Couldn’t they just run the algorithm-based collusion better and overcome any supply challenge? That seems to be the game plan for commercial real estate.

That isn't the "actual article" by any stretch. A corporate blog post and an article from an online news outlet are different things.

> their team should probably spend more time in the office during the new hire's first few weeks too Would this be mandatory? If so, a team member might be inclined to sabotage a new hire.

I agree, I think there has to be something compilable to WebAssembly. A web search shows something that's written in Rust: https://github.com/DioxusLabs/taffy?tab=readme-ov-file#taffy

I think they’re probably paying more attention to gRPC and GraphQL. They have a cloud offering whereas trpc seems to have a smaller scope and prioritize supporting every client and server.

You can see this in that Flutter didn't copy JSX and its usability seems better. Not that I'm confident Flutter is worth the trade-offs.

I looked at a few of them, and they seem to just be wrappers. How would I for example append a row to an existing Google spreadsheet? And how would I do the same with Excel?

This made me think of literally an office, and The Crimson Permanent Assurance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crimson_Permanent_Assuranc... It is quite a story, though. I struggled to wrap my head around them carry

The term "shorts" is also part of that and is what YouTube was trying to co-opt. In the link you can clearly see the word "shorts" being used to refer to these. Here's one from 2010: https://thescorecardr

I don't mind the short videos. What I do mind is that they co-opted the word "shorts" which means something else in the context of videos. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/movies/story&#x2F

If you can afford to subscribe to a paid video streaming service, YouTube will help you to cancel whatever service you have anyways, when you realize you don't watch it enough to justify the monthly fee.

With YouTube not only is it easy to not look for other stuff to watch, it’s easy to skip other activities. It’s low hanging fruit for just about any interest. I’m trying to use it less.

Good point, but this article is actually pretty good. It's also well suited to HN, because he's suggesting we take advice from painters. You know who else did that? pg https://paulgraham.com/hackpaint.html

It's good that it identifies it as a family of languages, and doesn't make it refer to original markdown, which doesn't have code fences.

Popularity is absolutely part of the triumphs I had in mind. It is often a very good thing in open source. It meant Internet Explorer 6 being less popular, as well as Windows on servers. As far as the pathway to being compensated and reward

The debate would be for a new meaning of the term open source , which has already been established. People can create a new meaning but it doesn't change the original meaning of it, which I like to call the true meaning . The license

> What "original community" are you referring to here? It's a big community with a wide range of perspectives, but not so big that it can't be understood. To me the original community was mostly over a decade or two.

I used lower case deliberately as well. It's a term that excludes source available not just because of OSI but because of the original community. And members of the current community can argue for a new, weaker, openwashed meaning of

I'll respond to the little part where it puts using a "non-OSI approved license" under the umbrella of open source. It's not OSI approved because it isn't open source, as the community defined it long ago, and as it

This seems to be geared towards using a heavily adopted format. Some would want to move to binary, but it's hard to find an ideal universal binary format. msgpack doesn't support a binary chunk bigger than 4gb, which is unfortunat

Perhaps Microsoft should just pay them like Google does. Google's payment is supposed to be for search, but some of it has got to be to weaken their position against Chrome. CMV.

They sometimes give a tiny discount, which is more in the form of rounding down. Here’s Discord’s Nitro pricing. https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/4407269525911-...

That's the logic behind Adobe Creative Cloud. A lot of people want something they could purchase outright, and I'll just grab the text: > Can I buy Photoshop outright? No. Photoshop is available only through a Creative Cloud su
