try not posting on or reading hacker news. it feels good. just read the hn thread and let others make the sacrifice for you. yes, yes if everyone does this then there won't be any more content for the hn thread, but that's a risk im willing to take

what does this person think "canceling" entails. does he think there are magic words that make people hate you? like i want to understand what kind of world he lives in where a blog post that says "IF YOU CANCEL ME I WILL CANCEL YOU BACK" means something. like, he gets caught dropping n-bombs or something and people say "dude stop being so racist" and he responds with "Nuh uh, you're canceled" and instead of people going "wtf are you talking about, you racist shitbird?" they slowly shrink into a corncob? i just don't get it

apple used to do phones and computers well. their phones are still the shiniest turd, idk about their computers any more because I don't know what's going on with the apple silicon really. before that, though, they weren't very good but were kind of bouncing back

mystes posted:Even if you aren't going to freeze to death or whatever, why would you really want to micromanage your power usage on that level to hopefully save a few bucks? there exist people who enjoy churning credit cards and black friday doorbusters and all that. i do not understand their brains in any meaningful capacity, but they're out there. the charitable part of me wants to say "deals like that are a way for people without money to get stuff they couldn't usually afford". but i don't actually think that's it - the actual roi on doing that poo poo is almost always so low that it can't actually be for what you get out of it. it has to be for the raw feeling of getting a good deal or feeling like you pulled one over on walmart or whatever. people like that can spend 6 hours to make $30 over the course of a month and feel like they somehow came out ahead

utilitarianism suffers all the same problems as talk of "close possible worlds" as used in contemporary metaphysics, epistemology, etc. in that you're not discovering things when you articulate these half-formed scenarios, you're stipulating them with no way to tell whether or not the scenario you've (partially) described is even coherent. it's the philosophy version of "imagine we had faster than light travel but everything else was the same."

not category theory (at least what i'm familiar with)- that doesn't make predictions about the empirical world or rely on stories about it. the problem is "i tell a story about the world like THIS so the base concepts must be put together like THAT". proving some theorems, even if they're of the form "postulate p implies q" isn't the same as "here's a story about hedons, therefore buy bitcoin". but i'm not a mathematician i don't know enough about economics or string theory to comment much other than to say that the criticism sounds right for the former but for the latter i thought string theory poo poo was just a bunch of speculative mathematics with no testable conclusions. that's not really science but it's also not the problem i'm talking about. but i might just be misunderstanding the criticism

Penisface posted:its just that i haven't heard of any employer being ok with this google is explicitly ok with and encourages people to count their commute as work hours if they're doing work. it's pretty unlikely that somebody is actually doing work while driving, but if you're on the bus, train, or whatever it's expected that it counts as part of your work day. one of the reasons that i was so keen to go zero-commute was that i get motion sick if i try to use a computer on the bus or bay area trains (the VTA basically follows car routes), so i couldn't reasonably take advantage of the "work on the train/bus" thing
