Lionga··on TikTok goes dark in the US
America has genocided 10s of millions for what it is worth. From Native Americans to slaves to all the wars in the last years to "export democracy". If any country can rival China in killing people needlessly it is the USA for sure.
Lionga··on Software engineer pay heatmap for Europe
it is just plain wrong
Lionga··on Platforms systematically removed a user because he made "most wanted CEO" cards
You can not stay clear of "corporate control" outside of the internet either, probably even way less so.

So either be a hermit or teach/learn how not deal with it.

In Germany you'd keep less then 50K of that.
Lionga··on Robinhood to pay $45M SEC settlement over data breach, other violations
This is basically a "get out of jail free" card for lifetime for a tiny fraction of the profit it made them.

So the hush money the SEC wanted is lower then expected, and price of stock should go up.

Lionga··on Ask HN: How to approach first days on a new job as a senior PM?
Love that "senior" PMs need to have exactly zero years experience as PM to be a senior PM.
Lionga··on Ask HN: Has Anyone Else Felt Like Reddit Moderators Are Too Powerful?
Every reddit community (same goes for HN) will only accept posts/opinions pushing their agenda or do not go to far away from it.

How would you expect something else?

Lionga··on Ask HN: Are there any real examples of AI agents doing work?
Cause he can say he used AI and get a promotion and the company can put AI on the website and make stock price go up.
Lionga··on Ask HN: Are there any real examples of AI agents doing work?
Isn't that just simple glorified workflow automation? Shouldn't "agents" do and decide what to do themselves based on the holy prophecy of VC and AI Startups ?

Did he pass the leetcode interview?

I assume she was just an NPC so it does not matter
Lionga··on I am rich and have no idea what to do
You can connect the dots easy when winning the lottery or being Steve Jobs. But for the majority will not magically connect.

In short this is called survivorship bias.

Lionga··on I am rich and have no idea what to do
No understanding it to me points out a monstrous narcissistic complex in you.

While I can understand not wanting to have a kid of your own blood very easy for many different reasons

Lionga··on Hitting OKRs vs. Doing Your Job
In big teams you are right it almost is inevitable.

It is not in small (say below 5 people) teams/ organisations. At least not in the ones I worked in.

Lionga··on I am rich and have no idea what to do
To be very charitable with you: If someone puts all their funds into stocks or similar (what almost all wealthy do) isn't that them letting others decide how to allocate these resources? So they have done all they could. Or are companies outside of the "sacred responsibility" you claim? who decides which organisations or efforts are "sacred "?

To be less charitable you seem like an arrogant person at best to tell people they should always know and allocate resources aligning with your values. I am almost sure all your efforts for this cause while maybe well meaning will be in vain due to your attitude.

Lionga··on I am rich and have no idea what to do
Every right depends on someone else labor to some extend. Worst argument ever.

Greetings from europe where healthcare is free for everyone.

Lionga··on Show HN: Chorus, a Mac app that lets you chat with a bunch of AIs at once
Dropbox ist just curlftpfs with SVN, in other words useless.
Lionga··on What is your bet in 2025?
"AI" (hallucinating LLMs) "solving" healthcare. One can just hope the VC money is not big enough for that horror show.
Lionga··on Ask HN: How does world look like post AGI?
People here are so batshit about AI let alone AGI. Which nobody has even a real definition (just more and more of the statisical interference "AI" is doing now? That's what the new "reasoning" models do), or at best they lower AGI to some useless definition that is still just a LLM all of which often can not even do basic addition of simple numbers.

We are for sure further away in time form any real AGI then we are from a moon landing, most likely further away then from the roman empire. To think or even worry about it is a fools game.

It is so much more likely we just wipe out the planet with nukes than developing an real AGI.

Lionga··on Ask HN: Predictions for 2025?
Please apply as minister of finance for turkey, Erdogan will love you.
Lionga··on Ask HN: Predictions for 2025?
Musk will say the full self driving is coming by the end of the year. This time for real.
Lionga··on Ask HN: Predictions for 2025?
I like how trading cards and BTC are same category of "investment"
Lionga··on Ask HN: Predictions for 2025?
can i have some of what you have been smoking?
Lionga··on Ask HN: Predictions for 2025?
Have fun with turkey like inflation in that case.
Lionga··on Ask HN: Predictions for 2025?
betting on the opposite of what HN predicts seems like a pretty safe bet if you read the old threads.
Lionga··on Launch HN: Double (YC W24) – Index Investing with 0% Expense Ratios
As a market maker Citadel is allowed to do naked shorting.
Lionga··on Launch HN: Double (YC W24) – Index Investing with 0% Expense Ratios
1. Just look at their financial statements they , nobody is allowed this naked shorting but Cidatel is because they are a market manipu ahhh sorry maker.

Not that others won't naked short also, it is just they do not do it openly.

Lionga··on Willow, Our Quantum Chip
Non of that honkey ponkey is needed if you just give up locality and a hard deterministic explanation like De-Broglie-Bohm gives all the same correct measurements and conclusions like Copenhagen interpretation without multiverses and "wave function collapses".

Copenhagen interpretation is just "easier" (like oops all our calculations about the univers don't seemt to fit, lets invent "dark matter") when the correct explanations makes any real world calculation practically impossible (thus ending most of physics further study) as any atom depends on every other atom at any time.

Lionga··on Why America's economy is soaring ahead of its rivals
DAX companies make 90% of the money outside of Germany. Thinking the DAX reflects the german economy is uninformed at best.
