jsiaajdsdaa··on Google engineer put on leave after saying AI chatbot has become sentient
It could be a lie, but is fun to analyze as if it were not a lie. Even if it turns out that it was all a lie, a similar, real, open source example will probably eventually be able to produce something exactly like this.

So it is fun to analyze this example as if it were the first real example, whether or not it is.

Shame that the market is slow to punish and inertia continues to reward.

To their credit, with many billions on the line, products do have a bit of a tendency to be a failure if all they can do is tread water.

Well no to be honest Spring Boot/Java really does make managing threads and web requests easier than doing it manually.

Similarly using an operating system/assembly is much easier than trying to control pulses of electricity yourself!

jsiaajdsdaa··on Stop Interviewing with Leet Code
>an exercise left to the reader

So it turns out that startups also want a culture of meaningless and arbitrary brainteasers instead of building cool shit that works?

Here is a tweet of him saying he doesn't want unpaid internships to exist.

So when the Danish government said they were "safeguarding the welfare of employees" in the link above, was this class of human excluded in your eyes? Do they not deserve to be paid for their time?

As you are probably aware, there is a push to make unpaid internships illegal in the USA. Bernie Sanders wants to make the USA "more like Denmark", but in this regard the two countries are already the same, no?

jsiaajdsdaa··on Fine dining faces its dark truths in Copenhagen
I find it absolutely riveting that you think unpaid labor, which is what we are talking about from the article, is legal or encouraged in Denmark, let alone the United States.

A very fair summary of your country :) At least you have a process which you can influence for change. Other countries, like my own, seem to be becoming a free for all everyday!

I will be open and honest in saying that I make a higher salary here in the USA, I enjoy owning firearms, and I have the unique luxury of having an acre of land of trees and grass but still am only 10 minutes from a whole foods. It's a very unique type of life and I feel very grateful. These things are important to me, and maybe some of that is possible in Denmark too.

However, Denmark was a very fun country to party in before I was married and so on :)

how about from the official danish government website, if you don't trust my personal experience of living in denmark and moving back to the USA.

And in a country where these things are supposed to be guaranteed at a higher level by their government, compared to other countries.

Peculiar how despite all the promises, marketing, media, and government revenue, these things still happen.

jsiaajdsdaa··on Tell HN: I'm Afraid We're Shutting Down
Congrats to you Richard for what you achieved, and I wish you the best in finding a role that will help you stabilize and continue.

There are very strange earthquakes and disconnects happening in the labor market right now and I appreciate seeing this honest perspective on the reality you were trying to change.

jsiaajdsdaa··on You don’t need to be “enterprise-ready” or “scalable”
Why would a team decide to use nosql to manage "a few hundred" entities?

Nosql databases excel at simple lookups and gets by ID, rather than trying to sort and join pretty much ad hoc.

jsiaajdsdaa··on You don’t need to be “enterprise-ready” or “scalable”
You actually do need to be scalable if you intend to serve more than a few thousand concurrent customers.

Stop the government from giving these cronies power, money, and a right to exist.

jsiaajdsdaa··on Loot boxes in video games
Curious how you think that climate change will kill more people than violent crime.

Perhaps you should talk to the largest corporations who are busy polluting the waters and skies? The government knows how to shut them down, where to find them, but instead they are buying stock in those companies.

What a curious coincidence that Valve is a private company.

jsiaajdsdaa··on Loot boxes in video games
You seem to be confused about how governments establish budget priorities.
jsiaajdsdaa··on Loot boxes in video games
Focus on knife crime, robberies, and poverty please. We can prevent kids from possible gambling after that.

If I was an employer, I would only hire people with demonstrated skills in the thing I was hiring them for. No piece of paper would ever convince me otherwise.

Mathematically, that's a pretty strong argument, since Bitcoin might be worth something like. $0.000001 USD which is still not nothing.

jsiaajdsdaa··on New York rolling out noise law, listening tech for souped-up speedsters
>women, children, or whomever

and who are the vast majority of assault and rape victims?

jsiaajdsdaa··on New York rolling out noise law, listening tech for souped-up speedsters
While road noise is very annoying and serious, I will be displeased if this only targets certain types of noise and not others.

Additionally, at a time when the streets are seriously unsafe, this should not be a priority.

It is reasons like this that I am infinitely glad I left NYC for the woods of the West Coast.

EDIT: I would just like to add, if you feel that the streets of NYC are a safe place at night for women, children, or whomever, then I really feel like your opinion is very dismissive of people who have been seriously injured or killed.

jsiaajdsdaa··on Ask HN: How are you preparing for the recession?
Recession? Let's see who is right within 1 year.

I will bet you something that should hold its value. Looking around my house, I have a few bags of rice and pasta that I could put on the line. If you're right, that will probably be worth something!
