butterlesstoast··on Oracle slashes 30k jobs with a cold 6 a.m. email
If it's anything like the layoffs I went through at my company, it's always nuanced.

Lots of talented hard working engineers are laid off at the same time that they lay off people just checking Slack on their phone on the plane to avoid taking PTO.

Reading the r/employeesOfOracle is a bit gutting. Hoping for the best for the people. Don't really care much for Oracle; especially their business model.

Anyone else find it interesting the massive set of fines financially lines up with their "Savings findings"?

What struck me as interesting was the bachelors degree jobs on average pay 8k more per year than a masters education job.

butterlesstoast··on Suburban school district uses license plate readers to verify student residency
I wonder if perhaps the noise of families ratting each other out is getting too loud. This sounds like a solution to cut through the noise and have their own data. Like you said, this does go a bit too far. It also does not seem to properly equip the school district with factually correct info. Metal on wheels isn't a good data point for "You live here".
butterlesstoast··on The dead Internet is not a theory anymore
Very fair question. Investing in life outside of the internet has always paid off ten-fold.

Really fascinating paper. I wonder what kind of applications this could have in medical science.
butterlesstoast··on The dead Internet is not a theory anymore
Really makes me wonder. Is there anything we can do to revive the internet or is it time to let the golden age go? : (

butterlesstoast··on The Grug Brained Developer (2022)
Professor Carson if you're in the comments I just wanted to say from the bottom of my heart thank you for everything you've contributed. I didn't understand why we were learning HTMX in college and why you were so pumped about it, but many years later I now get it. HTML over the wire is everything.

I've seen your work in Hotwire in my role as a Staff Ruby on Rails Engineer. It's the coolest thing to see you pop up in Hacker News every now and then and also see you talking with the Hotwire devs in GitHub.

Thanks for being a light in the programming community. You're greatly respected and appreciated.

butterlesstoast··on YouTube will begin limiting access to fitness videos for European teens
Lol perhaps this post title will promote a lot of "I read the title not the article" comments.
butterlesstoast··on YouTube will begin limiting access to fitness videos for European teens
I thought this article was going to be like "YouTube restricted one teenager's access to fitness videos"... but yeah, this is a pretty sane move on YouTube's part.

Just came here to say. This has become my all time favorite HN thread.
butterlesstoast··on GitHub comments abused to push malware via Microsoft repo URLs
Maybe. Haven't tried it. Though, that does make the attack vector a little less intense than persisting even without an issue. At least the attack vector can be tracked.
