The point is more about reflecting on things that are false, but we tell ourselves to feel better. We don't like to think of a 17 year old as a finished person, however in other ways we try to make them that way. The reality is that ou

The reality is the original story touches on issues that effect all knowledge workers. Since you have to use your brain that can be distracted by trauma and pain (though apparently the effect isn't universal, or "even"), expe

This is pretty typical for industry in the USA and SV. I agree with the criticism, but you can expect that almost everywhere.

IME, it just becomes about: "I shouldn't have to do all this to make my one little change." You need the team on board that there could be unexpected slowdowns, due to the scope of the work being greater (or I guess you can l

Inline assembly arguably not needed, and of debatable merit, vs. writing assembly code. > an instruction set reference I think the programming manual just as important, especially if you're working with mixed asm and c code. One way

Don't forget the heartbreaking betrayals: "I just figure out my husbands supporting a child molester, and even taking their side" "My wife of 10 yearz told me none of the kidz r mine, banged all my friends in giant orgy,

Why is sudafed still behind the counter when now it's not even necessary and it may improve the health of the community if they started making meth with it again?

Too much of this far right libertarian nonesense on HN, has really been grinding my gears. Surprised not to also see someone bring up lab leak theories and anti-covid nonsense, somehow.

> Even when healthcare is available, many of them don’t trust it. Right, due to bad healthcare. The industry is riddled with bad actors, bad ideology, and patient hostile practices. From what I've seen of the system it doesn't

Yeah, even some of the young middle managers really grinded my gears. Not even that young. Late 20s early 30s anxiety ridden workaholics that make life miserable for everyone. They work their ass off to move up, then figure they'll get

I'm saddened to see such disgusting ablism at the forefront of HackerNews. More evidence that SV is filled with close minded fascists. These are people, not useless eaters. Given my experience with HN this type of criticism is high lik

I have no idea where he's getting it from either. Dude seemed to just stress himself out too much. Organizations encourage it, and promote people that do it. It's also incredibly exclusionary. If you have the slightest neuroses, n

You might be shocked how quickly it becomes "I'm an outlaw that can't exist normally in society" It doesn't seem that way to you, but it's shocking the jobs that will be choosy. Things are a bit different now,

What kind of "art work" is being AI'd? Art itself can be repetitive and mind numbing. I'd like some artists to weigh in, if they exist here. It seems like in many people's minds art is something that comes from with

I've been starting to get suspicious that we might see some real movement because of this. People will start being able to compete at these prices. What can a local coffee shop give you for $8-20. Probably a better cup of coffee, or a

It is NOT seamless. Same issues, and more, but worse service, as is customary in EU.

This isn't a view, I would consider it more of a fringe theory without evidence. Nor am I optimistic. Under this "concept", we are actually being held back and robbed. The exact reason this is undesirable won't be the cl

Doubt anyone will see this, but the answer is simple: This causes people problems. Chances are the employee is dependent on pay. Their lifestyle has likely inflated based on the increased resources. Their ego as well. It's almost easie

My views have changed greatly, due to hearing these ideas. I may have ultimately ended up more extreme, but it's not an extreme version of what I had before.

I have a (non-serious) conspiracy theory that the reality of AI is exactly counter to what we think. Once AI takes hold, we will no longer see such extremes of income inequality. With that being the case, there's efforts underway to st

It does. This is a pervasive problem on this site. Also the SV centric mindset, elitism, etc. It's absolutely nauseating, and I'm constantly disgusted that the admins, as well as users like you, stifle criticism of these sentiment

This doesn't seem to work so great in practice. Same story for demotions and pay reductions. Not that they can't happen. It's just not the norm for understandable reasons.

It's often misunderstood, IMO. It's not purely about hierarchies and eventually "advancing" until you aren't talented enough to do the job (because the higher jobs are harder). Lots of the Scott Adams types misunder
