Pretty much. There’s no big secret. Just a bunch of uncomfortable hard work to not ship junk and get everyone on the same page. It helps that title for product managers is “Vice President.”

Don’t take the downvotes personally. The censors are part of our societal problem.

Historically speaking perceived government overreach is followed by backlash of some sort. In life, we’re all playing the long game. I question the wisdom of some of the health orders in the long run.

This submission seems to have been censored; it has fallen off the front page of HN. I signed up for Parler. It seems refreshingly welcoming to me. That might be problematic for those currently censoring existing spaces.

Millions of preventable deaths? Do you have a source handy? I’m wondering how that aligns with the latest data.

Wow, how can we be more like Italy?

This post seems controversial to the community based on voting. I’m wondering how it does not contribute to the discussion. It seems like an obvious statement? Am I wrong in thinking that no behavioral technique is going to be ubiquitously

I worked at Apple. I don’t remember but I’m pretty sure perf just sucked, and I’m guessing there weren’t enough people to deal with it. Like, you are giving way too much credit to strategic thinking. It wasn’t like that. Nobody had a crysta

Can imagine a lot of folks simply don’t want to see these here, which is understandable, but I’m personally curious what the HN crowd thinks. Maybe once in a while is okay.

A reasonable crane operator would hopefully call for help and not push it to the limit. Personally, I’m not convinced cops need to go for a 100% apprehension rate all the time no matter what with 100% control of every situation. Mostly beca

It’s darkly funny seeing TSA agents pulling out water bottles, which may be filled with highly volatile liquid explosives, and chucking them five or six feet on a parabolic trajectory to a trash can surrounded by people.

It’s basically a pull request. There are going to be mistakes and changes. You can pull it and run it yourself if you’d like, but don’t say it’s shipped until it lands on master.

What’s the link between “everyone has a way to pay” and “hospitals won’t overbill”?

Perhaps high bandwidth costs deter undesirable customers or usecases? A slight restatement of your idea. Just speculation.

Has a snap back happened anywhere else in the world? While the unknown is scary, in this case it seems like we can look to our neighbors at home and abroad for comfort.

What’s the timescale? What “teeth” do the laws need? How do you manage the phenomenon of psychological reactance? Asking because while the theory may be sound, translation isn’t a given. And pursuing a policy without regard to feasibility m

They can. Public officials spreading damaging falsehoods may violate the fourth, fifth, and sixth amendments. I believe that is the issue being discussed.

I believe the issue today is that the police are causing violence against the people with little power in our political system. To those people the distinction you are making is without a difference.

Nah people who get hurt don’t benefit. One side is organized like a military with command stations and ranks like captain and lieutenant, while the other is just people marching because they feel like it.

That appears to be the opinion of our impartial health officials, yes.

Unarmed police in other countries seem to handle those situations just fine.

It’s editorial conduct. EO looks fantastic. I don’t support Donald Trump, but I support this action.

The “paid leave” money comes from paying you less when you’re not on leave. Little industry secret I guess.

Are those numbers directly comparable? The US figure is “in the past month” for “under five years old” and the European figure is “in the past year” and “under 16 years old.” Having lived in several countries including the US, the UK, and S

Maybe we overreacted just a little bit. Some of these people might’ve just needed a friend.

I immediately know two things about you: 1. You don’t live alone. 2. You have a job. I think we’re all a little short on empathy these days.

The model is way more granular than that. Have you read it?

I will personally pay for a professional review of the next model the British government uses to guide lockdowns. Cost problem solved.

I used to like the stuff I’m reading and now I don’t. The stuff everybody is reading has gotten very extra. So discoverability is a problem.
