> the business would instantly terminate the 80% for cause if they could only discern the difference

There's many many companies and leadership who want their big empires of people. I'm not too sure they want to fire 80% or be more efficient.
That is exactly my point. We have designed the economy with the expectation that anyone able should be investing that much time to make ends meet, when we could lower our expectations and output to ease that burden instead. But that is an entirely radical paradigm shift in the direction of solar punk / degrowth that the world just doesn't seem interested in.

I don’t even feel like this is the right prescription. If he’s trying to say anything at all (which is questionable) I assume he’s trying to say that we don’t move fast enough and make hard decisions, that we put ruinous empathy above the greater good;

But then he just comes and does the opposite, putting ruthless efficiency above considered action.

But then maybe even he has to listen to his own advice. Stop trying to “extend the light of consciousness”, having empathy for people who don’t even exist yet, and help solve real problems.

I think the implicit guarantee is if American business and workers are harvesting minerals then if Russia attacked the USA would have even more incentive to intervene militarily.

That said, I don’t know what more Ukraine would want given the Budapest Memorandum already ties the USA, UK, and Russia to Ukraine’s defense. That’s proven to be a mixed success, as both USA, UK, and other countries have indeed stepped up for Ukraine’s defense.
I just immediately think about the Opera GX ads I’ve seen in youtube videos; it’s perhaps a bit likely that the browser that’s advertised aggressively will also aggressively advertise.

I’m personally sympathetic to the lack of diversity in rendering engines, which makes any Chromium browser a no-go in my case. (iOS sucks; Apple still requires all iOS browsers to use WebKit, as far as I know.) Fortunately, LibreWolf is still actively maintained.
"After the early-2000s dotcom bust, Bain researchers found that stock prices for S&P 500 companies that had no layoffs or laid off less than 3% of their workforce increased an average of 9% in the next year."

Do non-science journalists just not know about correlation vs causation? Does it really not occur to them that maybe the companies that didn't do layoffs were healthier and that's why they overperformed? Wouldn't a 10 year old know that?
Have my upvote, good reasoning.

Still sources like Covert Cabal and others do make me think it isn't only a tactical consideration the russians have made but also a reflection of the fact that they very much do see the end of their stockpile.

> Finally, building HNSW indices in Postgres is still extremely slow (even with parallel index builds), so it is difficult to experiment with index hyperparameters at scale

For anyone coming across this without much experience here, for building these indexes in pgvector it makes a massive difference to increase your maintenance memory above the default. Either as a separate db like whakim mentioned, or for specific maintenance periods depending on your use case.

```
SHOW maintenance_work_mem;
SET maintenance_work_mem = X;
```

In one of our semantic search use cases, we control the ingestion of the searchable content (laws, basically) so we can control when and how we choose to index it. And then I've set up classic relational db indexing (in addition to vector indexing) for our quite predictable query patterns.

For us that means our actual semantic db query takes about 10ms.

Starting from 10s of millions of entries, filtered to ~50k (jurisdictionally, in our case) relevant ones and then performing vector similarity search with topK/limit.

Built into our ORM and zero round-trip latency to Pinecone or syncing issues.

EDIT: I imagine whakim has more experience than me and YMMV, just sharing lesson learned. Even with higher maintenance mem the index building is super slow for HNSW
Wow. In my day it was well-known. HP calculator ads in magazines explained RPN and why it was better.

I've also believed that university is not for me until I found a study that I actually enjoy and which is quite modern.

Like my study, based in Germany, combines coding, design and entrepreneurship. With many opportunities for projects that students can initiate themselves, to work on what they value and enjoy. Something that they might make into a real-world product/service. And classes were very hand-ons, focused on actually doing the thing and not just theory. Also helped that there were almost zero typical exams and each class was two weeks long, two weeks of just that class.

So what I want to say is that there are opportunities beyond the concept of university of a 100 years ago. Concepts that might align more with your values and needs.
Other comics that have left hiveworks that I know of: Daughter of the Lilies (weird christian fantasy, currently on hiatus) In Blood We Rise (idk, I don't read it, looks like gay vampires)

There was a rumor going around that Hiveworks is having financial issues, linked to a post that was then taken down and vagueposting from the DotL person. When I saw DotL move, I figured it was personal drama, and when I saw the one rumor post get taken down, I figured it was inaccurate to the point of being lawsuit material, but SMBC is kind of a big deal. If the rumor is anything, I wouldn't be surprised if SMBC is causation instead of response though and the SMBC move is driven entirely by the annoying ads / shop issues mentioned in their post. Most webcomics do not make a profit.

I think social media discussions of science would be better informed by the concept of a ‘hierarchy of evidence’.

Anecdotal data, n=1 trials of varying quality, correlations studies, double blind studies (with small and large cohorts), studies without attempted replication and studies with heavy replication - they are all provide evidence of varying quality and can inform the holistic scientific picture. They can all serve a purpose such as inspiring further research, providing fodder for meta analyses, etc. It simply isn’t true that gathered evidence ought to be casually discarded if it doesn’t attain the highest levels of the hierarchy of evidence. Neither is it true that some small study showing (or not showing) some supposed effect should drastically change all our lifestyle habits. The truth lies somewhere in the middle. The concept of a hierarchy of evidence can help us navigate these apparently mixed signals so prevalent in popular science discussions.

At first, my goal was to go pure with vanilla JavaScript and CSS, hand-coding Echo routing, authentication, secure cookies, etc., using Go libraries—and I did just that. But as a solo developer managing both backend (Go + SQLC) and frontend (vanilla JS + CSS), it became overwhelming. My co-founders had no concrete feature roadmap, throwing in whatever they thought was good, and our UI/UX designer was stuck with a buggy Marvelous app. Managing both sides while constantly adapting to shifting requirements became exhausting.

To ease the burden, I introduced Alpine.js, which helped, but the real challenge was juggling Go and TypeScript for different parts of the stack. When the team decided to revamp the site with a new Figma design, I switched to Astro after the release of Astro 2.0—it simplified frontend development and allowed me to gradually move away from Go. This wasn’t just about adopting a new language with old patterns; it was about making my workload sustainable while improving maintainability.

A month later (after three years), bad news—they ran out of funding and had no time for marketing. On top of that, I have vision problems (genetic and post-cataract surgery), making job options limited. But one thing I’ve gained from this experience is a strong grasp of frontend performance optimisation—JavaScript, Tailwind CSS, HTML, and responsive images. There are millions of poorly optimised websites that Astro could improve. At least in Singapore, where we have great internet connectivity, I can keep refining my skills.

Astro solved:

- Same codebase: Both frontend and backend with TypeScript, meaning I no longer have to write routers whenever we add a new category.

- Optimisations: Reducing JavaScript and loading JavaScript as a module for better security.

- Maintainability: Go HTML templating was harder to maintain; I prefer Astro’s JSX-like syntax.

- Performance: If I need performance, Bun can be as performant as Go, which is a bonus.

- Reusability: Lots of UI and Astro components can be reuse.

- Productive (Future): I’m waiting for Vite (Rolldown) to speed up my build times. Evan You has lots of ideas for Rolldown plugins.

- Community: Of course, an active community that is improving Astro so we don’t have to reinvent the wheel, with lots of sensible features by default, including Starlight for docs. I proposed to the Echo maintainer to adopt it over Docusaurus, but I was turned down.
I imagine it has to do with not wanting to add anything to the UI, though it wouldn't be hard to support Markdown with no visible UI.

> But the ones being discussed in the article are the consistent ones. The ones you do while you’re ahead to make your balance sheet look better.

That has to be matched with a strategy of intentional overhiring though, and the damage is being done there. That is the insight that should be drawn from the research - intentionally doing something silly (in this case, overhiring) is a classic form of waste and economically destructive. Layoff or no layoff, the problem is the management team has set up a situation where they believe a big chunk of their workforce is unproductive.

This does raising the question of why boards and shareholders tolerate these clowns. To me the obvious answer being that the major central banks have a history of printing money and handing it out to asset owners, so hiring competent managers for said assets is a lot of trouble for limited gains - even weak managers are enough to drink from the money hose. But who knows, maybe the analysts think that a small amount of sillyness averts a greater problem.
> You don't know what you're talking about. People are fired when they can't add enough value to justify being employed.

That depends upon the employer. Layoffs occur for a plurality of reasons and the persons selected for termination are selected by various different criteria that may include quotas or random selection.

How can the editing part be a bad thing? Published writers have editors who check their work before publishing. The result is a work that is more pleasant to read and with less chances of mistakes.

This is reproducing the process with a LLM, which is a great option when you are self-publishing and when hiring a professional editor is hardly justified, as it is typically the case for blogs. LLMs are very good when it comes to the technicalities of writing, which can make them great allies for writing better blog posts. Any kind of writing, really.

Another thing to consider is that the author of the blog post here is presumably not a native English speaker, judging by his use of Italian to make a point. Even proficient non-natives will sometimes use some odd phrasing that may be distracting, even to another non-native.

All this editing is additional work people may not want to do, and that's fine, but for those who do the work, I think the result can only be better.
I really like your articles. Zig has some pitfalls and the official documentation can be a bit sparse.

* Search "API rate limits", get “throttling”, “250 results” limit, and “rate limiting”
* Search issues for "user authentication" to see whether anyone has submitted your feature request
* Search for “SQL injection” to get “database infiltration” or “SQL vulnerability”

I agree with you that anyone who don't get the appreciation they deserve should leave and make it painful for management. But I think whether or not you should keep talking is highly situational. If you have a manager/boss who genuinely cares about you (hard to tell most of the time from personal experience), then the next paragraph of the article makes sense:

> Instead, you should make sure that if you’re unhappy about something, your boss knows it pretty much as soon as you do.

Keeping a paper trail of those discussions also help even if it's just for sanity check for your future self.

Chances are most people won't help you because most people are bystanders or cowards in those situations (anecdotal, maybe everyone I know and I are unlucky).

>So it’s not that white collar workers (or even blue collar workers) try to find meaning in their work. Some do, some don’t. It’s that they SHOULD.

Since blue collar work tends towards more tangible outcomes I would think finding meaning in blue collar work is easier, but that's speaking as an office drone. Maybe the grass is greener, but it seems to me that receiving a broken motorcycle and it leaving your shop running is easier to find meaning in than delivering TPS reports. On the other hand, shoving out burger number fifty thousand doesn't seem steeped in inherent meaning either.

And that illustrates my point; if you end up in a situation where you have a job turning a crank, be it white or blue collar, and it's hard to get out of that situation because it's your only income, then pursuing something more meaningful is very difficult. Maybe you can convince yourself that because your work has economic meaning you are fulfilling someone's needs somewhere, but when you come home too exhausted to enjoy your own time you can quickly spiral into nihilism.
