disappointing to see so many “hacker” news comments complaining about lack of credentials or system-specific expertise. yes, existing government systems are insanely complex - that’s part of the problem! the essential complexity is not high

Well, it’s a good start anyway.

There's absolutely no reason companies can't issue options that automatically convert from ISOs to NSOs after the 90-day period, and leave the NSOs on the table for ten years. There is no downside to the employee or, really, to th

Hey, great questions! I'm on the Filecoin team (but not the proofs/cryptography team, where the root answers to some of your questions lie). Let me try a first pass and tap out for someone deeper on the cryptography side if needed

Potentially dumb question: how do cheats even work in a game like LOL? I understand aimbots in a FPS and how they can give a pure mechanical advantage, but the LOL equivalent isn’t obvious to me. Does the client have access to data that’s n

For what it’s worth - there’s definitely no speed up, for me at least, to ship a pure handwritten HTML + CSS page vs the same page using create-next-app. The latter makes it trivially easy to add new functionality, etc; the former guarantee

Fortunately, it works perfectly as-is and could probably do so for many years with minor security updates.

Everyone likes to pile on WeWork, and I get it, but as someone who dealt with both startup and solo office leases in the pre-WeWork era: my God is WeWork's model comparatively amazing as a customer. The spaces are nice, there are no he

Sounds like an opportunity to help him get those things at work and mutually benefit the engineer and the team -- or, since he's already "essential," to acknowledge that he's doing his job and not judge him for failing t

Since they added local testing support with `now dev`, I've enjoyed working with Zeit Now ( https://zeit.co/now ) pretty well. They have the easiest testing story amongst lambda platforms, in my opinion.

The only car manufacturer that even offers full priced refunds, and this narrative is that sometimes the refunds don't go smoothly. Weird angle.

@ianjdarrow from the linked thread here. To clarify a little – the idea isn’t that Filecoin would ever tell anyone they have to remove data of any type. Filecoin is open-source software that tons of storage miners will use across diverse le

This isn't something to be proud of. Time-based advancement is a lazy, outdated system. Folks have wildly different levels of talent coming in, and develop at different paces throughout their careers. There are much more important fact

Are you talking about red flags from an investor or an employee perspective? Hard to argue with the latter, as it's completely personal, but I'm also from flyover country and I disagree with most of what you write.

Slow HN is a Hacker News aggregator that allows for easy user-defined throttling of post updates. I love HN, but frequently find myself mindlessly refreshing the page throughout the day. This feels unproductive and sometimes unhealthy. Tool

Or maybe Tesla's "image and vision" stem from its founder's tendency to completely ignore sideline commentary on non-substantive issues and focus on product.

This is far from true. Client-side crypto at least gives you the ability to inspect outgoing network traffic. This should help to keep site operators honest. The site operator can of course nefariously and randomly serve JS that exfiltrates

Anything in LEO will de-orbit unless you actively keep it there, due to atmospheric drag. This is like watching someone drop a ball and asking if they are taking any steps to ensure it will fall.

Notwithstanding all the problems with token sales: I don't really understand Vitalik's objection to the "partial refund model." He dismisses it out of hand as creating deadweight loss because the coins have to be locked

This may be a misconception - a decrease in the rewards paid to miners wouldn't obviously be "made up for" by an increase in transaction fees. The fee is basically a bid to be included in the next 1MB block, so it should be a

To simplify a bit, if your company is based in the U.S. and subject to National Labor Relations Board jurisdiction, this is illegal. Knowledge of this is a nice tool to have in your back pocket while dealing with management and HR. (Further
