AI generated reference that actually just doesn't exist and hallucinated?

Zero risk of that. Libel requires proof, and having this go to court would require airing that proof in open court. If this is truthful at all and it only casts shade on one director, and retaliatory suits would be more harmful to the company and illuminating of internal affairs than this blog post. Any competent HR would much rather mediate in private.

The point is, you weren't the person who wrote this. And I'm glad someone did. We need a little more scrutiny on how given people run industry leading ships aground despite making more in a year than some people make their entire lives.

After 18 years at Google he's likely at a stage in his life where he's at f-you money in his bank account.

If he cares more about the company culture than being rehired by the people that disagree with his outlook, why not let it fly? If it instigates a culture change, he wins at the cost of a professional bridge he doesn't value anyway.

Literally officially breaking out the microwave as we speak, tonight's going to be a ride

MSFT stock already dropped a bit before the bell on the news. That may be baked in by faster movers. This is not stock advice but I'm more inclined to sell NVDA as whatever happens next is a distraction and will slow AI market growth and inclined to buy Google as they have an opportunity here to do some poaching.

But for clarity sake I'm doing neither personally because I'm not a day trader and look more long term.

So move to Europe then. Enjoy your $75k/yr salary with 42% income tax. Other fomments in this thread are using $150k as a baseline salary of reasonable expectation. It's not a big deal to you after all. I on the other hand emigrated from Europe already and don't plan on returning. I make more here now per year than I did cumulatively in my first 7 years of work combined and finally have hope of not living with my mother for the rest of my life and can afford housing. And this is the "it didn't work out" timeline.

And yet, statistically, the vast majority will be healthy. And the ones with chronic issues should know where they need to be on how to manage it. It's down to you if how you want to live your life. Plenty of tech companies that aren't startups. Plenty of countries that pay less and have higher taxes that have the safety net. Pick your lifestyle and live with your decision. I did, took the risks, it didn't pay off, but I would do it again.

This is why dissolution isn't some whopsey-doodle word. When there's nothing left, there's nothing left. If that is a risk, including in that is your private healthcare provision, leave this stuff up to the 20 year olds that don't have the health concerns. Coddled might be too diminutive of a phrase, but if it's a risk you can't live with by your life expectations, don't get involved. Pick another job on the market.

Now healthcare shouldn't be tied to employment, and it's not in my country. But this is the political choices of Americans in America. Not the fault of the individual companies who are subject to the system.

What a lovely way of saying that everyone who doesn't leave the platform is about to become a Ubisoft tier Developer filled with spyware. Burning even their users that don't quit the platform. How absolute this decimation of their user base will be is almost impressive in how destructive this move has been. I almost have to commend it's comprehensiveness.

I'm talking about me. I changed, I matured and took on wider problems. If you read my self improvement as an direcy insult or anything about you, that speaks more about your mindset than anything. And if thats the case I now see why you care so much about your scripts, if you don't have other audiences in mind it has to be the only scope you have to care for.

I'm fine with what my side project is and it's scope. It's secondarily a tech demonstration for the bigger thing that comes later. If that means the early stage is only viewed by 2000 people and improved the lives of some election nerds for no monetary gain plus a news article after submissions close, good, the plan is on track. I'm not trying to be big in this project.

Everything can be circumvented. I but this isn't some SaaS service, I don't need to survive forever, just about twelve hours. I can achieve that.

Yeah, I grew up and realized that there's more to the world than mere developer convenience above all else. If Hacking means siding with the developer over everyone else in humanity and societal benefit, let it burn. Luckily, that's not my definition.

> Don't accept votes from unknown, untrusted randoms.

Trust can be built from metadata. You stop it from being unknown, by shock, building up knowledge through recording it.

> They can't DDoS you if you have them pay for the resources required to serve them.

Not a payment processor. Not a business. Nobody is going to pay for membership. This is not on the table.

> That's fine.

I deeply disagree and you're not changing my position on that nor am I likely to change yours. But I'm the implementer, so guess which way it's going. See: Not accepting your money.

What I have though gotten out of this conversation is that I'm now aware of how much more complex feature set I need to put into the first party tracking to get it right in a shifting tech environment. So food for thought.

One person, one vote. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_man,_one_vote

A core of Democracy is indeed preventing ballot stuffing when people go to upload the vote results they see. We're just not talking about electronic means than paper ones. You say "me", why is your script different from a Russian-style nation state trying to put weight on the scales? Or trying to DDOS the site? And if you are indeed different, to make the distinction in any way, some form of meta information must be monitored and acted upon. You may be innocent, I can not know that in the technological future you propose. Without information, as per security best practices, the wire defaults to closed, not open. The cost is the loss of ease of use and access, but the data integrity is more important than your scripting convenience. The data can at least represent the historical record. Without that historical record, scripting of false data is worse than useless and actively dangerous and not worth putting into the world.

Disagree that that is OK.

A good democracy will have access for whoever requests it to validate and learn about their peers more, not forced behind a paywall. Hopefully by enabling my ethos, it marginally feeds towards culturally maintaining that my country doesn't have a Ministry of Truth and other forms of democratic deficits.

> How are you going to do that?

The same way it's organized among the political parties. Word of mouth, social media and good will among interested parties who trust each other for a common goal of maintaining democratic principles. I don't come from a country that censors such work. Their main problem is it's all pen and paper by people that are usually schoolteachers and farmers on a normal day and they need the tech help.

> OK. Do you accept credit cards?

No I do not accept credit cards. I'm neither a business nor a payment processor. Please contact the administrator. Don't expect a reply. If you have to cold call, you're not in the existing trusted network where others vouch for additions to the network and will be two-factor geo-IP verified. Good luck with your python scraping in your world.

The project I'm currently working on is a community data aggregator for an upcoming election to improve election transparency. I will not be requesting user sign up or registration because the average age of the users will be over 45 and for a single day without getting into GDPR issues.

But I do intend to arbitrate if the election information being input from multiple geographical locations is valid data or not. Otherwise I'm not doing the project and the existing system of it only being owned by the largest political parties who have their own organization doing the tabulation. Others who have attempted this work have seen active manipulation campaigns over the course of their validation and speak to the only way to counteract the manipulation was bot control.

I do not want mass market appeal. I want the thing to get adoption for a day by people that would otherwise be casual at best internet users.

> The open internet is the one where we get to use whatever software we want to interoperate without restriction. It's the one where we get to use a Python script to scrape your site if we wish to do so

Sorry, Error 402, please provide payment. You're a bot until proven otherwise.

There are vast reasons to prevent brigading, false information, information manipulation and any other number of malicious inputs that otherwise in a forum for people require trust to maintain community quality. Even for free reasons, especially say nice interest groups like one I used to be on for small satellites that got destroyed by uncontrolled bot spam.

I do not agree that every piece of the internet "should be" behind a paywall because bad actors exist. That world is the literal death of the "open" internet, putting everything behind a paywall.

Can't trust you either. Are you a bot? Well it's good to assume you are by default, since it's the majority of internet traffic anyway. And for your privacy, you're not exactly forthcoming with data to now prove otherwise.

So sorry, until you pay with a unique individual bank account to prove identity, you can't post on future social media sites. You are a bot after all.

If RISC-V is just their platform to provide a different company to license IP from, I'm just sticking to Arm.

RISC-V is only interesting as a platform for a different business model.

Please look up the family of Enoch Burke (and siblings) as of late and what his mother who home-schooled the whole family on the basis of religious ground has wrought lately.[0]

It does happen, how ever you wish to disparage others for factual statements.

Not ergonomic for use by providing a public trait API in a library when step one is [also] import this other hack library to get up and running.

Coming in 1.74 apparently but it seems to be behind schedule by what the plan was in the Gantt chart.

It's a feature I'm eagerly keeping tabs on as it have so many hacks in my active work that will [just work] once I can use async traits.

Beresheet: 1,300 lbs

Danuri: 1,495 lbs

Hakuto-R: 2,200 lbs

DART: 1,340 lbs

Artemis 2: 112,000 lbs

Even by your examples there remains a 10,000% to 5,000% fold scale difference. And SpaceX agrees with this. This difference in scale is why they are working on Starship.

In other news it cost me $1500 to do a year of grocery shopping trips while it cost $1500 for one transatlantic return trip holiday.

Apples to oranges comparison. 400km to low earth orbit is not compatible to a 384400km trip to another gravity well.

I know I gave up on it anyway without desktop. But what I really gave up on was lack of discovery on how to get my twitter network replicated. I was at least able to do that with Mastodon for all its UX sins.

Today might be a bit soon. We only caught wind of this Tuesday and there's about two days of cooking to be done in the process. Friday if someone is basically livestreaming and literally had everything on hand. My guess is more likely Monday for the aggressive builders that get it right the first time (if it's able to be got right). Then Wednesday/next Thursday for attempt number 2 to complete out for some people.

And say what you want about her, but nobody ever said she was one for wavering. In everything she did she committed to and knew all about owning consequences.

If she was suicidal, and she had the track record, she was well able to have follow through on this also.

Whatever you believe, just for her sake, I genuinely hope she's now reunited with her son to get some peace.

In the immediate short term, the power level supported is too low for the real shiny applications that everyone talks about.

But the main one that is screaming at me for this technology sitting in front of us is SQUID sensors and RF antennas that will operate in the lower power range of the potential applications spectrum.

The Brit needs to engage in his Paddy bashing.

0.5% is an EU regulation than Ireland specific. And apparently the same level in the US from my (just done now) googling.
