Censorship and more algo driven content discovery to push ads and approved narratives. Dorsey was probably the biggest advocate for free speech amongst the CEOs of any major company & Twitter is significantly less toxic than Facebook pa

Taxes arent that bad, it’s only considered a capital gain when you sell or exchange. So not really any worse than crypto generally although potentially annoying if you don’t keep it in mind. As for the legality, I don’t think there’s much r

Yeah I’d rather hold assets for anything I don’t have a possibility of immediately needing. Even with more volatile assets like stocks, generally I can expect that it will be worth more at some point in the not too distant future than today

You can make 8% or so with USDC on a platform like Nexo, that’s what I do now. There’s more risk because it’s not FDIC insured but the rates are too attractive for me not to take advantage of it.

Maybe I’m paranoid but I wonder if the whole reason these articles are even coming out now is to help drive price down sharply enough to crush leveraged longs before the bull run resumes

Depends on the job and the industry I guess. I’ve normally had to do 50-60 hours on a salary unless I’ve ran out of upward mobility at a company & just want to coast for a few months until I find something else

I would assume it’s partly because software devs tend to work longer hours and do less stuff socially outside of work than average. As an adult I’ve only dated people long term I either met through work or online games.

I have never needed to reboot because of permissions, basically just had to click “allow” a few times, so this stuff doesn’t really bother me. It’s a very slight inconvenience. Big Sur performance on older hardware has been a disaster thoug

Fuchsia is really the only new OS under development that I’m aware of. And it’s not even clear if Google intends to ship it outside of niche embedded use cases like Nest products etc

It may have been more accurate when it was published in 2014 but it’s definitely not more accurate now.

Was about to say the same. That is exactly how Windows 8 was made. Really wish we had gotten more of a continuation of the design of Win 7 instead of everything else that’s happened since.

There are many things that may just not get done at all though if they can’t be automated, or if automating them would be too costly. Stocking shelves in particular is probably one of those things. It’s hard to argue the labor is worth $26

by jrsj 5y ago
And what can’t be outsourced will be automated whenever it’s cost effective, and our capacity both to outsource and to automate is far greater than it was even just a couple decades ago.

by jrsj 5y ago
Up to a point this would work but there is a point where stocking shelves at all is no longer worth it when the labor reaches a certain price, and they would probably just start tossing pallets of goods directly onto the sales floor and onl

We’ve also completely failed to provide adequate opportunities for these workers to gain the skills and education to be able to do something more valuable with their time. That’s a problem the minimum wage can’t solve. There’s a threshold w

by jrsj 5y ago
It’s absurd to assume that the opposite of this fallacy is true indefinitely though. There is a point where someone is simply not worth employing to do anything at all. There is a finite number of valuable things that can be done with littl

by jrsj 5y ago
This might be the case but many jobs I feel like would no longer be worth paying anyone to do at that rate. That would suggest to me that the productivity of minimum/low wage workers has not increased at the same rate as productivity g

The funny thing is this actually is one of the most substantial upgrades they’ve done on any of their iPads. The performance stuff sure whatever that always happens, but the form factor + pencil support is significantly better. If I were

This is going to be used for entrapment 100% Before they had to enter your life as a stranger, gain your trust, and convince you to break the law. Now, they can assume the identity of someone you already trust and persuade you to break the

As far as UI in .NET in general goes they seem to be throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks, and no one project seems to have a lot of resources dedicated to it. I imagine this is because it’s simply not a priority for the .NET team.

Yeah I think the argument the administration made is a retcon and they made decisions based on bad intelligence that the government would hold up long enough to get everyone and everything out. This idea that their government made a bad sug

Allegedly the “government” of Afghanistan (its really just been a sham and a U.S. puppet state for the last 20 years) didn’t want this to happen because they wanted to avoid demoralizing the Afghan army which…subsequently refused to fight a

I’d just like to go just far enough back to not be around for WW2 so I have to spend the least amount of time in the 21st century as possible. So I guess stick me in 1946.

Most HN users are going to say “yes” because we are generally much higher income earners. Have things gotten better for everyone? Definitely not. Looking at continued increase in “deaths of despair” it seems like some of the changes that ha

There is a subtle difference though, in that imposter syndrome exists based on an individuals beliefs, which could be altered by reading about it regardless of whether or not that thought process is rational. So it could be reality created

I imagine it’s because your personal success as a manager has a lot more to do with politics, taking credit for others achievements, and redirecting blame onto others than actually being good at managing anyone
