Ironically (or not) the author seems like the worst kind of smug permanently online asshole. The “I don’t feel FOMO” thing is especially funny because I clicked on their twitter and they were literally shilling NFTs like 2 years ago.

Yes thats my point. The average person may feel that they are completely free, because they live their lives within the boundaries of what the ruling party wants.

The issue is that American media/discourse paints a very distorted view of what life under authoritarian rule is like. The truth is in many countries, unless you’re some kind of minority, politically active, or in legal trouble, day-to

My company hasn’t hired juniors in a very long time I feel to its detriment. If everyone you hire is a senior engineer, then they’re all effectively juniors, and there’s little opportunity to grow into different roles. Of course people self

I think software should be weirder. If people have ever used the MRI analysis software afni, I think it’s just the best kind of weird.

Budget car buyers likely don’t make a good customer base. People who want their new car to be mostly like their old car probably will just drive the their old car until it breaks down then get a used car. When I was looking for a car I was

I’m imagining some sort of art project where people try and figure out the most complicated software you can make entirely off files stitched together from different repos.

I’ve mentioned this elsewhere, but I think a better question is: do you find AI makes your coworkers N times better. It makes everyone “produce more code” but your worst dev producing 10X the code is not 10X more productive. There’s also a

I think a lot of people would disagree with this article on HN, but I’ve yet to see too many people say it’s made their coworkers more productive. That is, do people feel like they’re getting better, more reviewable PRs? Personally, I’ve be

It’s not really, it’s the kind of thing that only a populist could do. If a Democrat did this, people would hate it for this very reason. This would just another “NeoLib” concoction to screw the working class.

What you’re defending is people willingly giving up their own freedoms because they got outraged over something they read on the internet. And instead of owning up to that fact, saying “oh no, but that’s not what I expected, I expected thes

This reminded me of an old comic or meme about people’s expectations about science that went like: Protester: What do we want?? Crowd: High quality, double blinded, N of 100000, 20 year longitudinal, preregistered studies!! Protester: When

If you didn’t realize that making teens verify their age online meant that everyone had to verify their age and identity online, that’s just a dangerous level of stupidity. The issue is everyone wants some quick and easy solution when the t

If you’ve tried, has it been clunky to run non-python based workflows? I.e if you want to run bedtools or diamond without having to run a bunch of subprocess.run commands?

I think there is a fundamental disconnect in this response. What the user is asking for is for a procedural and cultural change. What you’ve come up with is a technical solution that kind of mimics a cultural change. I don’t think it’s wron

I don’t remember blockchain ever being as big as AI here. More annoying? Yes.

by Bukhmanizer 1y ago
Yep and note that AI is the big exception to that largely due to the lack of established regulation that heavily favours incumbents that a lot of tech ecosystems now suffer from.

I made a comment elsewhere but FAANGs can do aggressive layoffs because the startup ecosystem is so much harsher these days. If (non-AI) startups no longer pose an existential threat to your organization, then why do you need to spend so

by Bukhmanizer 1y ago
The way I see it is maybe more broad. Tech companies no longer see startups as threats anymore (except for AI). The reasons for this involve the aforementioned tax changes, the loss of ZIRP, AI, offshoring, etc., but also include a whole ho
