Yes, that is absolutely the case, and while Narcissism appears strong and confident from the outside, it's really driven by massive amounts of anxiety and terror over not appearing good enough. Narcissism is really an awful disability caused by trauma that leads to a lot of suffering, not something impressive and powerful.

This is why I suggested stoicism (and modern therapy methods based on it like ACT and CBT) as a practical alternative that fulfills the same emotional need in a mentally healthier, and more responsible way.

It essentially flips this around entirely, and says the only thing that really matters is how you perceive yourself, e.g. knowing you are acting according to your own goals and values. You can only control how you act and perceive things, not what others think about you, and there is no value or point in worrying about things outside your control.

Instead of trying to "look strong" you can actually just be strong- and stand by your convictions and values.

I saw other times Git being related to event sourcing, but the argument is wrong.

Most of the VCSs before Git (RCS, CVS, SVN) used to store deltas and to rebuild the state reapplying them.

The very reason why Git took them by the storm is exactly because, on the contrary, Git does not store deltas but snapshots. Each commit is not there collection of the occurred chances but a complete snapshot of the whole project. Git is very efficient in reusing the blob objects to save space, but it’s still a whole snapshot. The occurred changes are not stored, and they are calculated on demand.

The very opposite of event sourcing, where it’s the state to be calculated and the occurred changes / events to be stored.

Git is really the demonstration that for code versioning state sourcing is way more efficient than event sourcing.
Btw, min_p (the paper about the sampler) got accepted to ICLR! As 4th author it warms my heart to so it used so much in the wild.
To be clear, I mean "boring" in the positive engineering sense of well-defined and reliable. The kind of work that I don't like to do in Go is "interesting" in the negative sense of lots of special cases, complicated branching based on combinations of data, complicated error handling... stuff where pattern matching and use of types like Option and Either shine (hell, even exception handling helps!) Basically the kind of stuff that good engineers would design out of existence if the product managers and salespeople would let us.
Having ebooks at all is a pretty new feature, and their whole thing is being an alternative to Amazon so of course they're not going to want to use Kindle's DRM.

That being said, this is a very new product. I would be extremely surprised if they didn't end up adding a search filter for DRM-free ebooks. For now, you could just search for books published by Tor or other publishers that you know don't use DRM.

Contracts are a fundamental part of common law, why would it be illegal to enter one?

Also, it’s a big leap to prove that exclusive agreements to post on a specific platform is attempting to bury a competitor, TikTok (and every other company) is free to offer exclusivity contracts as well.

Each rust crate is compiled on their own. Means if a library you pull in, needs the same crate as a another dependency, even with incompatible versions, it doesn’t matter. Then cargo understands the difference between test and build dependencies next to the dependencies for the actual lib/binaries.

The fact that each library and its dependencies gets compiled separately adds quite a lot in build time depending how many crates you reference. But you usually don‘t fight with dependency version issues. The only thing which is not expressed in crates is the minimum rust version needed. This is a pain point when you want or need to stay on a specific toolchain version. Because transient dependencies are defined by default like „major.minor.patch“ without any locking, cargo will pull the latest compatible version during an update or fresh checkout (means anything that is still compatible in terms of semantic versioning; e.g 1.1.0 means resolve a version that is >= 1.1.0 && < 2.0.0) And because toolchain version updates usually happen as minor updates it happens that a build suddenly fails after an update. Hope this makes sense.
They could post their content to instagram today and "make" money themselves. I do a little bit of advertising for some projects I work on, we cut instagram because it has the lowest of all traffic. I have videos getting 180K-10K views hundreds of likes and comments on some platforms, 3 on instagram. It's not even worth the effort...

I think we need to turn hiring on its head. I think candidates should post their resumes in a centralized place instead of applying for each company. I'm running https://customizedresumes.com/ as my side project and it shows how applicants can now basically spam job applications. It's only going to get worse for hiring managers.
It makes total sense for a startup to be highly selective. But being overly selective at the CV/application stage is dumb. If they really do have some really highly specialized requirement that should be on the advert. If they don't then being having a high rejection rate at the CV screen stage is going to be easy - it's easy to reject people, but you're overwhelmingly likely to screen out the few candidates that are actually a good fit. So sure, expect a low success rate but a low reply rate is an indicator the company isn't serious about hiring.
Thanks for the detailed reply, I appreciate it

It's crazy, now candidates apply to everything they see with crap, fake, or AI generated resumes, and companies filter most of the candidates out with APS automation, AI, even if you carefully considered a position and spent time on their application....

Candidates generate a lot of crap, companies filter out a lot of crap and more.
Hate it (using the Firefox one). The look is weird, seems to waste space. New copy button sucks. I spent 10 minutes one day not being able to login with a copied password, bit realising it was because I was lacking the second click. Also the new suggested results (when searching) honestly just gets in the way, since the order of the results are not always the same anymore.
> It’s hard for me to see influencers of today as organic users of the past.

They're not, and never have been. Nor are they innocent - they're corrupting and destroying the platforms they're on. And, for all the talk on authenticity, they're the direct opposite of it.

I remain bewildered by the continued social acceptance of this work. We're talking about people who openly accept and refer to themselves using the term "influencer" - a word that's directly synonymous to "manipulator". How much more in-your-face do they have to be about telegraphing malicious intent?
Did you look at the Appearance extension settings? They solve this problem for most people. (See elsewhere itt for details.)
The assertion that "CCPA requires companies to delete your data upon request" is not technically correct. What must be deleted is "personal information" and while I empathize with the notion that would include social media posts, I am not sure it actually does include them.

see: https://privacy.ca.gov/protect-your-personal-information/wha...

The closest thing mentioned is: "Contents of messages (e.g., emails, texts, chats)" but does that actually cover posts? I'm not sure and I can't find an authoritative answer that it does.
Really helpful app, makes it easier for me to post my content across apps, cant wait to have my friends get on the app to so that they can use it to better expand their social outreach
> So you can forget to check an error, not notice, and ship a bug.

How would you forget, exactly? Your tests are going to blow in your face should you ever leave out an entire feature from the implementation.

If you forgot to document that feature in your tests, which is more likely, then you've created a situation of undefined behaviour, not a bug. You've made no claims as to what should happen. All possible behaviours are equally valid.

And no, pattern matching doesn't help you here as you still need to document what happens on those pattern matches. If you forget to document these cases you've still got the very same undefined behaviour. There is no escaping the need for the tests.

It's cool that there is nicer syntax, that your editor can warn you of mistakes while you are typing, and that can save time and all that don't get me wrong, but this idea that you are going straight up forget without any notice of your forgetfulness, as fun as a trope as it is, just isn't realistic.
You are misunderstanding my point. It is because anyone with a non-software moat will likely be able to leverage the benefits of AI.

Apple has a non-software moat: Their devices.

Meta has a non-software moat: their sticky users.

So does Microsoft, and Google to an extent with their non-software moat.

But how did they build the most in the first place? With software that only they could develop, at a pace that only they could execute, all because of the people they could hoard.

The companies of the future can disrupt all of them (maybe not apple) very quickly by just developing the same things as say Meta and "at the same quality" but for cheaper. The engineers moat is gone. The only moat meta has is network effects. That's one less barrier for a competing company to deal with.

I believe HN is a high quality forum that enforces high quality standards, there is no reason this shouldn't be a thing. Companies that advertise here should be held accountable.
One of the most significant use cases that gets impacted is game dev.

Web games benefit significantly from SAB (see the Godot engine for example) and mobile games make up a pretty sizable chunk of app store usage, particularly in app purchases.
>If you want to take matters into your own hands you can view your comments and selectively delete the ones you want down.

Nope. Everything older than 1 or 2 hours is stored permanently, with no way to edit or delete.
> Now, I don't know the Switch SDK and its license, but it is highly likely that it contains things that are needed to build the executable but which are not normally distributed with the console.

SDKs are typically a compiler, a debugger, headers to interact with the system API and a C/C++ runtime. You can compile GPL code with a proprietary debugger, that's not a problem. Ditto for debugger. System headers and runtime are under the GPL exception.

> Nintendo actually has a clause which forbids usage of the SDK with GPL software

That's not a GPL violation, that's a Nintendo TOS violation and up to them to enforce.

> Aside from source code, it also seems that the game distribution is missing the written offer for the source code as well as the GPL license text. This alone would be a violation of the license.

The first comment says they see attribution. So there's a good chance there's text in some game menu that links to the source of the emulator. If not, that's a violation.

As for the game itself, shipping a game + emulator isn't the same as shipping a game built with a GPL library. The emulator runs on the platform and runs the game which can be built standalone.

A similar situation is Linux vendors that ship a piece of proprietary software with a Linux distro. Shipping them together doesn't require the proprietary software to be open-sourced as merely shipping them together doesn't make them the same piece of software.
Exactly this, social media is such an easy boogieman but the deterioration of hope for a good life is a much more realistic root cause.

Addictive and manipulative platforms definitely contribute.
> could easily see people paying 1.5x - 2x

People pay more than that for domestic first class, which doesn’t even have lay-flat seats. $2,500 or even $5k for a New York <> San Francisco 2-hour flight would absolutely sell.
It is related, but tells the same anecdotes, including people complaining (e.g., hurt ego about not getting shortlisted after completing an internship 2+ years earlier).
The TikTok algorithm is generally seen, by its users, as being really good. Once you've spent some time there and your For You Page really gets going, it really feels like it's For You. And the algorithm there doesn't seem to penalize people doing original reporting, current events explainers, science content and educational content, musical performances, tutorials, etc., alongside typical social media stuff like viral challenges and pet videos or whatever. The general "vibe" is that TikTok feels more "authentic," while Reels is mostly manufactured content (dance videos, AI slop, "funny" compilations, lots and lots of ads) and YouTube Shorts is where comedy skits and reuploads of TikTok content go to die.

If you had asked me this question 15 years ago, I would've said never use Rails. I am a diehard python developer, with experience in Java, Go and C++.

Yes, they are. I’ve gone through multiple rounds with multiple YC companies a few months ago before ultimately starting my own venture.
As a YC company that is currently hiring, yes! And all of the YC companies I know are also struggling to find engineers. But the job listings (HN, WorkAtAStartup) practically never bring in good candidates.

A few big problems:

1. AI Spam. I categorized the inbound we got the other day from a job post. Out of 172 daily applicants, we got 22 that looked reasonably like a person, and 150 that were primarily AI generated messages. Which are pretty easy to spot because they're 500 words of tech jargon and rehashing the job description.

2. Purely automated applications. There are a lot of "Apply to 1000 jobs with AI" startups out there that just spam job boards [1][2][3].

3. Qualifications. There is a shocking number of engineers applying to work at an AI company who have never made a single API request to OpenAI. After three years of hearing about AI every day if you've never tested a single inference API then why are you applying to an AI startup.

The signal to noise ratio is so bad that it's better to just do outbound. At this point the job listing is mostly there so we can share it with candidates that we reach out to.

With SkyHunt, you can save a lot of time while searching for the best flight prices across 30 countries.

Think of it like buying Netflix in India because it’s cheaper—flights can also be cheaper when purchased in certain countries.

Here’s a comparison between two similar platforms:

-SkyHunt – Just 3 Steps:

1. Enter your departure, destination, and travel dates. SkyHunt searches flight prices in 30 countries simultaneously.
2. Use a VPN to connect to the country offering the lowest price.
3. Purchase your ticket.

- Other platform - 30 stepts at least

1. Enter your departure, destination, and travel dates. Search for the best prices in Spain.
2. Review prices for Spain.

3. Connect to VPN in India
4. Re-enter your departure, destination, and travel dates. Search for the best prices in India.
5. Review prices for Indi

6-30. Repeat the last three steps for 15+ additional countries to find the cheapest ticket.

31. Compare all prices to identify the cheapest country.
32. Use a VPN to connect to the country with the lowest price.
33. Purchase your ticket.

With SkyHunt, you avoid unnecessary effort and get the best deal in a fraction of the time.
I haven't looked into Boom's business plan but I assume they wouldn't have gotten this amount of money for this long without a plan to make money that at least looks plausible to investors.

Products or technologies that launch new markets often look like 'bad ideas' until someone figures out a way to make it work profitably. Otherwise we'd already be doing them. Paul Graham wrote a good essay on this, saying basically a startup entrepreneur's job isn't just finding a good idea that hasn't been done, because anything that looks like a good idea is probably already being done. It's finding something that looks like a bad idea (so isn't being done) and figuring out it's not bad if you just do it a different way or add a certain innovation. Of course, most things which look like bad ideas are actually bad ideas but searching the edges for exceptions is the valuable thing entrepreneurs do (along with creating new jobs).

Also, you might be surprised there are several companies selling high-end transcontinental private jets. One of the newer features of the latest generation is that they can fly at .9 to .95 mach instead of .8 to .85 mach. That shaves more than an hour off a flight. It's a relatively small market but this new generation has a waiting list of those lining up to pay ~$20M more to save a few hours per round-trip. Sure, it's a small market but it's profitable. Note: I have no idea if Boost's plan involves that market but paying more to go faster, and especially having the fastest option, is usually of interest to someone.
It seems like a really bad idea to combine finances and "free speech" under one company, especially with all of the other volatility seen in US politics.

What if you use X Money to pay bills and then you post something the platform owner disagrees with, what would stop them from preventing your payments from going through?

There have been reports by some X users discovering that their account began automatically following other accounts, seemingly as part of a political agenda. (Similar things were also seen on Meta / Facebook.) Would X Money do something similar and have users automatically make a small donation ($1 or so) to a political cause or candidate?

Right, but does anyone think that that's what people with NDEs are doing?

I don't get what the poster was trying to say. It's like they're trying to debunk something that doesn't exist to need debunking? And the article isn't even about NDEs, like, at all.

I'm just really confused what the point of the comment was?

It's, possibly, not good enough. In case of a fire, if you left all your phones at home, you are screwed.

Exactly because of the fire risk, I set a policy for myself that all passwords should be somehow recoverable only from something that I know. However, I don't meet this policy at the moment.
I agree with you. I actually had a nice group chat with some family members about this particular thing recently. This stood out in particular which my niece posted:

"The only thing China has ever done to me is sell me cheap stuff, which is great because the main way people get money who aren't rich are through jobs, and companies don't really want to A) have employees and B) pay them anything. Companies are controlling everything so everyone I know is poor and just going to get poorer. I don't know how China is supposed to be harming me through Tiktok. I don't know how China is going to use my data to hurt me. Honestly I don't know why people want data so badly when everyone's broke-why don't you already know that. The only chinese stuff I see on Tiktok are people cooking and burning incense. I would understand if I like worked for the government but I work at a fast food place so ... what are they gonna do? Get me fired from Mcdonalds? Lol you could have multiple felonies and still work at Mcdonalds. Now they're gonna take Tiktok away like they take everything else and it's stupid. The other stuff sucks-Facebook is for old people and dumb minion memes, I keep seeing dumb alpha male crap on YouTube, and Instagram doesn't show me anything new after scrolling on it for ten minutes. Why do like 3 companies have to control everything?"

Lots of fallacies and issues with those statements. We had lots of conversation after that. But I think that shows the general mood among those who are sticking with Tiktok. A lot of the value is that it's simply not Meta.
