You can, but as usual the opportunities are limited as military don’t need that much full stack engineers.

On the other hand senior embedded/mechanical/electronics/AI engineers are of the very high demand.

How would you end the suffering? That is such a naive take, when there is no such option on the table.

If Ukraine lose - russians will not only he able to bomb civilians from the distance, but will literally be able to go to their homes.

The suffering will multiply but you will most likely not hear about it, so you will be in peace with yourself.

> The same can be actually said about Zelensky, for whom any concessions to Russia mean political death too. If Ukraine loses territories forever, people will ask, why so many had to die for that.

That is actually not true at all. People in Ukraine know that it is not about territory but about sovereignty.

The problem of giving up territory is that you will run out of it. The goal of Ukraine is to survive as an independent state, not to hold the ground.

Only if you know nothing about it - then it is all the same.

> and just make what he loves to make

That is what he loves to make, there is nothing more to it.

Well said, I have exactly the same thoughts.

However, overcoming these forces is something people did successfully in the past. I think right now we are just in a cycle of mass confusion caused by the technological revolutions, which prevents us to see clearly (as it happened in the past as well).

Without alignment we just drift by natural forces of a system in place in whatever direction. When we adapt and if the world survives, this should not be an issue.

The problem of billionaires is that they are one level below from the top in abstraction of a society. They are required to play by the rules of the state designed by someone else, and they lack the knowledge and experience to go one level higher and think about the policies and rules for society itself - and this is much harder than doing business, and requires completely different skills.

Because of these factors, we see them being able to hoard wealth but unable to influence the system in any positive way, except for the ones which the system was already designed for (create jobs, innovate, etc.)

> may terminate those economies in the same way a full stop terminates

Absolutely not. It would be unpleasant to a lot of people, but it would also be very far from a disaster (measured in a single low digit of GDP). In 5 years everything will return to normal.

Sanctions in the modern world don’t work. US is not the only wealthy country on the planet.

Was I the only one thinking that the author of Careless People was careless herself?

I felt that she is much closer in values to the Facebook executives than she was trying to make it seem. Yes, she failed at her job because it was an impossible one, and she got no shares because she was too late to the party, but the bravery and carelessness she showed were absolutely mind-blowing, for my taste at least.

On other phones it is visible, here we’ll see soon.

Yes, I wonder why this is not the most obvious reason.

There are infinite ways to give away money, this scheme allows to align better with what causes other people are ready to support with their own money.

Computer files are very unintuitive concept for humans. That’s why iOS / ipadOS were trying so hard to get rid of files completely. Because any research shows that whatever your solution is - users don’t get it.

Professionals came up with their own ways navigating through that complexity.

Most people prefer the first solution there were introduced to. So people preferring Windows Explorer were using it before Finder and vice versa.

People also don’t spend time learning their tools - that’s why you see a lot of complains in this thread for things that are right in the menu, you don’t even need to read help or ask google, just open the damn menu. And this is HN - a forum for “power” users who spend immense time using their computers.

Try reducing thinking and use lighter models. For example I observed that using Sonnet works much better (compared to Opus) for tasks I want to be in control of architecture and just need a faster code input.

What does heavily encrypted even mean? Fully encrypted? Slightly encrypted? Encrypted enough to call it “heavily encrypted” but not enough to be protected from whoever is interested?

Not everything Ukraine uses is public knowledge.

There are huge developments in automation happening and are being used right now.
