Svelte is more like a compiler than a library. The code you ship is plain JavaScript without any svelte dependency. That’s why svelte has always been simple and fast.

Weird conclusion. Power users are often groups of people operating under one account. (Motivations vary) not insane people.

Is a unified account important? For me, no, not really. In fact I think I’d prefer unique accounts per “subreddit”. The way I see it, each “subreddit” is an independently run instance that I can authenticate with. Once it’s set up, my clien

> What an absurd practice. Indeed. If it takes 5 interviews after 4 hours of remote interviewing your hiring process is completely broken. Giant red flag.

Yes. That’s why UBI is a neat idea as a replacement or enhancement for welfare, and other social services. That’s not the context in which we’re discussing it though. We’re discussing it as an alternative to work in a world where almost all

As soon as you rely on UBI to live you’ve lost all control of your own life. Your a child with an allowance. The state has absolute authority over you. The government is already controlled and influenced primarily by nefarious interests. I

Today you need a trained person to guide it. However I’m not convinced that will remain true in the future. The validation of work is interesting. It does seem essential but it also occurs to me that this would be an absolutely horrible and

“Take it seriously” to me means that I’m using AI to be more productive while simultaneously preparing for a future where I can house and feed my family without relying on being employed as a knowledge worker. What exactly that looks like,

Capitalism is too broad a term to be useful in these conversations. At it’s core capitalism just means that private individuals can own property, instead of the state owning everything. Which is absolutely critical for a free society. It’s

Millennial here. By grade 6 (11-12 yrs. old) everyone I can remember walked to and from school. Often with groups of friends. In the evenings my friends and I were free to do whatever we liked unsupervised as long as we were home by sun dow

It sounds like you can’t either. Do you have an example to share?

Yes, it changed his job in to something a 6th grader could do with little to no training. In other words, it’s now a meaningless, low-value job that won’t pay well.

Life is always better than death. If things really do get bad, you won’t be alone. Take solace in the fact that there will be a huge community of people in the same boat as you with whom you can connect and work with.

It’s an interesting idea, but I’m not convinced the average person has any interest in texting or talking out loud to their device to complete all their computing tasks. It’s slower for most things. Also I think there will be little interes

What on earth are you talking about? I’ve been in the industry a really long time and have never seen anyone actually pair program. The entire concept of pair programming is silly. If anything it’s ear phones on and don’t bug me.

by s__s 4y ago
This works well. I’ve been in the industry about 20 years now and every job I’ve taken has had a short interviewing process followed by a probationary period, and then a full time offer is made after the probationary period. I’ve only seen

The unique hard-won skills are what AI can do on the cheap. The more high-level interesting stuff is just creativity, and creativity is a universal human trait. It’s amazing but low value (monetarily). As you often hear on HN, ideas are a d

It undoubtedly varies based on local law and landlord, but where I’m from, as a renter you can typically put as many holes in the walls as you want as long as you properly patch them up when you move out. Same goes for painting and other mo

I think everyone is aware of those additional revenue streams. For the vast majority of content creators they’re a tiny drop in the bucket and the real money is still overwhelmingly in YouTube placed ads. Op suggested advertising hasn’t bee

by s__s 4y ago
Interesting. Can you elaborate? Last I heard creator revenue is a direct result of total ad views. A quick google search would seem to confirm this is still the case.

I couldn’t do that. There are some amazing content creators on YouTube, and to deny them of ad revenue for their hard work would feel very wrong.

Good art (regardless of medium) is fundamentally about communication. It allows us to communicate ideas and emotions in abstract ways bypassing the limitations of language. Computer generated art can’t accomplish that. I don’t see any real

The SM7B is just trendy because a lot of famous podcasters use one. For just recording dialog, or doing video calls something simpler would be just fine. Getting super high end with microphones is only really applicable in the music industr
