What I do notice is that the Chinese "rulers" seem to be more concerned about long-term well-being of its people, rather than trolling and performative assholery on Twitter. You might describe it as a dictatorship, but it's m

China is "cooling" certain sectors, to spur growth in physical tech and manufacturing. This is where the future power is - not in social networks and ad sales, it's in stuff . Just look at what happens when we can't man

The problem is that many out there try to copy the dysfunctional FAANG interview style. Google was asking those dumb brain-teaser questions for years, which were obviously useless to the naked eye, and then they realized themselves that tho

I use SmartGit (there are many other visual tools), as I have no interest in untangling the utterly hostile Git command-line interface. Using the terminal to stage chunks of a file? No thanks. I feel no embarrassment about it either. You ma

Dogecoin is literally a joke, and is promoted by some billionaires, who are allegedly smart.

Welcome to broken Capitalism, when the incentives are ass-backwards. Juice quarterly returns, give yourself a massive tax-lite bonus, and walk away from ruins. Or better yet, get in on a con or a pyramid scheme. What's the worst that c

I don't understand how it's even usable if you follow hundreds, let alone thousands of people.

HN is the kind of place where, in response to a joke, the squares will inundate you with links to research papers about how most people find themselves funny but in really they are not, without a hint of irony. I mean, what about all the re

I don't think this is disputed that the original goal of SQL was a flop. The designers grossly underestimated the technical chops of a layman. However, I would argue that us tech people did benefit from that original goal of simplicit

One, yes. It was a fair amount for a hard lesson IMO. But also keep in mind that these people were extremely smooth, confident, and "professional". It was a technique, they were not improvising. The only reason you think this is n

Whatever the bank asked, I gave her all the information. It's insane how easy it was. I had no defenses at all. Moral of the story: please don't store large amounts of cash in your checking account.

I got roofied once in a bar and the next thing I knew I was going back to my place in the back of a car. They gave me weed, too. You are completely out of it, you will say whatever they ask you. This is how truth serum works, at its core. S

The last thing I am going to do is be attached to a piece of code. Most of the code that you wrote in your life? That's gone. A complete rewrite by some punk who did not want to understand it, the company no longer there, or just a fai

In addition, this is extremely hard to enforce. I think the amount of code running in closed systems that does not exactly respect the original license is shocking. What was the last case you know where this was a "scandal"? It on

There is a neural disorder where people can't feel pain, and it's hell. You live your life wrapped in protective gear.

No. I am on HN to get downvotes when I point out that Peter Thiel is a douchebag.

I was being half-sarcastic. But, if you take most jobs out there, and you reduce them to the barebones of what it is you do every day, like really distill it - it's that.

If you have passion for that kind of stuff and that is your "thing", yes, of course. But most of the time, we just got rent to pay and there is not enough room for experiments with your life and career. Experiment in college, kids

Most of your job will involve taking user data, validating it, putting it into some database, then retrieving and serving it, probably as JSON. You may edit an HTML template here and there. Maybe even some configuration work for CI/CD.

No offense, but this makes my head hurt. Is that the real problem, in your opinion? I tried to read the article. I don't understand the point of the point. It's a purely academic, useless bla bla at a time when we may be witness

Incorrect. The United States was a nation, until recently, very recently. There was a time when boys in Normandy left their guts out on the beaches there, so other Americans could live in peace. They were not dying for a geographic area
