The article is about incompetence. Incompetence while doing a fraud gets you sent to prison.

I did Thinkpad tech support at IBM right around the time these were discontinued. Great machine, rarely had any problems aside from getting drivers and IRQs configured when folks decided to install Win95

Stamen! One of the OGs at this point.

This is probably the least controversial thing Mike has ever written, so naturally the HN consensus appears to be universal scorn. (And for the record, I don’t even like dogs, but I’m also aware that’s a me problem.)

So the answer to “how are we going to verify that vibe-coded application code does what we think it does is “we’re going to vibe-code the tests too”?

Word on the street was that my Physics professor at NCSSM (Dr Britton) worked on this problem during his doctorate

CMD-F “capitalism”: zero matches

LOL

Another common conflation is graphic design vs application design. Fusion 360 has strong graphic design and meh application design.

All the videos I’ve encountered from this channel have a disconcerting combination of incredible production value, and highly questionable attention to detail with respect to the information that’s being disseminated

This is presumably sarcastic, but be aware you’re posting on HN where such opinions are held unironically.

C’mon. Everyone wants unobtainium.

I still have the muscle memory for these controls. I was completely gobsmacked when I disassembled it and saw the concentric rings of gears. Very very cool.

Author attempts to use this paper to dunk on Marx’ labor theory of value, but Marx discusses this extensively in Capital: price and value are often interchangeable, but not always.

“Maybe you didn’t hear me, I said ‘good morning steam driver, how are you?’”

That was the only thing that conclusively gave it away!

I read the whole thing, top to bottom, and by the 80% mark, I still wasn’t sure whether the piece was written in earnest or the sharpest piece of satire I’ve seen in a decade.

If our industry fills with unions, suddenly I won't be able to job hop to positions that look interesting to me.

Huh? Says who?

My initial point exactly

I could have sworn that was where this was going in the first place

Since it’s an issue of equalizing the perceptual area in the negative space, there’s not really any reason to throw ML at it. Throw actual math at it.

This has my gears turning wondering what other ultrasonic “lubrication” applications might be possible. Potentially a whole world of industrial and mechanical improvements.

UDP? Websocket?

Read this book last year and, like all of Graeber’s writing, enjoyed it very much despite it going in completely different directions than what I anticipated.

Your comments here and on other threads indicate that you have confused “socialism” with “state capitalism”. An unfortunate and increasingly common mistake.

“… the market was collapsed to socialism …”

Whaaaat?!

It’s honestly a huge tell that it was omitted

Do I even want to know why Ginsberg is being posted to HN?

This thread has a lot of interesting anecdata so I’ll add mine.

Over 25 years experience in frontend web, searching since July, and the water is as ice cold as I’ve ever felt it. Low response rates, low interview rates, zero offers. Wondering if the backend grass is slightly greener at the moment or that’s just my perception from the other side of the fence.
