Reminder that Twitter (X) has done similar things (shadow-banning) before.

I think so.

A lot of orgs seem to be implementing their own version of this (we are), but having an out of the box solution is a great starting point.

I love European woodworking equipment. It's so much better than what we can get in the US.

> Some of us are less fortunate and work in companies where every deadline was yesterday. Every task is wildly different and often means jumping into someone else’s project that you are seeing for the first time...In that environment, making all of this a prerequisite for shipping is a pretty good way to end up on a PIP. And then out of a job.

After reading this and having no other context: this sounds like a terribly mismanaged company. One bad month and it sounds like you could go under.

Some times you have to slow down to speed up. If that means working with clients on commitments, then be honest with them. If your sales team is over-committing, tell them to stop it. The situation is precarious as is.

From an SRE's perspective, this is a good thing.

I've been using this method for about a week - great outcomes from it so far: clear, clean language that sounds like something someone would actually write.

Until recently (~20 years) IT was generally libertarian on all fronts.

This implies the immigration came before the technology, which is not what happened.

I get it, but it's certainly a thing that is seen really only directed at the US.

I think you're right. Made worse by those piling on that are US citizens, enjoying the fruits of what this country has produced.

The amount of anti-US sentiment and dismissiveness in these comments are just...laughable.

> I used 2012 as an example because that's when I was in my first year of high school

I don't think this person has the experience required to make a qualifiable judgement on what the internet was.

There is a large block of (Internet) time missing from this analysis.

A sign of a degenerate society.

> Palantir was founded—with initial venture capital investment from the CIA

This was obvious from the start. Not sure why people "are starting to wonder", which I don't believe either.

> ...to develop the powerful abstractions that then allow us to do much more, much more easily. Of course, the implicit wink here is that it takes a lot of work to be lazy

This lines up with YAGNI, but most people believe the opposite, often using YAGNI to justify NOT building the necessary abstractions.

"Luigi-Inspired" is the new dogwhistle?

Philidelphians burn down their own city whenever their NFL team wins or loses a Superbowl, so this shouldn't be surprising.

fair

hot take: this is how legislation should work

open comments, accepting pull requests, use AI tooling to weed out the ragebait and trolling for things that might actually be useful

Yet earnings estimates remain solid.

Great idea - M&A your way out of bad execution

"Act as if someone else smarter than you is going to look at your code" - best advice I've ever gotten

You're right.

But society where the basis has a liberal perspective, individual sovereignty is held in the highest regard, private property is protected, and the nuclear family is the underpinning of it, I'm okay with. Judeo-Christian societies have this, and maybe aside from Sikhs and some Buddhist sects I don't know of any other religion that does this.

Is there an HN version of slash-dotted?

Ukraine seems like the obvious big miss.

Feels like the author is having some sort of existential crisis.

Seems like there are a lot of events missing
