multifasciatus··on Tell HN: IBM and SAP are cutting thousands of jobs

multifasciatus··on How the marijuana ‘green rush’ fell apart
This is a fascinating change to the arc of the cannabis industry that I did not expect to see. We make the distinction between legal and illegal sales but the market does not care. With decriminalization happening all over I wonder if the existing culture of illegal trade will continue to thrive and always exist to undercut legal sales.
multifasciatus··on Customer who defamed BC company on Google, Yelp ordered to pay $90k
I don’t see this case as a reason. It seems the system worked as intended here. Defendant made very specific claims in their review “charged for goods not ordered”, it went to the judge and the defendant could not prove what they said was true.

Just be careful that when writing a review you don’t lie or embellish the facts. As well as making it clear when you are just stating an opinion. “the goods I received were not of the quality I expected” (opinion based) vs “the vendor intentionally gave me bad quality goods” (speculative and not easy to prove).

multifasciatus··on Ask HN: How did you become a software engineer?
Started in high school with learning Python on Codecademy then solving problems on Project Euler. Went to uni for a computer science degree, which was absolutely worth it to me. During uni I got an internship through a on campus career fair. Currently I write Go and Python for a multi-cloud platform startup.
multifasciatus··on Compiling Rust is NP-hard
> Obviously, every formula can be transformed into this form, by applying the rules of Boolean algebra.

Is it so obvious? Why do so many engineers write with these sort of modifiers (obviously, just, of course, etc.)?

Edit: I am assuming no ill intent from the author. I also use these sorts of modifiers without thinking about them much when writing. I am just curious as to why we as engineers call deeply technical things obvious when they are not.

multifasciatus··on Spotify signs ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ to an exclusive multi-year deal
Makes sense, the success of bringing the Joe Budden Podcast no exclusively last year opened the way for this.

Very interested to see how video will be on Spotify.
