colechristensen 16 minutes ago | root | parent | prev | next [–] That is a very shallow angry view of the modern world which leaves out so many methods the people have successfully used to exercise their power. Voting, for example. I, for one, will likely never be in a position where it makes sense to go on strike and you won’t find me with a pitchfork and torch at the home of the latest social target. There are other methods, and much more needed ones than strife and violence in the 21st century. reply

I just started using sublime again after 5+ years of being on emacs/vscode and it's just so much faster than either. Gotta thank microsoft for LSP because now we get to actually use good editors.

anon291 13 minutes ago | root | parent | next [–] In olden times, people used to be sent to poor farms, where they were given shelter, labor, and food. Yes, there were abuses. But these are fixable ones that we should have tried to solve, rather than get rid of the program entirely. Such situations help people get back on their feet by providing meaningful employment, training in labor, stability, an address, etc. I don't see why this is so verboten to mention these days. I'm thoroughly unconvinced this is a problem of shelter space. I don't know about Dallas, but in Portland, OR we have hundreds of beds going unused every night, and despite best efforts to fill them... we still have tons of street campers. reply

As a programmer my first thought reading this was: If I was designing a program to send me back a message and it was super critical I received it, I wouldn't put any quotes or non-alphanumerics in the message. Even if my string handling checks out, if the stakes are sufficiently high, I don't trust em! reply CWuestefeld 5 hours ago | prev [–] I thought it was pretty annoying that the communications are put forth here as if the lander is an animate thing engaging in conversation with us. Perhaps one day we'll achieve something like that. Heck, maybe we'll send up the grandchild of ChatGPT to be the voice of a future exploration probe. But that's not what we have today. These messages were coded by the engineers who built the thing, and any implication of sentiment is bogus. reply

deserved or not, there is shadowbanning in effect on hn. If you disagree with people enough, you'll end up on the list for offering counterpoints. often it takes bravery to disagree with the crowd, and often only those who are most passionate have the guts to disagree. The funning thing about HN is, we're all typing with our pinkies out, so you can disagree but if you dont do it with the utmost literary elegance and most bulletproof logic, it doesn't matter how right you were. Instead, what matters is that for a moment you stepped outside the parameters of gentility and your comments will be held for further review... forever. Bravery and fact are not always intertwined, but you will nonetheless pay the price for your bravery. Don't be brave here unless you're confident in your abilities of presenting a point covertly.

noduerme 29 minutes ago | root | parent | next [–] >> what good are the kids of tomorrow without the old of today Worshipping youth in its ignorance and speed while discarding the wisdom of elders is called fascism. The right question would be what can civilization hope to achieve besides a reversion to barbarism and "Lord of the Flies" if it doesn't hold its oldest, most vulnerable and most wise members, and their experience, in the highest regard? The young have always been proud and disposable. And if they don't die young, they get old. Then maybe they have something more interesting to say. reply

wincy 41 minutes ago | parent | context | flag | favorite | on: Maids trafficked and sold to wealthy Saudis on bla... Okay but we agreed it was wrong and basically forced the Aztecs to stop sacrificing people to their sun god. I don’t think you’ll find a sane individual today advocating for child sacrifice to make sure the sun comes up in the morning. The Aztecs certainly would have preferred to keep being on top and brutalizing the other tribes around them. Is this a lack of cultural diversity? When do we stop respecting cultural diversity and step in to do what we believe to be the right thing?

Re: 285k people purchased Tesla FSD Queue29 39 minutes ago | prev [–] I wonder what percentage of those feel they got their money's worth. fnordpiglet 32 minutes ago | parent | next [–] I bought it, but I bought it as a donation towards funding R&D in the space of autonomous driving. I’ve found FSD useless outside of highway driving, which adaptive cruise control does ok at. That has however changed in the last year and the FSD has improved dramatically over months to the point I can reasonably navigate door to door in a hostile and negligently adversarial driving environment like seattle without fear of imminent death. If I were evaluating it on “what could I have materially attained for the price of FSD” I don’t think I got a good deal. But again, I didn’t spend the money with that in mind. I bought it with the idea that $3b in consumer crowd funding of FSD will materially advance the end of human intermediated driving - which I think is akin to curing cancer.

IshKebab 1 day ago | parent | context | favorite | on: An M1 for Curl > Apple has shipped and used curl in their products for twenty years but they never assist, help or otherwise contribute to the development. They also don’t sponsor us in any way, like with hardware. Do they have an obligation to? Even a moral one? Honestly I don't think (I hope!) Apple actually uses curl in their products (probably a good thing). It's just provided as a convenience to developers who might be used to it. I got curious about Apple's use of Curl and Googled it. One of the top hits was another blog post complaining about Apple not donating Macs: I think you could replace 99% of the uses of Curl (download one file via HTTPS) with like 100 lines of Python or Rust or Go. It's not critical infrastructure in the same way that OpenSSL or LLVM or WebKit are.

logicalmonster 15 minutes ago | undown | parent | context | next [–] | on: Ask HN: Would a tech recession vindicate calls for... > Unions are the reason we have a 40-hour workweek I'm open to a discussion on this, but I'd make an argument that the biggest direct factor that caused improvements like 40 weekly hours of work being possible isn't unionization, but the overall process of industrialization. Many people always seem to forget that employers also have to compete for labor. Once a society becomes wealthy enough through industrialization, the setting for better working conditions emerges and becomes possible; whether it's union agitation or simply market competition for workers that pushes them there. The root condition that has to be in place is industrialization. To illustrate this, I'd offer a thought experiment. Imagine a dirt poor country with no machinery that multiplies their labor. People there currently need to work at least 80 hours a week just to feed their families low-quality gruel and give them rags to wear. How does this hypothetical country ever get to 40 hours of work a week without starving? It doesn't matter how well-intentioned and powerful their unions are, their only path to living at 40 hours per week is going through the lovely process of industrializing and becoming efficient enough first. > minimum wage I would strongly argue that an enforced minimum wage isn't the act of love it sounds like, but an act of supreme hatred. It completely locks the most disadvantaged out of the labor market. I know some borderline mentally/physically limited people who hate feeling useless and would love to have some kind of routine and feel like they can contribute to society in a small way and benefit themselves a bit with some kind of job, but due to their working speed and special challenges, there's no way they can be employable at a normal minimum wage for any task. The minimum wage doesn't help them: it just makes the least advantaged among us as depressed wards of the state who rot away their lives because they're completely locked out of a normal life in the world.
