Tangential: Email spamming is out of control. My fucking hair salon wants me to add 2 factor authentication, and still sends me emails with an OTP. Login and guess what? They’ll send you moar emails to fucking confirm it’s me. Guys, we are

Then every employee should be ready to sacrifice their personal net worth if the company makes losses. They can reap the benefit, but also take losses. Seems entirely fair.

Agreed, there is no such thing as perfect software. In physical world, you can specify a tolerance of 0.0005 in but the part is going to cost $25k a piece. It is trivially easy to specify tolerance, very hard to engineer a whole system that

Why is this type of a comment upvoted to the top? It's a knee jerk reaction to the midwit zeitgeist. No real understanding of how the real world operates. No maturity or thoughtfulness. Totally misleading prognosis. Misleading advice.

You're making an assumption that a hospital is a monopoly. I explicitly said "unless it's a monopoly". Ok, if "many areas have one hospital"... I don't think that's true at all . Most areas have mult

Wait… what’s wrong with motivated by profit? If the service sucks, they’ll lose customers. Focusing on profit is fundamentally sound unless you’re a monopoly, which tend to be when Gov sticks its beak into things it shouldn’t.

Slightly tangent: being substantively patriotic is cool. It should be cool. America has done some incredible things like this and I’m sure it’s not just Americans that find it cool.

CEO can say it is his fiduciary duty to phase out old software and put a brand spanking new modern enterprise grade system. Also, still it is not illegal. Just that the shareholders need to sue him to matter at all.

LED light bulbs suck for the most part. After all these years, we still don't have the following: - 3000K-1800K dimming characteristics like halogen - 100 CRI - Truly Flicker-free LED lights have only 2 things going for it: Long life a

I feel like it has become a degrowth cult, may be not on HN but your random Karen in Oakland wants to cut down on energy usage all-together, not realizing that China is polluting on a monumental scale without remorse. Climate cult makes no

Mostly going to inadequate and incompetent new hires. We're not selecting based on merit and competence. We make a big deal out of interview process in Software engineering. But when it comes to critical life/death situation jobs,

In order to drive this point—What kind of arbitrary safety policies are ATCs to expect and service? If there are 200 airlines landing at SFO, you surely cannot expect ATC to make exceptions and argue about this or that. We need upfront, tra

Is it just the model that needs to be open source? I thought the big secret sauce is the sources of data that is used to train the models. Without this, the model itself is useless quite literally.

Strange accusation. I don’t see such comments that lived with the trial version. Can you back up your astroturfing claim with explicit links to each comment that fits your description? Because I found none.

Americans should do the exact opposite of whatever Europeans are doing. It's like instead of inverse-Cramer, we have inverse-Europe index.
