you're so old that you use discrete transistors in your CPUs. hahaahahaha

by x86x87 3y ago
lol. you're not that old. remember the days when Intel was kicking AMD's ass and AMD was mostly building a worse Intel clone? Raise your hand if any of the following say anything to you: K5, K6, Duron. If you raised your hand and

these things happen (maybe not at Google) and they are called UX studies. I have been part of them and it's very enlightening for the team that builds something and understands the ins and outs to see just how poor the experience is.

the way I read it is that management is to blame. there is absolutely no way the workers - no matter how exceptional they think they are - can thrive in an environment that does not enable this kind of behavior.

i think obesity is a risk factor but to call COVID a fat people disease is ignorant. There are many other risk factors (eg being immunocompromised) and you may get it (and long COVID) even without any risk factors.

HN readers are 1-2-5 years ahead what happens in the market. you can tell a lot of things that are coming down the pipe if you pay attention on HN. Once the "nerds" give up on reddit it will be an uphill battle to keep the site vi

lol. who do you think does the hard work of keeping the subs clean? agree that some mods could be scumbags but to generalize to all mods is a stretch. reddit without good mods is a guaranteed shit show

TIL. Thanks for sharing this

Also, to get better estimates you need to sometimes do some [research] work. Without it ykur guesses are even wilder but with it you have to ack that you've spent time on it, evenif you never get to do the actual work.

I don't think that's true. The numbers of lost mods/members will matter. Also, this isn't about having a voice.

We'll see. Reddit will not die in 2 weeks that's for sure. But some people will leave and maybe a viable alternative will surface as a result of this shifty behavior

by x86x87 3y ago
Yes. It has happened and there are examples https://www.techradar.com/news/samsung-workers-leaked-compan...

Lol. Sure, make it worse and piss people off even more. What could possibly go wrong? The best bet reddit has now is to just stay quiet.

Idea for a commedy show: the above but actually pay for Reddit api access.

by x86x87 3y ago
The Enterprise also tried solving the ridiculous Reddit api pricing, but could not interfere because of the prime directive.

This whole thing rubs me the wrong way. The age policy is not in place for an exceptional kid, it's probably in place as a result of some legal/common sense measures. This kid appears sort of clueless and the whole thing smells li

I have a different take: i don't want to see any smart devices in my home. I'm cool with having a dumb home.

this is unacceptable :):):) only 21 hours!

read the article. they booted so many times to show that it was not reproducing. it's overkill but you don't need to boot 200k times

If there was a clear alternative they would have not had the balls to try this. For me the blackout was effective. I'm done with reddit. Fuck em

by x86x87 3y ago
What's funniers is that people that use an app are more likely to pay (pay for the app and by extension pay for reddit)

Yes. Musk is actually a shrewd businessman! Got it /s

by x86x87 3y ago
Yes. I'm done. Uninstalled the app yesterday and I am not looking back.

by x86x87 3y ago
Pfff. The environment!!! Do you know just how much power a modern datacenter consumes? Also, if we start dictating what acceptable and what's not acceptable, where do we stop? U okay with me banning something you use?
657.
by x86x87 3y ago
Are you serious? Twitter is in shambles right now. Ads were pulled (59% revenue lost) and musk is throwing a hissy fit he does not want to pay the GCP bill and rent on the office space. Twitter is the walking dead

Lol. What IPO? Do you think anyone is buying reddit stock after this clusterfuck?

by x86x87 3y ago
Subs are not some abstract things where you just slap a new mod on and it's all fine. You may be abke to do this in extreme cases but there is no way this works for thousands of subs

Ideally yes, but the opposite is going to happen. They're gonna push their heads so far their asses they're gonna hit the stomach. CEO and everyone that though this is the way to monetize need to go.
