Yes, because cross-party consensus from politicians is always an indicator of good change! /s I think 'this blogger' (see other comments) is well-informed and up-to-date on their stuff, so they probably have a more well-infor

It's not too hard to think through - They would need to accept and verify a flag from messages that the copycats can't reproduce. At the very least that would require a client update from anyone using official iMessage clients, wh

Even people famous in their time are forgotten in short order. A good lesson for those deluding themselves into thinking they'll be an exception. Better to be remembered as a decent human being to your loved ones.

I think that's a great use-case. I'd love a real-time security scanning system covering as many open source projects out there as possible.

Do you trust Google + Firefox as much as this random developer? Seems pretty different.

No one will do this, and those that read source code during installation do not review it for every upgrade. It's one of those 'just do this!' arguments that has little to no basis in reality. There's more of them replyi

Loopholes will be found, wealth will be concentrated in new ways, and then the wealth will be used to revert laws to benefit the wealthy. The laws won't change in the first place since money has captured most political systems as well.

I think you missed the point. It isn't the CEO who cares about the specific building they're in. It's people like the Blackrock CEO on who massive amounts of investors (and by extension your retirement portfolio) depend on. O

It's community content however due to UG's monetization they are subject to tablature licensing rules (hence why some artists can't be found on there). If you were to gain attention hosting their scale of tabs, you would like

This is pretty nice, and there's already a lot of tools out there. I've built some of my own tools to scrape their tabs and store all my own stuff since I expect they will continue locking tabs down more like they already have. I&

Yep - https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/us-productivity-surges-se... From my experience it's quite obvious that people with families amidst layoffs and a difficult job market will work harder (or look like t

Fear of layoffs has increased productivity over the last 6+ months. CEOs are coupling this with their forced return-to-office policies to paint a convenient story to further both of their goals - trimming the fat and getting back to a statu

All developed nations got there by exploiting cheap/free labor from immigrants, slaves, and oppressed minorities. There's plenty of extremely poor people left in the world, so I don't see that stopping anytime soon. Already,

At this point, your 'quirky technologist' definitely IS the mold.

I agree in general. However much like how the rise of 'script kiddies' meant that inexperienced, sometimes underage kids get involved with hacking, one can worry the same can happen with AI-enabled activities. I've spent enou

A complaint as old as time. The problem is there are engineers who will take your paycheck and build crappier software more quickly, because there's barely any quality regulation for software. That's the difference between softwar

Fair points, and I'd appreciate a source on your last statement from the HN guideline side. I just reviewed them to take into account more nuance that may have been added since the last time I checked. I will disagree with your interpr

As a previous fan of Deezer, it's just another streaming platform. They do have high-quality streaming, but at the end of the day they'll squeeze stream monetization as much as possible, and you still don't own the music. We

It's great that you found an opportunity to teach thanks a low-value comment. HN policies still state that comments need to be substantive. There are good reasons for this that should be respected given that we all take advantage of th

You can write more than one sentence...? How about an actual take on the topic, and then a joke? Or vice versa! Perhaps a question to ask for more clarity? The possibilities are endless beyond a "lol true" type comment.

by BowBun 3y ago
Just a heads up that your comment is flagged. You can definitely joke about things, but HN asks that comments be substantive. Yours was not. I realize the irony writing this comment, but hopefully a bit of community heads up can preserve HN

In your example, bakeries usually don't own land in highly desirable cities, they lease it from the owner. I think that's fine. The incentives here are against huge capital behemoths that can buy land and afford not to develop it,

Again with the dramatics. I'm sorry you feel that abstaining from some modern luxuries is 'self flagellation'. I recommend you travel some more. Your point is moot anyway because I wasn't arguing GP's point, I was s

It's interesting to me how you lob the words 'luddite' and 'wishing misery' at the most basic suggestion of moderation of abstinence from trips to Spain (or equivalent). I shudder at what words you must surely reser

Then don't reply? This isn't reddit, your replies need substance and every passing thought isn't worth submitting. Just a tip.

Yours wasn't a really substantive answer. The next person provided more details and didn't add 'lol' at the end of his short statement. Just some feedback if you want people to accept your points more often!

Absolutely agreed. Beyond the need in the name of science, you're more likely to bring every onboard with an idea if you transparently study and share the pros and cons.
