As a datapoint for how I've seen this used in the real world, I've spoken to startups who will defer to Pave regarding how much they'll offer to pay. The startup I spoke to said 'We pay you the 85th percentile for your Y

From my time working on data infrastructure at Facebook, deletion policies are respected (permanently delete user data within X days). This was in 2018, though, so things may have changed.

"Nope" doesn't really contribute to the discussion. Why does diversity not equal freedom?

I saw this on Twitter the other day and saw all of the comments were about people use this video to reduce how much people bother them. The squares in the video reorganize about halfway through, but the overlay self-view video that's b

Do you have an opinion on the future of consumer computing? Do you think we'll be using laptops in 2064? Genuinely curious.

The real question is: What is happening right now? The $3500 dollar AVP has just created an entirely new interface for people to interact with computers. There are developers that are working as I type this to get first mover advantage on

I'm hoping to go full Homelander this time. No more LASIK for me. That's why I returned the AVP. What I'm doing is fine now, but the AVP triggered something in my eyes that I don't want to address just yet.

No, my code is shit. And in a product everyone's forgotten. Apple Vision Pro has better hand tracking and eye tracking IMO. Quest has better shared experiences and experience diversity. SLAM feels the same between Quest 3 and AVP. AVP

I mentioned that I returned my Apple Vision Pro. I have had LASIK and am very sensitive in my eyes. I probably need another LASIK surgery or go onto glasses again. I did scan through almost every return post I could find on reddit to find

"Better product" is mostly subjective, to a degree. I think future iterations of the AVP are going to bring more value per dollar to the public than Meta's Quest or Rayban lines. The hardware, as I see it, is mostly going to

I felt I was watching an actual analysis at first. I thought Zuck was going to give Apple credit for some of the amazing work they've done. When he mentioned that "feature X" was better on the Quest that IMO wasn't bette

I worked for Meta on Quest 2. I also bought the Apple Vision Pro (I returned it today, actually). I think Quest is better tech right now, but I think the Apple Vision Pro is the better product. I'm excited to see the competition here,

You're right, it's a value add for Apple. If there were no non-Apple apps, I would not buy an iPhone.

I would be surprised if the price dropped. I believe Apple is known for keeping their pricing fairly neutral or increasing it. You could get a Gen 1 second hand, though.

I like Memrise. I did the full German course with them. It's similar to Duolingo. I also suggest using something like News In Slow German to understand actual content generated (and read) by real people.

It's deceptively ineffective. Sure, it can teach you things, but it has not been a good use of time for me personally (I'm not OP btw).

CQ and Laine are directors. ZDB and Async have existed for a while, nothing really new here. I guess they need to claim something on PSC.

ZippyDB and Async have existed for years. This is nothing really new.

I am a Netflix employee currently at the HQ. No one is talking about layoffs. Was your friend fired?

This is false, as far as I can tell. I am currently in a Netflix office.

I don’t know of any mass layoffs at Netflix today.

DoorDash sent out an email yesterday informing customers of the changes. They only mentioned that tipping was moving to after the checkout step, but nothing else. I simultaneously decided to stop ordering DoorDash yesterday; I've been

This is the head of AR software that's stepping down, as well, which doesn't even do SLAM or DFS afaik. They just chucked the custom silicon team out in September. I wonder if we'll ever see their mostly functional AR headset

I don't know. Most people on HN are in some dimension, at least, qualified for FAANG or better. I have 6 yoe with quite a bit of impact and I've crossed many domains. I've received quite a few offers over the past year but I&
