Yes. Complete a complete slave. LeVar Burton will have to come out of retirement to make a Roots sequel so that the world can understand your harsh mistreatment.

Nonsense. Satoshi’s Bitcoin white paper has a section on Privacy.

This is preposterous. Bitcoin is more traceable, more transparent and more censorship prone than every form of currency conveyance we know of including cash, diamonds, physical gold, etc… The fact that’s 2024 and some people still believe Bitcoin enables privacy just goes to show how crypto enthusiasts are candy brained fanatics.

Principles always follow business interests.

But nginx HTTP bridge with copyright banlist is OK…

Very surprising. Does Korean culture generally welcome foreigners? Can anyone living in Korea comment on this?

I'm about to become a new parent in a few days and reading things like this upsets me.

Parents should be responsible for their kids, not Tobacco companies.

Net income is not cash.

Ever see a PR with 50-100 commits in short succession with messages like “fix”? That’s CIDD.

Frustrating and unproductive day for those trapped in CI driven development mode. Mild annoyance for the rest of us.

Meta’s products have damaged and continue to damage the mental health of hundreds of millions of people, including young children and teenagers.

Whatever their motivation to release models, it’s a for-profit business tactic first. Any ethical spin is varnish that was decided after the fact to promote Meta to its employees and the general public.

Meta cannot be both referee and player on the field. Responsible schmenponsible. True oversight can only come from a an independent entity.

These internal committees are Kabuki theater.

Where can I subscribe for more billionaire lifestyle facts?

What? On his mega yacht?

Because you don't create the future by destroying the past.

You can run ‘git log —-first-parent’ that will give you the same output as squash merging, without losing the ability to effectively manage stacked branches/PRs.

But because GitHub and other tool’s version of rendering history just flatten merge commits into spaghetti we’re stuck with squash merge. Thanks GitHub.

> I'll echo the last part of that post: Beware of doing good things at work; the reward is rarely compensation and is usually more work for the same pay.

Let’s rephrase this in a less nihilistic way: Understand your organization’s values and culture. And beware of doing good (or bad) things in a way that goes against your organization’s values and culture.

If you have a weekend then try to install a NixOS ISO on a VM or physical machine. Then try to configure it with some packages you want.

If you don’t have a weekend, then forget it. Coming from other distros, NixOS is alien tech written by four dimensional beings.

The latter. Over the last several years, I replaced our clever Nix setups with standard solutions. What resulted was measurable increased reliability, performance and development velocity. So I feel qualified to comment.

I still keep an eye on Nix because it has some interesting ideas and there’s clever folks working on it.

Show us the user retention curve :)

Whereas US business execs make mass layoffs while cashing out hundreds of millions in equity. But at least they take “full responsibility”!

We noped-out or Google cloud because of this. It wasn’t hard to drive home the argument after they rug pulled Google Domains.

World: We have a new technology that revolutionize fields such as therapy and personal development.

Zuckerberg: No! Pump their brains full of shit! More shit!

We have it nice in Switzerland.

Imagine if wealthy Bay Area denizens would focus their resources to take care of those around them. Instead they occupy their time with the endless pursuit of vanity, wealth without purpose, and decadence.

Have they upgraded from stone-age era GPUs?

There’s more to having an affair than just the sex.

Because the SEC does not make laws, it only enforces them. Congress makes laws, the court system interprets and establishes precedent.

> It's an issue of incentives

Please do not just oversimplfy a challenging problem into just "incentives".

Some people lack resilience, and they will collapse under the pressures of professional and personal life. Some people lack ambition and drive, they don't want to exceed their level of productivity no matter what you do.

It's not just a matter of incentives. If you offer the right incentives and opportunites to the wrong people, you will not get results.

The right approach here is to avoid hiring these peoples (not a perfect science). In absence of that, provide feedback expetations to provide a resaonable opportuntiy to change their behavior, then move them to other projects or terminate them.

And there are organization where non of this is possible - like government and many corporate IT.
