I'm pretty sure I have some kind of skill having been in the industry for more than a decade, and jumped to higher paying jobs several times. Even at the staff/senior staff/principal levels you will still have to face the sam

I'm still not understanding, is the issue that people don't want to give up their own screenshare, or call attendees have technical issues? I understand that video calls aren't as "natural" or intuitive as in-person

I think it's a mistake to assume this will always be the case. A decade ago, more than half my 40+ yo extended family was still only beginning to get exposed to the internet due to touchscreen phones and basic data plans becoming the d

It's bad! I got laid off late last 2022 when I had just joined in 2021 When I got 2021 New Job, I continued to interact with recruiters and even did a few more interviews into December! My inbox was full of recruiters, as it had been f

Pilots and surgeons are following rules to avoid killing people. Make wasn't designed with any of that in mind. It was just one or a few people deciding the easiest path to code, or a style that they preferred. It turns out most people

If it were truly working well, I'd expect Musk's brand new company to HQ there.

More cynically, they think they've hit a wall and a projected GPT-5 won't be a huge or meaningful jump in performance, so they'd like everyone else to slow down too.

But does anyone actually win from this? Has someone behind C-18 run the numbers and found a way that this would increase revenue for Canadian media companies? I don't see how Meta and Google weren't completely predictable, and I

Hang on, the F-150 and Silverado started ballooning in the late 90s. The Hummer came, Nissan introduced their Titan truck in 2004, the Toyota Tundra got massive. All years before 2008. Regulations may have well prevented reversal, but the b

If 50% of your employees get Blind emails, good luck identifying them. I would hope they aren't clicking through the verification email from their work machine, but I've seen some ignorant ICs in my time.

This appears to be a mirror of HN as it was 11 years ago. The site could've been entirely rewritten in something else since then.

No. It’s made up, because whether you claim it’s 20x or 100x or -5x, you can’t defend any of those numbers because of incomplete info.

by raydev 3y ago
Well, guess what? Your starting point is just an estimate and its accuracy cannot be sourced, so this is all meaningless
413.
by raydev 3y ago
I don’t really think of any number, because that would be silly. None of us know the answer nor can we confidently estimate what it is. Therefore any attempt to justify or argue costs by us is useless.

Where do you account for opportunity cost and future growth/loss in these (also old and also imprecise) estimates?

> it would charge devs over 20x what a user actually cost/were worth This is Selig's estimate based on not much info. Numbers like "20x" are completely made up.

Wow, haven't heard the "fark" name in a long time. I understand why this has been posted, but much like ill-informed comparisons to Digg, Reddit will be fine. Reddit has a much larger and more diverse audience now, and likely

That's the thing, because of Huffman's instability and childish behavior in previous years, his words have no meaning here. Reddit is still a decent-sized company with a whole team of people who've likely been running the num

While I agree with services pricing their APIs in any way they like, it's worth pointing out that Reddit's current CEO Steve Huffman is the very same person responsible for editing Reddit user comments as recently as 2016, like he

The Vision Pro is arguably less useful than your XDR since the VP can't run macOS. :p
