I hate the leetcode stuf, especially for SRE positions. I much rather focus on the systems side of things that I will encounter on a day to day basis

I wonder if one day we'll see the parachuting of starlink satellites on a people as an act of war.

Avoid detection from what? If I were to believe the old media, Facebook welcomes these groups with open arms and have never lifted a finger to stop them.

Exactly. I've never heard a guy say "she would be cute if she wore some mascara" or "I can't believe she's not wearing lip liner". I learned long ago that woman "get pretty" either for other woma

Wow, that's quite involved. Creating front companies, working with universities, etc. They can't be the only ones out there...

It would have been great to see them tell Google to deindex them and then they create FrenchNewsSearch.fr or whatever to actually compete, but sadly they just get the government to do the dirty work.

I can't believe you've managed to fit so many wrong things into a short post. Do you often make comments about things you have no clue about with such confidence? At least this will be a good litmus test for community moderation.

I agree that there needs to be some way for identity to be strongly represented on the internet but there should be a way or places where it isn't required. This could be something that perhaps allows indemnity for user generated conte

That would only measure public content. A large portion of US users have stopped engaging with public content on FB. A lot of people want to use FB to communicate with loved ones and news is just shoehorned in awkwardly. They don't eng

In other words, consider the fact that people aren't resigning in protest as a hint that perhaps there's another viewpoint that you haven't explored and this "news" source could just not be covering it. After all we

I thought they were prevented from doing that (at least at some point, by injunction)

I use to think the same thing, but it seems that HN is both the place where there are cool technical articles and where journalists can pump their tech-clickbait. I wish there was an easy solution.

Meh, I'm over anonymity online. Y'all can have your own 4chans; I'm actually looking for places that enforces a strong sense of identity. Arguing with these GPT-3 bots and the sockpuppets that are created by these "reput

Let's say they are making $80k/yr: I'd offer them a $40k bonus if they stay 2 years and a severence of at least $160k if they are made redundant in the next 2 years. This should buy you some breathing room to show that things

If they are reading this and need an SRE to help out let me know. We are really good at reverting the shit out of an release when it breaks prod.

I'm having trouble understanding your point. >there is no reason to give advertisers anything more than "here is an advertising opportunity for baby wipes", and no other information. That's exactly what advertisers ar

Also didn't they just hire one of FB's former ad execs to head up their ads effort?
