What they need to realize is that there are advantages _and_ responsibilities that come with sheer scale. Their apps are rife with misinformation and gaslighting. Facebook has become associated with argument, fight and social misery in the

I write this as a massive proponent of self-driving vehicles. Musk has himself said that the self-driving has to be proven to be orders of magnitude safer than humans. Given that, the last thing you want is a bunch of accidents delaying the

I tend to think that a lot of issues on the global internet are not technical problems. They tend to be economics problems. v6 is a mechanism like container ships. It will dominate when the incentives and disincentives make sense for the pa

I think MSR and Google Brain are counter examples, in that, they do a lot of research and put it in public domain. Apple doesn’t do much of this —- they’ve never really done it. It makes one wonder why.

" Reducing someone's life history to a list of educational institutions and employers feels robotic ... but that kind of behaviour shouldn't be encouraged." Reviewing CVs is boring. They should be made easy for the human

This will sound off-topic. Not being snarky, but genuinely curious about answers: How do you ensure equality of opportunity to all students everywhere if the quality of education they receive is tied to how wealthy their town is? Surely, th

The alternative to H1-B is not open borders… The alternative is a sane program that is detached from your employer’s whims and provides you some stability and control. As of this writing, that program in the US is called a green card. But d

Code reviews help. However, it is unclear to me if PRs are the best way to do them. I often find a walkthrough on a screen share a lot more helpful to receive/give feedback. It also ends up saving time. The downside of this approach is

> I think the biggest problem with code reviews is it often becomes adversarial and people want to come out on top. Is that really a problem with code reviews? Or, is that a cultural issue for a given team?

Ford trades at a Price to Earning ratio of 29. Fold also owns a 10% stake of Rivian. Tesla ratio is 351. It _does_ matter more when Tesla slips up. The expectations from this company are much higher. Your point would be valid if the expecta

This is people being people. Choosing to be merry on a day that they somehow found a way to assign a meaning to. You could argue that this is not a choice but for many it is. One could choose another day, it just happens to be this day. :)

There is not an attitude for the whole thread. Understandably you feel defensive but there is no need to. If you care about this issue, try to get it fixed within your company and move on.

I don’t see it to be the general premise of the article. If anything, Shannon’s original work from 1948 seems to lie at the heart of the premise. Problem 1: OSI leads to a lot of energy inefficiency. It was formulated in a world where netwo
