No one has a right to be wealthy. Mark Zuckerberg and all of these other people are so narcissistic that not only do they believe they are entitled to their wealth, but they also have an insane urge to take even more from people while providing even less. The quality of information and interaction on Meta’s web sites is lower than ever, and their response is to machine-produce an increasing quantity of even lower quality sludge rather than shut down the company and disappear.

What we need is a mechanism to terminate these entities, in the same way that chemotherapy eliminates fast-dividing cancer cells that have lost their ability to self-terminate.

Reading the tweets from “Team you tube” — these companies should be prohibited from saying things that are obviously not true. “These decisions are made very carefully” or “our community guidelines exist to make You tube a safer community for everyone” are flat lies, naked falsehoods that should bring about meaningful sanctions against Google’s management and shareholders. Rich people should suffer for this.

I’d like to be contrarian here and suggest that if you happen to be possessed of a sudden impulse to buy something, but you can’t identify any particular thing that you need, consider putting that amount of money into an investment or retirement account instead of searching for a trinket to buy. That way you are scratching the itch and you’ll be better off later on.

In other words, you can have your cake and eat it too.

What does it matter if they spend the money on drugs? Their lives suck. I can hardly blame them for wanting drugs and if it makes them more comfortable for a short period of time, that is probably the best I can do for them. I’m powerless to change their situation. Even if I had the resources to house and employ such a person, I have no way to cure their mental and emotional issues that prevent them from being a stable person.

Did he ever end up saying what his true motivation was for disparaging Linux?

I think that is well known amongst storage experts, though maybe not everyone who might be interested in using ZFS for storage in a professional or personal application. What I’m curious about is how ZFS’s full-disk performance (what is the best term for this?) compares to btrfs, WAFL, and so on. Is ZFS abnormally sensitive to this condition, or is it a normal property?

In any case it doesn’t stick out to me as a problem that needs to be fixed. You can’t fill a propane tank to 100% either.

Pre-holed jeans for instance are basically a way to make the garment more interesting and show some skin. Clothing is as much for self-decoration to attract mates as it is for protection from the environment. All it says to me is that we are apes.

What surprises me is that I don’t see any comments here from people lamenting that their business will be negatively affected by this. Surely there are founders or engineers on HN involved with companies that will lose profit if they allow their customers to cancel their services.

You will probably find that your corporate TLS MitM proxy excludes financial institutions so that employees can do their banking without any doubt that their own company would respect the confidentiality of their finances. If not, your cybersecurity team needs some help.

Shush, I want to see a YC25 auto insurance startup that uses a pile of overheated video cards as a crystal ball to make underwriting decisions.

> He refused to believe me and basically said "Well I'm not sure why I'm paying you if you can't even get a website to work."

I would quit the moment I was spoken to in that way, if not sooner.

How many of the software engineers, project managers, and sparkle-shoe consultants from Deloitte are on Medicaid?

> It was on the table.

I think this is a misconception. It is the responsibility of the general staff to have a plan for any eventuality. The existence of such a plan does not imply that the political leadership has seriously considered launching military operations against a friendly neighboring country.

I imagine very few of the MS devs are using BeOS.

Easy, count running the report as an event.
