It's the article's title, for sure, but it feels misleading to call a reduction in incentives from a successful program (rooftop solar generating 11% of California's power is amazing) a strike against the goals of that program.
LEDs/CCFLs being subsidized until consumers switched over to them (I know the story is more complex than this) made sense too.
Time the jerkiness well, and how can anyone tell which you are? An opportunistic jerk who otherwise cultivates a 'nice' reputation is going to attract the same kind of gossip as anyone else in a position of authority, no?
HN hews to using the source title, which I think the submitter did here (based on the URL, 'l-a-basic-income-program-to-give-young-adults-1-000-a-month'). See https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html for more.
Rather than another "Back to the office" screed, this appears to be an advertisement for "Dr" (PsyD, not MD) Paula Hall's various clinics for keeping hands out of pants.
This might be a naïve idea and you didn't ask for any advice, but have you considered doing free/reduced cost work for children or the impoverished? I'm sure you'd face a similar range of responses, but that last line - "no good deed" - made me wonder if using your considerable skills for a bit of charity work might help with the burnout.
Side note: I've had to prepay for appliances and night guards in the past when the cost exceeded some threshold - the latter wound up being supremely disappointing considering it was ~$600 and broke within a fortnight, but I didn't bother complaining to the dentist since the staff would just have to argue with the fab.
> Simonin et al. [72] assessed caffeine consumption in 80 patients with HD and it turned out that among people who consumed a caffeine dose greater than 190 mg per day, the risk of earlier HD was higher. [As parent referenced]
> Tanner et al. [79], based on their study results, concluded that only caffeinated soda, but not other caffeinated beverages, was associated with Huntington’s disease risk, nor was a combined caffeine dose associated, but this finding may be spurious, or not related to caffeine.
Kinda hard to look down on someone for flying their own personal spaceship when Elon is one of the few to not have actually done that yet, but some interesting criticisms about their non-union factories. Is Gizmodo usually so pro-Ford?
Of course it's luck based - it's mastermind with a preset number of mnemonic arrangements. I struggle with it too, but the problem with systems thinking is that you don't get to enjoy the magic which drives the fad.
More terrestrial infrastructure - fiber and radios - is an interesting 'Tech New Deal', but I look at just Starlink (and I hope there are more competitors with customers soon!) and see this area is already covered:
Just a suggestion - I tried to look this up in HN search (there is an unrelated YC company, Bonsai, that I thought this was connected to) and didn't get a hit as the title doesn't include the name of the project - so please consider including it next time. I love the direction you're going here!
> “I hire them just like me: smart, poor, and want to be rich,” she quoted former Tyco CEO Dennis Kozlowski as saying.
Some time later... "Ex-Tyco CEO Kozlowski says he stole out of pure greed"
