Okay. Thanks for keeping us informed of your plans.

The real question is did we start too late to curb climate change? We'll innovate to mitigate its damages either way.

Do you have any studies to support your recommendations?

I heard that ticketmaster has exclusive agreements with basically every large venue. So if performers want to play venues of over a medium size (large theaters, arenas), they're forced to use ticketmaster.

The best advice I've seen is from the Patreon CEO, Jack Conte. (spoiler: It's don't listen to generic advice.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTpBFiW5PBo

Maybe it has to do with extraterrestrial viewership being down. (If we're just making stuff up.)

Or a sweet predator targeting system.

This is what we do for the most part. Two tiers of 'tags'. One is curated and required, the other is an embedding.

If you can identify red tape without a benefit and useful red tape, let me know. We'll be rich.

Shockingly, this contains your salary information. Which is pretty dangerous for salary negotiation.

Except for that whole voting thing. The "government", in a functioning democracy, is us.

It actually is in the article in a quote.

Fortunately, we don't have to rely on opinions for things. We have science!

To comment on getting out of a bad place in a trip... We've found that just talking about the feeling is extremely helpful in moving on. Instead of stewing and digging deeper, somehow that seems to bring us out.

Or HN traffic is down. Or people don't hire into the holiday season, or tech is down. There are countless things that could drive that number. We can't tell from a few monthly counts.

The decline of newspapers, and journalism in general, is 100% due to the now common practice of writing a story that says "<another outlet> reported ...". Why would anyone spend the time money to do actual journalistic research when it's so much cheaper to steal someone else's work. When stories became a commodity, it became a race to the bottom.

Aren't those for everyone? Not just people not in Florida?

Copyright laws protect small creators too. I'm not sure how they could expect to make a living if their work could just be copied and sold or given away by anyone.

Wanting your purchase to persist is totally reasonable. Not buying a digital copy where it can disappear is the solution.

Sure. I guess in this very narrow situation where the content is no longer available, I don't have an issue. But the person I responded to seemed to be suggesting stealing content as some sort of broad solution to an undescribed issue.

This is often suggested on HN anytime there's some minor issue with streaming. Piracy isn't a solution to anything. Yes, there are issues with intellectual property, but most of the issues aren't with movies/TV/art. Without people paying for these things, studios won't invest vast sums of money in them and we wouldn't have the vast amount of high quality content we have today.

Fortunately we still vote for our representatives. But I'm sure the US Federal government is interested in your veiled calls for violence.

It's relevant to what I initially said. So I'm not sure how your comment relates. Maybe you just wanted to nitpick a word I used to sound smart?

"...lithium-ion batteries are 70-80% efficient, and hydrogen is only 25-30% efficient."

I'm not an expert at all, but I was under the impression that hydrogen requires electricity for it to be synthesized. And that it's quite a bit more efficient just to use electricity in a battery directly instead of going through the process to create hydrogen, store it, and use it.

I do think it could be used in situations where the energy density benefits are important (planes, racing).

Job boards can be pretty terrible. I try to find companies doing something interesting and apply directly through their site. You can also find yourself among less competition if their jobs aren't being picked up by big boards.

Right? What a groundbreaking idea! /s

I'm not particularly knowledgeable, but my impression is that hydrogen might work for specific applications, but we don't have a very efficient of generating it. It still takes substantially more energy than if we just store the energy in batteries.

You can cherry-pick examples of bad communication and bad policies all you want. But the fact remains that women and minorities are at a significant disadvantage when it comes to just about all aspects of life. The 'woke' problem pales in comparison to the actual problem. Complaining about things going too far isn't a good look when there are real, systemic issues remaining.

I was in on AMD at $9. The hype was so real between Nvidia and AMD that I got cold feet and sold (for a decent profit). Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought it would be here. I'd be retired.
