It's not clear to me if he didn't get invited back, just because of this incident. I'd have a talk with him about it, but lots of people do stupid shit when we're young -- especially intern-young. It's kind of a b

I think from their perspective, the likely $XXm legal settlement wouldn't be worth the time and effort to bring a case against Samsung for this crime. I guess it could go on a backlog somewhere though. Still unfortunate. Anyway, it doe

To me the bottom line of life is to hold on to the fun stuff that makes you unique and happy. Other people practically hate you and pressure you to do things their way. Every time I "grew" it felt fake, performative, and aimless.

I understand this is a bit odd to mention, but it's kinda cool seeing (15) made the list. It's a love-hate thing for me.

I think there's a strawman here. I look for different things artistically and functionally about the things you mentioned. Cars should function well and feel good when I test-drive them, but I wouldn't buy a hideous car. Music is

Of course he's probably getting kicked out of YC for this, but I still feel that most politicians (and tech leaders too, actually) say the same worthless points and don't really do much good in the world. In some ways, I'm mo

In the beginning, there were four elements. Some asshole came over and banged them all together like rocks to see what fit together. The first life on Earth was dragons, plants, and vampires, somehow.

I don't see what's upsetting about the problem you linked. If you don't know what a "greatest common divisor" means, why not search it or put it into GPT? That's the simplest statement of the problem.

Does it? Survival/crafting games are popular these days, including shooters. I think someone was bound to make this kind of game eventually, and it's not a surprise people will play it.

Here's a bizarre story about quitting. When I was at Microsoft, I had a manager who, despite good intentions, led through fear and paranoia. I had gotten yelled at for causing a production incident, which was not the first time, but th

Sounds like you want a perfect, not good, set of goals. It's infeasible to choose a perfect setup up front -- try an agile/iterative approach. I think you're smart, so I believe in your ability to pivot later if you change yo

To answer your question, Azure Devops / Azure Repos (at least at the time) was not inside the Azure portal. It was its own website. Bit of a confusing name, eh?

I'd be interested to hear these horror stories about Msft (are they from the modern era? 2010s? 2020s?). On my old team there, I really liked our build system (Azure Devops/Azure Repos, basically all-in-one tool from issue trackin

Why not just setup a Windows VM and remote into it? I did that with a friend several months ago to play some "local multiplayer" games together remotely, as if we were sitting at the same keyboard.

I think you're right that he stole your work without proper attribution. I'd suggest reporting his Reddit thread(s) if you haven't already. Or start a new thread like this HN one.

Oh, we had this type of issue ("logging lib breaks everything") with a $MSFT logging library. Imagine having 100 threads each with their own logging buffer of 300MB. Needless to say it annihilated our memory and our server crash

I had a very similar experience with a toxic app like that :) I must say that I found a handful of valuable threads/comments that helped me, so perhaps it's not all bad.

Yeah, even if it doesn't become a legal requirement, I could imagine companies asking for FSBoM's from their suppliers -- so it ends up being a requirement anyway if you want to compete with big co's.
