failing. it is better to risk losing your money or even your life rather than stop working.
I think people are exhausted from court rulings that rarely appear to be in favor of people over companies. At a certain point the belief in an impartial, consistent and fair court system is eroded to the point of breaking. Why look/care/take part if you don't believe in the system anymore?

Hi there, I'm Gabriel. I was a UX dev who moved to the design side to make a bigger impact on user experience. I'm as comfortable working up prototypes in Figma as I am in Codepen.

To upskill for the upcoming Human-AI design reality, I'm currently enrolled at MIT in a program called "Designing and Building AI Products and Services", and would be open to co-op or part time roles during the class (ends early Feb), although full-time is preferred.

Here's a little fun project I made that builds on Pavel Dobryakov's awesome GLSL shaders. https://codepen.io/VizDevBoston/full/ExqMVZE
O'Brian wrote a very good biography of Joseph Banks, and was the translator to English of "Papillon" and the followup "Banco" by Henri Charrière, before the film came out.

Two books "the Golden Ocean" and "the Unknown Shore" presage much of what is in the Aubrey/Maturin series, writing about the voyages of Anson.
The model of funding investigative reporting via shorting is an interesting “hack” when compared to the often conflicted ad based funding we have had historically.
I have a similar background. I think the fact that philosophy is not required learning in all schools is part of the reason the US, at least, is currently in such a pitiful state. The OP is a perfect example of the kind of mindless, soulless drone servicing the machine you become without philosophical tutelage. I would feel sorry for these people if they weren't in a position to cause so much damage. We don't need fools like this to have so many resources at their disposal.
I've read Wolfstreet for a while now and have yet to read any positive news from it. It's mostly warnings about how bad something is without much balance. I guess if you are down on everything then you are bound to be right sometimes. It's like the broken clock that's right twice a day. It's true but it's not very useful.

This Tesla analysis is something that could have been done anytime within the last 10+ yrs and still come up with the same conclusion: It's overpriced. Yet, it continues to go up. How much should it be worth? Whatever buyers are willing to pay. No accounting analysis will give you the right answer.
I feel deeply for the developer who develops iTerm for relatively very little money, and already took a lot of criticism for the AI integration, far more than was warranted.

I am also also deeply concerned about my use of iTerm now.

I access HPC environments where I may have access for a short period of time. I am expected to take responsibility to clear out my data after use and don't expect there to be any data leakage. If I had been manipulating PII research data in the past year and using iTerm's SSH integration I would be in a bit of a bind and have to send some really embarrassing emails asking sysadmins to see if these logs exist, and if they belong to me, followed by disclosing data had been leaked.

I use some of the more advanced features but at this point wonder if I should be using any features beyond the basic, and then I may as well be using another terminal. I haven't found a cross-platform editor that feels as native on MacOS as iTerm, ghostty included.
I imagine a hokey used-car TV advertisement: "We make conflicts of interest work... FOR YOU!"
I don't see how the court's interpretation provides more certainty than the executive branch's (via the FCC); it's one interpretation or another.

Also, the executive branch has domain experts who understand telecommunications and long experience develping and implementing policy; the court is an outsider trying to figure it out. I'd rather have the experts doing the work.

The courts have been especially unpredictable recently, widely perceived to act on politics rather than the law. The Supreme Court seems to fabricate law on a regular basis. In this case, the executive has virtually unlimited power - beyond legal restraint or criminal sanction - in its 'core functions', but regulating powerful GOP constituents is a step too far.

This is straight up false, you are wildly overexaggerating with zero evidence to back it up.

Incidence of depression in retirement age populations are around 6 - 8%, and the correlation between retirement and depression is more pronounced in women.

Most of the post is disputing the point you're making. Did you read it?
One of the most eye opening moments in my junior dev career was when I found a really nifty way to achieve an operation using SQL alone and brought it to our VP (start up, small company size). It wasn’t esoteric, but used some SQL features not well-trodden by web devs. I thought I was the bees knees and this would be a clear demonstration of my sizable brain. He complimented the thought behind it, but immediately vetoed it as too complex for the majority of developers who would have to touch the code down the road. In hindsight he was completely right.
To me the elephant in the room is the cost of servicing the debt.

Even if the US has a bunch of runway before shit actually hits the fan, 2024 saw over a trillion dollars servicing the debt. That could be funding a lot of government programs instead.
I had a similar idea in mind. Or worst case, if I get bored, I can sell it and do something else! I'd have a lot of money and time.
I just have been trying ghostty recently - the biggest usability issue I’ve immediately run into is a lack of cmd-f to search text (as far as I can tell) —— I’m having to copy everything into a text editor then search. I never realized how often I used that it until I lacked it.
One option not mentioned is to find fulfillment in helping others -- not "helping people making $200K be even more efficient" or "fixing the US government by making it more efficient (mostly by firing a bunch of people, which helps who exactly?)" but people who __actually__ need help -- and there is a very very wide spectrum to work with there of all types of needs. The freedom to deeply engage with that from some angle -- without having the burden of having to also make or earn money while doing so -- is a huge privilege.

I don't know anything about his situation, but I will say one of the lamest things ever when breaking up is to say it's not you, it's me heh. I mean that's probably something everyone hears face to face and I get it, nobody wants to hurt someones feelings to give their "real" reason when what's done is done, but to see it articulated on a blog post as some kind transparent confession is a little surprising.

Like unless maybe you were going thru some massive event that was very clearly damaging to your relationship (drugs, abuse, etc), the optics of finding yourself to end a seemingly great relationship after selling a company for mega millions isn't going to jive with a lot of people. But the again I guess that's the point of the post, there is no point or purpose. Alright, taking off my judgement hat now.
I wondered why my Facebook feed no longer had updates from my friends. Alas the Redditification of Facebook is well on its way.
Don't worry, the next administration is likely to eliminate any rules like that.
I think they put themself out there a bit in writing, which is commendable, and we don't know the full story.

I think the value is to reflect upon our own situations, and mentally file away these stories for future reference and reflection.
They literally advertise this as a feature on their home page in that they give you X% of what they earn from affiliate links. It says a lot about the influencers advertising it if they did not realise that Honey is taking their affiliate revenue while reading an ad that says they do. More realistically, most of them likely did know that this is what Honey does and determined that honey paid more than any lost revenue, but know that saying that would lead to some of this outrage being directed at them. As a bonus, by asking users to uninstall Honey they can have their money from running Honey ads previously and money from their affiliate links too. The only way I can maybe see influencers being unaware of this if if they read an ad that only talked about the coupon feature and they never bothered to even visit the Honey homepage or try it themselves, which would be a pretty bad look for them.

I also think most users that use Honey have to know that this is what it does given that, again, it's an advertised feature. I suspect most people outraged at this are people that never used the tool in the first place.

I certainly think it's a bad product as it defeats the purpose of affiliate links and reduces revenue for anyone using affiliate links for their intended purpose, but I don't think they were misleading anyone about what the product does.
Right, and people must like whats popular! Preferences are false and they simply have yet to succumb to the wisdom of your position!
I keep a Windows 10 installation around just in case, but over the past few years I've only booted it to install updates. I also have some ebook and hardware config applications that I haven't been able to get working in WINE, which I very very occasionally want to run.

I haven't decided what to do. I suspect I'll end up deleting the Windows partition and just reclaiming that disk space.
