If a worker doesn't use their AI/LLM budget, can they get a raise?

probably will get fired for lack of performance.

Let's just say their performance (OKR, KPI, whatever "impact" metric you want) was indistinguishable from a peer that used the AI/LLM monthly allowance in full.

Maybe a $10k raise would be nice?


Theyd get a bad review for leaving performance on the table. When has finishing your work ever resulted in anything other than more work?

It's disturbingly anti-merotocratic. You're not allowed to prove that you're more useful without AI because they just assume that AI is a 10x multiplier on everyone.

no because it does not come from the same budget

Money spent is money spent.

Are YouTube and WhatsApp social media?


You named the two biggest platforms [0], YouTube and WhatsApp are the social media.

This is kinda like asking if Saudi Arabia and Russia are petrostates lol.

They were made into social media, but when they were aquired they were just video hosting and sms replacements with little (no?) social engagement aspect.


Yes, few of the prime examples?


Walking in the cold and/or rain is also quite nice.


The YouTube algorithm seems to be this bad.

I listened to a song a few weeks ago... now that song is in almost every page on YouTube for me. Homepage, sidebar, search results. It's just everywhere.

I've already listened to it. I don't want to listen to it again every single day for the rest of time.


Even worse, listening in YouTube Music pollutes my regular YouTube feed. Why have two apps when they're the same thing?


This is why I unsubscribed from YouTube Music after having been a Google Play Music user for years. YTM polluting YT just ruined both for me.

Now I use a different music streaming platform and have history turned off on YouTube.


Apologies. That's probably because of people like me. I listen to the same 5-6 songs and click through on the home page.


"If" is doing an enormous amount of work here.


> The best design is original, groundbreaking and often counterintuitive.

If you want to talk in absolutes, I'd say the best design is the one that results in the desired behaviour of your audience.


I unwatched the repo yesterday, but that has had no effect. Also changed my notifications email, also no effect.

I have the emails going straight to trash.

35k emails so far, deleted about 10k yesterday.

My inbox is functional so it’s not a big deal, but it’s surprising this activity is not caught by a spam filter or something.

~45k emails (so far) to one email? Totally normal human activity according to GitHub.


I think changing his name to Richard Lambo may not have avoided this outcome.


There are a few scans on Instagram, I'd charitably describe them as "dogshit".


Ah, so bad. I got excited for a second.


Please do break down the differences.


I could not hold myself back, so I already elaborated on OpenBSD and DragonflyBSD here (albeit it is non-exhaustive): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45714491 :D

I left out FreeBSD from that comment, which has its own set of innovations: Capsicum (capability-based security framework), Jails (OS-level virtualization/containerization which predates Docker by over a decade), MAC Framework (Mandatory Access Control for fine-grained security policies), GEOM (modular disk I/O framework), Linuxulator (Linux binary compatibility layer), ZFS (FreeBSD has arguably the best ZFS implementation outside of Solaris), bhyve (type-2 hypervisor), and so forth.

Userland tools include iocage/bastille (jail managers), poudriere (package building), jemalloc (default allocator which focuses on fragmentation avoidance and scalability) among many others.

Each BSD really does have its own character. FreeBSD leans toward performance and production use, OpenBSD toward security and correctness, NetBSD toward portability and clean design, DragonflyBSD toward alternative SMP approaches!

(illumos/OpenIndiana is quite interesting, too (see DTrace, Doors IPC, Zones, SMF, Contracts, Event Ports, RBAC)).


FreeBSD uses OpenZFS (which was previously called ZoL (ZFSOnLinux), afaik) -- so it's the same implementation as e.g ubuntu.


OpenZFS was not previously called ZoL. It was one implementation that later merged into the OpenZFS project.

And sure, technically both FreeBSD and Ubuntu use OpenZFS codebase now, but FreeBSD has in-tree, native kernel integration, whereas Linux has DKMS modules that are separate from mainline kernel, AND FreeBSD had ZFS since 2007 (18 years) and is considered more mature, whereas Linux's stable ZFS is much newer.

Additionally, some features work better on FreeBSD, Boot-on-ZFS is more polished on FreeBSD, and there are performance differences, too.

So my original claim is fine, though illumos is probably the actual best which is technically not Solaris anymore (even though it comes from OpenSolaris)... but as with always, you need history. Follow the timeline. :P
