You created a subscription service for power-~~users~~ snitches? This is wild demonstration of misaligned incentive structures at every level.

When it comes to Canadians working in the US on a TN, are we allowed to accept promotions (title, comp or both) without going through reapproval of our visa? Are there any nuances here like caps on how high a salary increase could be before

That’s a pretty strong stance. I’m sitting at my desk doing 133t code challenges for free right now. The idea of optimizing something that both matters and could result in a payout of any amount sounds appealing given my context. I think yo

Your comment reads like the school room dilemma of if your mom gives you cookies to share with your friends at lunch she better bring enough for everyone. This is being done to prove a point, that rust is just as efficient as c while being

The reason for that disclaimer should be obvious, any improvements to the assembly code would also benefit dav1d in c, therefore the rust code still remains worse off by comparison. I’m sure both the dav1d and dav1d communities would apprec

My guess is that the GP put a AI chat bot on their site, and people started asking it for things completely unrelated to his business as a way to get free access to chatgpt without an account. It’s actually quite fun, whenever you see an ai

I was hit pretty hard by this blog post, it felt deep and targeted at me. Not because of code but from a desire to fix the current state of the world and the knowledge that even if I tried I don’t think it would make a difference. The same

I’ll never understand why a company looking for a “founding engineer” would mandate a particular stack… You either trust the “founding” candidate to be a founding engineer and therefore trust their judgment or you want a regular engineer to

My thoughts on security vulnerabilities is that they exist on any out of date firmware and that should be expected. I’ve never rolled back to factory settings and assumed that this device is now exposable on a DMZ. Specifically I’m talking

IMO this is a terrible idea for many reasons but the most important of which is: As a consumer I should have the right to have my device revert any b.s. update and get my setup to how it was the day I bought it. So many companies have begun

It’s not evolution, just look at your mouth breather friend as an example. Recessed jaw, poor intake of breath due to a constricted airway, sleep apnea, gerd, bruxism, cavities… it’s all related.

If that user is banned why can everyone else read their comments? Is a ban on HN different than on reddit or other forums?

If I were designing a system like this, I'd likely implement a reputation system for reporters (users who report, not journalists). When you report content for the first time your reputation score is 0.5, if the content is of a celebri

Just wanted to let you know that your obscured bit.ly links + choice of hiring site which forces applicants to create an account, added so much extra friction to the application process I decided to not bother.

Disagree, shaming someone for poor behavior is how a society operates.

Well, the problem as I see it is, I just gave my 2 weeks notice when I accepted your offer. I might have even given it earlier and pushed the start date a week forward so I could get a nice gap week to decompress between jobs. Now, at this

That's not what's being discussed. Your projections on morality - thankfully - do not make someone a sexual predator.

Yes. This is common knowledge and should be a surprise to no one. What is interesting however, is that despite the risks - which are known to riders - they still choose to ride them. As a rider of a very fast bike, I do wish more people dro

The fact that you don't see the problem _is_ the problem. Fucking with ecosystems using bar napkin math is not a thing we should entertain.

This doesn't make sense or you are omitting key information. If a homeowner rents their place for more than it costs them in mortgage + property taxes and makes $200 on top, that's fine and quite a nice deal. However you're s

Samsung made some folding phone which were pretty close to $3,000 on release IIRC. Pushing-the-envelope android phones can reach eye watering prices, and early adopters always pay up too. Personally I would rather wait for the 3-4th generat

Do y all have really small pockets or something? For women, I get it, your pants don't come with pockets and that sucks. But for guys? I've had a Samsung Note phone in my pocket since the Note 2, they where the model that invented

I personally think it's rational to perceive a round number and a precise number differently. I suggest the problem isn't that we're all a bit irrational, but that we try to apply reason to an irrational process.

The one person whose appearance John Oliver has made fun of more than any other is, John Oliver. Aside from that, he punches up, politicians, celebreties and sometimes just random people, but always in playful manner. Hes quite fond of absu
