Ask HN: When would we reach Silicon Valley equilibrium?
3 by eqb_man | 1 comments on Hacker News. Just a thought experiment, please take it with a grain of salt. If the major Bay Area firms keep outsourcing tech to Southeast Asian countries for cheap labor, how long until those countries keep up and become as good as Bay Area itself in terms of: 1. Income offered 2. Infrastructure 3. Opportunities On another note, why do you think the equilibrium hasn't happened yet?
Ask HN: What are the best open-access journals for non-academics to submit to?

I prefer that there's zero or minimal cost, although I understand the scope of review and editing will be lower. What are the best open access journals out there? Are there any that have particularly bad reputations to avoid? Thanks.
Ask HN: Amazon delisted me – what do I do?
467 by nikkwong | 88 comments on Hacker News. I'm at my wits end with big tech platforms. I run a popular photography product company (which was a Kickstarter project in 2014) [0] which gets a lot of love for its ability to help photographers take interesting images. But I'm continually running into walls with BigTechCos. I'm just coming off the end of having had my Instagram account deleted by Facebook because a graffiti artist and his trolls were able to flag my IG account and left me unable to appeal[1]. 20k followers, 4 years of work gone. My entire customer base is primarily on IG and they are shocked to find that I'm not; so I feel the pain every day and the fact that I'm no longer advertising on FB because of it is a loss-loss in my opinion. Can not explain how upsetting it is for me. To add insult to injury Amazon randomly delisted my product. I randomly received an email that they removed me [2]. I checked the listing and saw that a customer had left a bad review. I went to contact that customer [3] and saw that the seller in that instance wasn't me, it was Adorama, a retailer who sells the product I created. I figured this was the sale that got my account flagged, so I responded trying to explain that I sell an OEM product so I wouldn't sell anything used/broken[4]. They then respond that my response is not sufficient[5]. I then decide to give them what they want, contact my manufacturer, come up with a plan [6]. Pretty long, with evidence, a spreadsheet, and even more detailed notes at the end of the email. Today they've just gotten back to me saying they refuse to reinstate it and that I'm shit out of luck [7]. I am livid at this point. What else did they want? And if they weren't going to reinstate me in the first place, why not just say that? According to my account dashboard my account is in perfect 'health'[8] and there is absolutely no indication that there is anything wrong. I feel like I am being trolled. It feels so perverse because I live in Seattle so I am always rooting for Amazon. Now, after having finally taken the leap and quit my job and started a company that's beginning to do well, the companies that I've always applauded are totally screwing up my business and leaving me stranded with no options. Not even a customer support number. I don't typically get stressed but the helplessness in the hands of these companies has been keeping me up at night. I feel the stress. Does anyone have any ideas of what I could do? I live in Seattle so are there any offices or people I could try reasoning with in person? And also if anyone can tell me what I did wrong. If anyone has any information that could be useful I would seriously appreciate it because this is quite literally my livelihood and my entire life. Thank you for reading. Also sorry for the rant; I am not usually so forthcoming; the entire situation though, is just so dis-empowering. Edit: here is also the product listing in question [9] [0] https://ift.tt/2m4SQy8 [1] https://ift.tt/2K2KTWP [2] https://ift.tt/2UtB1JJ [3] https://ift.tt/2K1RSze [4] https://ift.tt/2UqJRrA [5] https://ift.tt/2K1RTDi [6] https://ift.tt/2Upu1xp [7] https://ift.tt/2K1RVLq [8] https://ift.tt/2UsVpKZ [9] https://ift.tt/2K0h2hQ
Ask HN: Is all programming constantly changing or just front-end JavaScript?
127 by saltcod | 130 comments on Hacker News. I've been working on frontend dev for several years now, in the pre and post framework era. React and the other frameworks and ES6 in general, has meant a ton of change to the very basics of how we work. The way I do basic things has changed fundamentally in the last 4-5 years. Some of that is because I'm no longer a "beginner", but much is because things have just changed a ton. People who know the JS / frontend ecosystem AND backend stuff as well: Is this rate of change unique to JS, or is it everywhere? Is Rails very, very different now than 4-5 years ago? Django? I use PHP a bit and I've seen that change a bit, but it feels like mostly for the better, with namespaces in particular. Otherwise, I don't feel like PHP has had near the amt of change that JS has had. tl;dr: is it crazy everywhere or just with JS/frontend?
