Even if this is true, we're looking at a tight money policy and a bear market in tech broadly with no end in sight. Pre-profit companies need to protect their hides, and I expect to see such reflected in layoffs and attrition.

All fair considerations, but I think the main point is a matter of degree between the two time periods. Surely there were also less visible efficiencies that took place during the first period too, i.e. the electric fridge vs. an ice box, b

Much of that is consumption, though. I don't want to knock consumption, but it's not productivity.

That's what PageRank was supposed to do, though. 4 year olds may be WATCHING in volume, but they're not LINKING content. Links are the lifeblood of the web, a point majorly abused in the Web2/SPA fad over the last 10 years or

It may be, but NO itself is also very much a vasodilator, and used therapeutically for that.

No, because they have a demonstrable mechanism from pre-established science: UV radiation damages DNA, which causes cancer. Their product absorbs or scatters UV radiation. This is the same as the teeth flossing skeptics: observational stud

Standard libraries was one example you cited for a broad claim about "good code". I'm not arguing about standard libraries.

Hard disagree. I wish the world worked that way, but it doesn't. So much happens in the time between the product inception and delivery. Initial proposal of value, prototypes, customer feedback and requests, known performance issues to

Strong predictors of good and bad marriage partners do exist, but I'd caution you against making yourself, wife, and children unhappy for thinking the grass will be greener by blowing up your marriage. Divorce courts have seen many a c

I have never understood how these cars and bikes are allowed to roam the streets like they do openly all day and all night while police used to be so quick to arrest youngsters who jumped turnstiles or smoked weed Because giving chase to

I catch myself becoming more controlling because at this point about 80% of the code base is my code for the applications my team is responsible for. I don't think that's a good thing, at the same time what I find plainly obvious

BEING overweight doesn't, I'll give you that. Failing to take responsibility for it and blaming other people instead of fixing it? We are in moral territory now.

On that latter point though, go look at a US metro region specific tax calculator for those salaries, then subtract an extra $200 a month (or $500 for families) for health insurance premiums, and look at average rent in those areas too. The

Hot take: I read what other people sre doing on HN and I feel like I'm an utterly mediocre dev who's just pushing features at work to make someone rich, and I can't do much about it because I have a family relying on my incom

It has little to nothing to do with genes. You want a productive working class that produces more than it consumes to support the people who - for whatever reason - do not.

It's the same root cause, I think: offline, you have much more context, plus intonation and body language, which lead to the expectation that you will be better understood. Online, it's hard to forget this is absent if you are not

To quote a great pugilist who recently laid his hands on someone outside of the ring (and not for the first time), I think the answer is really simple: "Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not

Why don't we stockpile it, though, like other critical items like petroleum and medicines, for temporary shorateg relief? Surely that's a government failure.

Timing is really important. A good startup sees where things are heading or pivoting. There is nothing that can fix bad timing of an industry or market short of complete transformation of what you're doing. Invest in your employees&#x2

People throw around that word "Neoliberalism" as if its meaning is self-evidently clear. The author cites three elements of it, only one of which (free market capitalism) I've seen consistently used, but that isn't even

IIRC, FOIA does not grant you a right to personal information collected on citizens. The agencies have the right to redact that in whole or in part from the records sought. I don't deny your main concern about left wing issues potentia

There is nothing stopping NY employers now from just giving people enough cash to buy a plan on the ACA marketplace. You're assuming this upcoming plan will have offerings employees will want, and charges employers whether or not this
