Hi, I'm Jonathan. I’m currently doing DevOps work for an open source project and operate a small web hosting company. My skill set is focused on the DevOps side, with a bit of general dev experience, primarily with Python. On the side I also host my own infrastructure as a hobby, from the hardware to the nameservers and everything in between.

I'm a strong communicator, having collaborated across disciplines and presented work for both technical and non-technical audiences. Having worked at startups before, I’m comfortable wearing many hats (and enjoy the variety). I'm self-motivated, a strong problem solver, and love to dig into new complex problems and learn new tools.

I've always felt like Google's confusing UI is completely intentional. Making a user feel lost is a great way to make your product seem larger than it really is. If they boiled down their settings and workflows into easy-to-understand screens then your understanding of the entire product could be conceptualized.

Simple example - in the early days of Microsoft Office, every new release would cause office confusion. I learned to say "it's the same product, they just moved things around". My conspiratorial sense was that the confusion was intentional to make users feel lost.

The Axler text was discussed here (631 pts 295 comments):

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38060159

For most people going into science and engineering as opposed to pure mathematics, Poole's "Linear Algebra: A Modern Introduction" is probably more suitable as it's heavy on applications, such as Markov chains, error-correcting codes, spatiel orientation in robotics, GPS calculations, etc.

I pay around $1100 a month for me and my two children through my employer. Yes; I have a $25 copay for many services, but most are simply not covered under that $25 copay. They refused an age-appropriate colonoscopy last year. It's basically fucking useless and expensive.

So; is it worth it anymore? No. Is it necessary? Yes; unfortunately.

Huh, Pilot/ Captain job requirement for commercial plane is highly regulated by authorities like FAA etc but software engineer has no such requirement. Any random business with some basic software requirement can ask an employee or contractor to get something developed quickly and deployed it. They may start calling that person software engineer.

Further even if you have some strict ACM/IEEE definition of Software Engineer®, a person is not going to end up in jail if they don't fulfill those but call themselves software engineer nonetheless.

While I agree with everything you wrote, the "better ways" have a "cap" on how effective they can be. The root causes -- both in-group preference[1] and laziness/delegation to the "smart loudmouth contemporaries/smart-enough predecessors" -- will be things for the foreseeable future among humans. Some might even call them eternal / instinctive. Our whole civilization is based upon delegation/layering, but trust sure is tricky! Even the smartest humans fall prey to Gell-Mann amnesia[2] on topics beyond their expertise. Personally, I think most of what you wrote all connects to the cluster of wicked problems[3] that I think of as "Humanity Complete" (after NP-Complete transformability).

HouseAccount | https://www.houseaccount.com/ | AI Engineer | Full-time or Part-time | Remote only (Eastern Time USA)

Say you have a broken pipe, a door to replace, a TV to mount. How easily can you find a handyman to get it done? At HouseAccount we want to harness the power of AI to improve the home services space.

Currently we integrate with OpenAI Platform to ask follow-up questions so handymen can get a thorough description of the issue and provide a quote right away. I am looking to hire a developer to make this integration even smarter, anything from image recognition to recommender systems.

I am the sole developer and I'm looking to be joined by someone autonomous and with a lot of energy. You will be responsible for tinkering with existing LLM models (how to rewrite the prompt to balance tokens and speed?) and for coming up with your own innovative solutions (can a homeowner take a picture of a broken pipe and get an instant quote and availability?).

We are a startup, which means you will work autonomously and you will own the pipeline without any "corporation bureaucracy". Your task is to build something innovative where the outcome speaks for itself.

If this sounds like you, submit your application to https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/houseaccount/jobs/495978200... Written communication skills are paramount so a cover letter is expected. Include "HackerNews" to get screening priority.

Thanks.

> I'm very surprised to see all of the negativity toward Cloudflare's usability and value here.

As someone who uses Cloudflare at a professional level, I don't. To me each and every single service provided by Cloudflare feels somewhere between not ready for production or lacking any semblance of a product manager. Everything feels unreliable and brittle. Even the portal. I understand they are rushing to release a bunch of offerings, but this rush does surface in their offerings.

One of my pet peeves is Cloudflare's Cache API in Cloudflare Workers, and how Cloudflare's sanctioned approach to cache POST requests is to play tricks with the request, such as manipulate HTTP verb, URL, and headers, until it somehow works. It's ass-backwards. They own the caching infrastructure, they own the js runtime, they designed and are responsible for the DX, but all they choose to offer is a kludge.

Also, Cloudflare Workers are somehow deemed as customizable request pipelines, but other Cloudflare products such as Cloudflare Images service can't be used with Workers as it fails to support forwarding standard request headers.

I could go on and on, but ranting won't improve anything.

> When it came time to actually pay for said offices… oops

I was at WeWork around the time of its downfall. I have a lot of opinions about how that place was ran, but I can assure you pre-pandemic they were buying up every office space because they were filling them with tenants. Not paying for offices was a result of tenants not paying due to the pandemic.

Which one is that about specifically? Maybe the author could fix it.

Compared the results (https://ucs-detect.readthedocs.io/results.html#general-tabul...) with what I use day-to-day (Alacritty) and seems the results were created with the same version I have locally installed, from Arch/CachyOS repos, namely 0.16.1 (42f49eeb).

It's not at all about looks, it's about a different kind of handling, for off road, that's mutually exclusive with on road handling.

Yes, some people choose to emulate off road appearances, such as with fake bead locks and then only ever drive their vehicle on road. That doesn't discount the fact that there are a great many explicit choices you can make in designing and building a vehicle that sacrifice on road performance for off road performance.

Tandem Health | Senior/Staff Software Engineers | On-site in Stockholm, Sweden | Full time

At Tandem Health we're building a clinician copilot to allow clinicians to focus on care rather than administration. We’re building, launching and iterating quickly, and are already rolling out across some of the largest care chains across Europe, including most of the NHS.

Our core product listens in to the patient-clinician encounter to generate medical records, allowing clinicians to save 5-10 minutes per patient. No longer do clinicians have to catch up on administration after hours. Some even tell us that their partners notice they're much more relaxed after starting to use our product, and we couldn't be happier :)

We’re expanding our Stockholm team with exceptional engineers! We use Python (backend), TypeScript/React (frontend) and C# (Windows app) and our infrastructure runs on Kubernetes in Azure. We’re especially keen to talk to Staff Engineers (backend) and Senior AI Engineers (e.g. LLMs and the scaffolding around, computer-use agents)

Even if we don’t have a role out your specific skill set, we’d love to talk! Our tech team is small but growing and you’ll have an outsized impact on an important problem.

More info at https://www.tandemhealth.ai/recruitment

Feel free to reach out to john.moberg@tandemhealth.ai if you have any questions

Greenhouse gas emissions shouldn't be the only factor people consider for sustainability of their food. In the case of fish, this very article talks about the issues with farmed fish. Even a plant-based diet can be filled with unsustainable sources, such as plantations that destroy endangered habitats for palm oil, or industrial farming operations that spray lots of pesticides to harm the insect population and allow lots of fertilizer runoff into natural waterways. We're still polluting and depleting resources for many many vegetarian foods in the world.

I'd argue that if we're looking for a full top-to-bottom sustainable food system, animals will play a role. But we need to be cognizant of the whole system, not playing whack-a-mole with issues.

From her letter:

> The consistent pattern of bias against conservative figures demonstrated by Google’s AI systems is even more alarming. Conservative leaders, candidates, and commentators are disproportionately targeted by false or disparaging content.

That's a little rich given the current administration's relationship to the truth. The present power structure runs almost entirely on falsehoods and conspiracy theories.
by tracker1 | 2025-11-03 17:02:12+00:00
Yeah, without a deeper understanding it's really hard to say... just the surface level look, I'm not really at all interested in diving deeper myself. I'd like to like it... I tried out a test install a couple times but just felt it was clunky. Having a surface glance at the org and a couple of the projects, it doesn't surprise me that it felt that way.

libuv has provided an async interface for io using a worker thread pool for a decade, no dependency on io_uring required. I guess the threadpool they mention that aiofiles uses is written in python, so it gives concurrency but retains the GIL, so no parallelism. Node's libuv async stuff moves all the work off the main thread into c/c++ land until results are ready, only when dealing with the completed data read event does it re-enter the NodeJS "GIL" JavaScript thread.
by estimator7292 | 2025-11-03 17:02:40+00:00
Yeah, I've found LLMs to be pretty decent at frontend stuff.

I got a new job recently and my main task has been overhauling a Claude generated app into something functional. The backend is an unsalvageable disaster, but the frontend is actually pretty good. Which is great for me because I suck at UIs.

I think if you have a solid backend already in place, an LLM can produce a pretty functional frontend with far less effort to fix up.

In Safari 26 on an M1 with WebGPU enabled I get "InvalidStateError: GPUCommandEncoder.beginComputePass: Unable to begin compute pass."

In Chrome I get "Failed to start: Failed to create State. Caused by: failed to find GPU adapter."

So I guess it runs on "some" GPUs, in "some" browsers!

The US got (justifiably) yelled at for the war in Iraq, and again (less justifiably) in Libya and Afghanistan, and took the leas that military interference is always wrong, despite the obvious counterexamples of Syria and Crimes.

This is complicated by a lot of the yelling coming from US peace activists, who took advantage of their complete vindication in Iraq (and Vietnam before that) to pretend that there's a through-line and preventing a dictator from bombing dissidents or a naked land-grab-war-of-aggression is identical to starting our own naked-land-grab-war-of-aggression.
