41,808,701 | comment | dTal | 2024-10-11T11:57:16 | null | "Evolve" here is a neat word for "countless trillions of creatures die preventable deaths or otherwise fail to reproduce over geological time". If your terminal goal is to "finally stop caring about micro plastics" rather than "protect Earth's existing ecosystem", why wait? Just nuke the planet to glass. Microplastic worry over.<p>(A similarly nihilist viewpoint comes from the people who pontificate that "the planet will be fine, it's humans who will suffer". Sure, if by "the planet" you mean "a lump of mass orbiting the sun". Low bar for your ethical framework.) | null | null | 41,808,452 | 41,806,629 | null | [

No EU official has ever described this to be the goal. I’ve only heard about it in far right media.

You can reference any check you make with, assuming you answer honestly.<p>I think it's fair to challenge the "tax dodger" brush if a lot of people are suddenly made "tax dodgers" unfairly. But you've got to read the room. Personal Service Companies were a scandal that were legislated against. If you want to carry on doing certain kinds of work and not _think_ about tax, just pay tax as a Sole Trader, forget about the rest of the rules.<p>If you want to try to hang on to tax advantages (that have been all-but-eroded), feel free but if you want to earn big money and optimise your tax accordingly, yes, you do have to keep up with rule changes, or maybe pay the price later. But I'd say IR35 isn't relevant to the average worker any more. | null | null | 41,808,616 | 41,764,903 | null | null | null | null |

It is 2024, it is okay to be open about one's gender identity. To insist on using a pseudonym is to lie in spite of the safe spaces the internet has created for such discussion.<p>It is difficult to trust a liar, and installing an operating system is an action that requires a high level of trust. A liar's motivations can change on a whim. Before you know it, your system has a backdoor, simply because some powerful entity dangled a carrot in front of the liar. A liar believes their victims are all stupid, that they can get away with arbitrarily altering the truth.<p>Furthermore, this causes damage to a significant number of people who suffer gender or identity issues, who are compelled to believe it is better to lie. This creates a vicious cycle in such communities that goes against years of tearing down barriers and stigma.<p>Green name because this is an unpopular opinion. | null | null | 41,803,792 | 41,799,068 | null | null | null | null |

The machine has a useful life of 25,000 widgets.<p>In addition to the cost of the machine, each widget needs $0.20 of raw materials and operator time. So $5k over the life of the machine - if I choose to run the machine.<p>But it turns out the widget-making machine was a bad investment. The market price of widgets is now only $2.<p>If I throw the machine in the trash on day 1 without having produced a single widget, I've spent $50k and earned $0 so I've lost $50k.<p>If I buy $5k of raw materials and produce 25k widgets which sell for $50k, I've spent $55k and earned $50k so I've lost $5k. It's still a loss, sure, but a much smaller one. | null | null | 41,808,281 | 41,805,446 | null | [

Do you enjoy being a traitor, incidentally?).<p>But I think that the big learning from trying to roll Workplace out to other companies is that it was the FB culture that made it work.<p>It's also worth noting that even though internal-FB stuff in core FB was absolutely bonkers, it definitely contributed to community formation, as you'd end up seeing that your XFN peeps hobbies/kids etc, so there was a loss there.<p>Although speaking as someone in EMEA, it was totally, totally worth it. | null | null | 41,808,576 | 41,805,009 | null | [

41,808,749 | comment | wiredfool | 2024-10-11T12:05:25 | null | I think a PHEV would be ideal for me -- Bimodal use, mostly a few km trips, and then a few 1000km trips/yr. The long trips are the ones where we wind up filling the car, so space inside/towing is important. (We've got a 7 seater, used to be a renault grand scenic, now a ford galaxy).<p>OTOH, one of the last times I rented a car, they 'upgraded' me to a PHEV, and I wasn't impressed. It was a tight fit with the kids + luggage, and we didn't even have the dog along. Fuel economy was well worse than plain old diesel, because it turns out when they give you a PHEV with 0km in the battery, it's not much of a hybrid. (This was a Volvo S60). | null | null | 41,803,326 | 41,757,808 | null | [

Being jingoistic doesn't reduce the chance of nuclear war.<p>I doubt we're going to convince each other, so I would challenge readers of the two claims to decide for themselves what makes more sense for preventing nuclear armageddon. | null | null | 41,808,660 | 41,807,681 | null | [

41,808,757 | comment | mikro2nd | 2024-10-11T12:06:56 | null | The trouble with that notion is this: imagining that a plastic-based ecosystem arises (horrifying thought!) it means that there are life-forms capable of deriving energy from plastics, breaking them down. That makes plastics useless to us humans, because any time we try to use plastics for all the things we currently do with them, those life-forms are going to come along and attack, break down the stuff we deem "useful plastics"; the critters will make no distinction between nurdles lost on the beach and the plastics holding your car/house/clothes/aeroplane together. i.e. It's Game Over for plastics use. | null | null | 41,808,452 | 41,806,629 | null | [

41,808,759 | comment | xnorswap | 2024-10-11T12:07:16 | null | Yes, there was a legion of "IT Contractors" that were effectively salaried workers in all but a few main factors:<p><pre><code> 1. Their self labelling as "Contractors"
2. Their employment rights
3. Tax.
</code></pre>
And everyone knew this was the case. You'd have people working 2, 3 or more years at a company and people at the company wouldn't even know they were technically contracting.<p>Of course when there was little or no enforcement, it was rampant.<p>The act of shifting liability to the client was a work of genius to clear out all these disguised employees.<p>Big Companies went from incentivised to dis-incentivised to engage in this practice.<p>You can still contract "inside IR35" too, you just need to pay tax as such. Of course companies would rather engage "outside IR35", but any "barriers" are just clarifications about what a contractor is.<p>"Why can't I act just as an employer/employee would but not pay employers' NI" is not a reasonable position. | null | null | 41,808,348 | 41,764,903 | null | [

Being able to interact with computers in a meaningful way transformed computers from programmable calculators and data processing machines into something entirely different. I would imagine that more people have seen those archaic computers in museums than during their service life simply because there was no need to interact with those computers back in the day. Even a web developer has more direct control over a server in a data centre than most early programmers had over early computers. (At least those used in businesses.

Given the free speech absolutism I personally believe it's a bit of both, it's the canary that also seeded a whole movement of conspiracy theorists grifters. I see that happening in Brazil as well, following on the footsteps of what people like Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, etc. created in the USA.

41,808,795 | comment | al_borland | 2024-10-11T12:12:41 | null | If we are talking about non-technical people simply making documents for the web, I don’t think they ever really need to know what the DOM, dev tools, or state is. They’ll never really run into that, as the sites will be rather trivial, and that’s ok.<p>For someone looking to be a web developer, I can see where some would need a faster ramp up to hold their interest, but they should also still know that it can be this simple. I saw a video not long ago where someone asked a bunch of people who just finished a web dev bootcamp to make a basic HTML file and put it on the web, much like what this tutorial does in the first couple steps. Most of them couldn’t do it. If someone can make a page using React, but can’t make a simple HTML page, I think that’s a problem. It leads to a lot of overly complex solutions, because they were never taught how simple it can really be.<p>Even for technical folks, their area of expertise may fall outside of the web, but they still want a web page to share information. The basics are perfect and often used. Dennis Ritchie’s page was a perfect example of that. A lot of people from this era have similar sites.<p><a href="https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/" rel="nofollow">https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/</a> | null | null | 41,807,193 | 41,801,334 | null | null | null | null |

41,808,799 | comment | cduzz | 2024-10-11T12:13:16 | null | An off-hand reference to "350k/day" shouldn't be naively translated to "4 per second"<p>350k/ day likely means sometimes it's 3.5 million, all smashed into a 30 minute period of time, because some nitwit linked to my site.<p>And then, I get paged about "my site being down" and I have to stop hanging out with my friends or family and fiddle around with things I don't want to fuzz with. Or maybe it just breaks and doesn't self heal and it is offline for a week until I notice it and fix it, and by then people all think the site's gone.<p>Anyhow, sure, maybe people not wanting to devote their lives to devops fanfic is something that can "just be solved with this simple trick cloudflare hates" but maybe not. | null | null | 41,807,572 | 41,797,719 | null | null | null | null |
