Leans into AI adoption.

> almost only network effect due to

"Only" is a massive amount of lifting in that sentance.

Network effects are among the most durable/effect competitive qualities. And they have that network on both sides.

77% of the U.S. 3rd party food delivery is DoorDash + Instacart.

(Nearly all of the remaining amount is Uber Eats.)

So if not a monopoly, then at least a duopoly.

As a rule, two-sided marketplaces are very difficult to disrupt.

“Overwhelming.” Eich made a modest donation to a ballot initiative, which got majority support by California btw.

But in any case, your point is “it was damaging the company, therefore it makes sense to see them gone.” And there’s your parallel.

In reality, whether corporate agnosticism is right depends almost exclusively on your feelings of the underlying cause.

Brendan Eich was fired from Mozilla for a $1k political donation.

Corporatist hellhole was your reaction to that too I imagine.

* Technically resigned, but there was significant pressure from Mozilla.

Yeah, there are some strange expectations going into this.

"This is what I would like AOT cache to mean."

Not anymore though.

(In fact, even a stiff fine, which is my point.)

The idea of the internet is that you can reach it across the world, globally.

If you did that in Europe you'd get fined 4% of annual turnover.

Wild how much basic practices have changed in 2 decades.

The highly technical sites -- StackOverflow, Unix & Linux, MathOverflow -- see little use.

Others like SciFi & Fantasy and Worldbuilding have kept relevance.

Unfortunately, these more niche sites relied on StackOverflow to drive referral traffic, so the whole platform is declining.

> You can buy a very nice 32" monitor and better input devices for less than that.

As with many things, you pay for the atheistics.

I'm not sure of anything that fits the bill. Are you?

A small town would have less data.

So they’re busy.

They are designed to create responses that pass.

Randomness generators would fail horribly.

> The irony here is perhaps missed by many. He didn’t grade homework in the first place. He paid assistants to grade.

Whether he graded it, or his assistants graded it, I’m not really sure how that matters at all to the point.

Strangely, the article never posted what the request actually was.

There usually is a fee for the amount of information, or for the scope of the search, lest they get spammed for low value drive-bys.

If the request was “anything anywhere anytime related to X” they could be expensive (millions is incredulous, but expensive).

If the request was “last 9 months arrest records by X” that is more scoped.

The article never says.

As in, the email was misrouted?

Or simply it falls into no one’s job?

The latter is deliberate. The former, maybe.

Where do you think the internet came from?

So…you’re point is that only his judgment says it’s useful, and maybe he shouldn’t be using it and instead rely on…his judgement.

I don’t think the parent would disagree.

But the PHP team is the one that got the security disclosure.

Because...that's what the PHP security team does?

No one needs to use their work, or indeed PHP at all.

But that's why the PHP security team exists.

I saw it in earlier Claude models, but I haven't seen it for a least 7-8 months.

Are you victim blaming the reporter?

If you have a bad process, fix the process.

When you say Claude…you mean the CLI?

That’s a harness.

This gets mentioned on HN at least 5 times a day.

“Yeah my dog plays piano, but only one chord at a time.”

I just keep them in 1Password.

Has worked for me every time.

You can export them to Bitwarden and then export those to a file.

I agree that is annoying.

Agreed
