Getting banned from Twitch can have serious career consequences for streamers and potential streamers. I think the real issue is being banned and not having a reliable appeals process to go through. The appeals process takes long enough th

My view on what the thread is saying, is that having everyone aligned on the same page of how to work and communicate means you don’t waste time on arguing on how to work and communicate. Instead things become frictionless and the organizat

Not impossible. I learned from an engineer to go lay down in bed for 30 minutes and stare at the ceiling. It mostly resets the brain.

I think thorough criticisms like this tend to be reposted because it is like a battleground for the mind - rather than being a coordinated effort.

I will push back and say that the current wave of hype is gambling, not ponzi schemes. Some of it is pump and dump but generally there are cryptocurrencies which aren’t. The gambling aspect came to light with many of the new DeFi apps. DeFi

Time to go research replacements for my network equipment. Ew, why would they do that?

Attack surface, stdlib is one library... packages tends to be hundreds if not more of libraries. Much easier to take over a package than a stdlib.

Staking and inflation don’t have to be bad if everyone can participate in staking and their coins still remain liquid.

So instead of having a complex ethical and moral framework, you turn to dogma.

In phase 2 for analog circuits and DSP you should brush up on discrete math, calculus, and most importantly learn Laplace transforms . That’s the only thing I see missing.

Perhaps “that sounds exhausting”, so that you are communicating that you too would be exhausted by that.

It sounds like he timeboxes his work fairly well. I’ve started to do this and it helps the mind know when to turn on and shut off.

It sounds like you are suggesting it is not E2EE because keys are backed up to Google/Apple. That’s not true, it still is E2EE. It just by default has a backup of the key. Sure, if your threat model means you are worried about the key

Me too! It’s been awesome, it is very snappy and the battery life is 10/10. If I need anything more beefy or better software support I’m just an ssh away.

This felt like something I would’ve wrote in an alternate life, several good observations woven into a hate piece that itself feels like an intellectual VC piece of a different era. I feel the article proved Paul Graham’s point in a way, ab

Tezos is interesting, upgrades happen without forks and are voted on-the-chain. It’s developer-friendly and seeing slow adoption with some governments. Allegedly France’s C3N uses it and Reno is testing it with NFTs. Bonus points for it bei

Facebook forcing Oculus to use Facebook accounts is a small drop in the ocean compared to Google’s acquisition of DoubleClick. I find your take to be disingenuous at best. Now if you talked about Onavo we might be on to something.

Seen some comments in denial about this. Just because you haven’t had a personal experience with this doesn’t mean it isn’t real. I’ve just started to hit, what I believe is, the tail end of my residual effects. I’ve measured lower blood

It’s funny, I worked exclusively with MISRA at the start of my career. Eventually I started a job at a FAANG and received quizzical comments on why I implemented a memory arena. The argument was to allocate memory freely and let it pool mem

How can loading a file be infinitely fast? There is latency to receive the first byte from loading the file.

Seems like a waste of resources to build a car capable of 300-400 miles but software lock it to 200 miles. Ideally not okay but obviously we live in a profit seeking world and Elon and co are no different.

I had a founder promise me millions upon millions with my equity... but even generous valuations - at a “unicorn” - with minimal dilution would leave me with <100K. Quit not long after.

Feels like Reddit is spilling into HN a bit too much, shilling cryptocurrencies so that you can sell your investment and make a large bag of cash.

If you have to ask, probably is a bad idea. There are teams that do good work at Facebook, namely privacy and integrity. You won’t change the course of the ship but if you pick your team carefully you will have a good impact in the world. P

Alternatively they could abolish student debt instead of adding more fuel into the fire. Expensive, but it would free many from a lifetime of payments.
