This is all true, but acknowledging the harms caused to lives by layoffs is unpopular with the bootlicking type that's so prominent on HN. People are right to want to see real, impactful consequences for leaders who "take full res

> At the end of the day, you still don't have the phone whether the thief profits from it or not. I care a lot about some low life scumbag not profiting from it. Anything that discourages theft is great.

> Magnitogorsk has nice weather in summer. Some green parks, decent public transport. But not that much fun, westerners usually prefer university cities. It has very nice surrounding nature. Sounds like a lot of western cities honestly.

An areal photo during the winter isn't very fair to the city. Looking around on street view during the summer months it doesn't look nearly as bad. A bit run down, but that's common for nearly all ex-soviet cities.

Most of the big AI models aren't open source and even if they were? You can absolutely regulate them.

One a thief always a thief, there's a reason it was punished so severely throughout history. Theft has the highest recidivism rate too[1]. You can never trust someone who has stolen again, thieves are the scum of the earth and only hur

Stick a piece of photo sensitive paper in a pinhole camera and you're good to go. People typically make them out of black film canisters and such. Google "solargraph"

Please, I'm not in the right class nor do I have the right family to get such a position. Are you a C-level exec? It's strange to me when working class people defend them.

Google Image search has been hopeless for a long time now, you'll get better results typically on Yandex or Bing to the point I won't use Google for images.

You're missing his point entirely. People are trying to make flying out as getting more dangerous, but that's factually incorrect.

It's interesting to see how the DC-10 would have been treated in modern times with social media and mass (moreso) communication. I've flown on Maxes and will continue to do so, even with the problems they've faced a flight on

I'm waiting for it too and I know more cuts are coming that could impact me. The stress is really bad for me right now and I was already stressed before. I am absolutely not convinced that if I lose my job I can easily get another one

Indeed. Cheer on the tech if you like, but don't be surprised when you're out of work for the foreseeable future next.

Well if we’re having a contest for posting long movies, Siberiade is an excellent film that will take 4h35m of your time.

> or where a market failure has failed to provide a decent equivalent A whole lot of weird, or just simply old planes still operate in Canada for this reason. Until this year you could still find 737-200 flights in the north.

I'm a Canadian who travelled to Seattle recently and I found that city legitimately scary downtown. The addicts were unstable and violent like nothing I'd ever seen, even in some of the worst parts of our country. Walking through
